You know, I’d be happier if @teamlabouruk.bsky.social made policy as if they wanted to improve society and keep Labour voters rather than pandering to authoritarian-leaning people who’ll never vote for them.

I am pretty firmly convinced that for making changes in a codebase using AI, TDD is the way forwards. You write the test, which adds a sliver of functionality, then get the LLM to make the code work. Then tell it to refactor the bits that look ugly, or do it yourself by hand.

I see that we’ve got bored of “this is terrible” and decided to up the ante to “this is even more terrible” in some kind of bizarre sadomasochistic fashion.

I see we’re attempting to plumb new depths of terrible.

Well, to almost no one’s surprise, this continues to be awful.

Well, this is all continuing to be terrible.

We’re going to need some more ways of expressing schadenfreude than “FAFO” and the “leopard eating face party” thing because they’re going to be used a heck of a lot over the next few years.

Folks, please put the TL;DR section at the start of the thing I’m not going to read because it’s too long.
