A blog about making culture. Since 1999.
There are (sort of) two kinds of coders: those who see it as just a well-paying, stable job, and those who do it on nights and weekends because they love it, and it’s part of their identity. Today’s LLM tools now enable an individual to essentially be an entire software _factory_, and this is going to impact those 2 kinds of coders very differently — especially in how they respond to *both* of their bosses trying to put them out of work.

Once his not-even-half-baked plan failed to materialize in Iran, it’s clear that there’s no Plan B.
"The hardest thing for the #media to wrap its hands around over the last year is that Donald #Trump has no plan — for anything, ever... In each public appearance and social media post, the Mad King Donald Trump spouts a string of words, devoid of meaning or purpose, that may or may not represent anything at all."
The #American #president is very very mentally unwell. The world is in the grip of a very stupid madman.

They’re saying the quiet part out loud now.

The war on Iran has put fossil-fuel prices centre stage, but don’t believe those who tout ‘maximising the North Sea’ as our salvation, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot
Monbiot nails it again.
> If it is sometimes hard to tell the difference between fossil-fuel lobbyists and the billionaire press, this is because there isn’t one. For the sake of the ultra-rich, we are all being gaslit.

Senator Ron Wyden says that when a secret interpretation of Section 702 is eventually declassified, the American public “will be stunned” to learn what the NSA has been doing. If you…
The #Wyden Siren Goes Off Again: We’ll Be “Stunned” By What the #NSA Is Doing Under Section 702 - "If you’ve followed Wyden’s career, you know this is not a man prone to hyperbole — and you know his track record on these warnings is perfect."

As energy prices tripled in the 1970s due to Middle Eastern wars, Scandinavia, France and the Netherlands sped up green transition

AWS has suffered at least two incidents linked to the use of AI coding assistants. See full article...
1. YES THEY ARE.
They are vibe-coding mission-critical AWS modules. They are generating tech debt at scale. They don't THINK that that's what they're doing. Do you think most programmers conceive of their daily (non-LLM) activities as "putting in lots of bugs"? No, that is never what we say we're doing. Yet, we turn around, and there all the bugs are.
With LLMs, we can look at the mission-critical AWS modules and ask after the fact, were they vibe-coded? AWS says yes
