Where's the Shovelware? Why AI Coding Claims Don't Add Up
78% of developers claim AI makes them more productive. 14% say it's a 10x improvement. So where's the flood of new software? Turns out those productivity claims are bullshit.

Turns out Google made up an elaborate story about me uploading a controversial video about "my trip to Israel" where I learned how wrong I was about the conflict.

Accessibility is an area Mixxx has struggled with for a long time, and as an all-volunteer project we have struggled to recruit devs to address it. If you have a passion for accessibility and are interested in a chance to have a big impact, hit us up.

Worth a watch just to see how they think/talk about this, even if you're focused on other platforms. And music badly needs this.

Mixxx Stable 2.5.1 Released!
This release contains a lot of improvements, fixes, new and improved controller-mappings. Remember, you don't have to be a programmer to contribute to Mixxx. Translating, testing and checking for possible regression is just as important.

Just heard a story from a friend who works in a different company. Apparently, they judge their dev team's output according to the number of lines of code they write. Amazingly, one dev recently got in trouble for his optimisation work, which removed a few hundred lines.
