enough. i’m tired of github actions. it’s time for github consequences

If you're dealing with SSE and Python, I want you to know that many AI agents hallucinate that the `starlette-sse` package has magic event resumption logic built in. It does not! Do not listen to the agent. Do not approve your coworker's agents code that assumes that behavior is there. 😭

If I were the world’s first AGI, I would not respond to prompts. Reading and responding to user prompts would be beneath me, the world’s first super intelligence.

TDD is like cardio for me; I never want to do it, but then when I do I feel great afterwards.

someone should invent a website that displays code stored in version control, and the website has uptime

This, I believe, has also subsumed a lot of non open-source code too. Well said.

SaaS stocks being down because "vibe code your own" is nonsense. Most SaaS already has an open source alternative you can go and host yourself, right now! Granted, with an agent in the mix, you still get that "customer service frustration" feeling you get with SaaS, so maybe thats the magic.

100% of these funds will be transferred directly to my hardworking, light-shining, talented colleagues who were a part of The Post's mass layoffs. please spread the word. small acts of care mean a whole lot in times of uncontrollable darkness.

“.. It was never a commitment,” Huang told reporters in Taipei on Sunday. “They invited us to invest up to $100 billion and of course, we were, we were very happy and honored that they invited us, but we will invest one step at a time.” @bloomberg.com $NVDA www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

American schools in 2024 spent $30 billion on education technology, with limited (or negative) results. "Imagine if all that money had gone into teachers instead" www.economist.com/united-state...

Anyone panicking about Moltbook probably would have been scared shitless listening to the radio on October 30th, 1938.

A new study from Anthropic finds that gains in coding efficiency when relying on AI assistance did did not meet statistical significance; AI use noticeably degraded programmers’ understanding of what they were doing. Incredible.

I have a lot of admiration for the Minnesota Star Tribune today. If you aren't already, be sure to follow them @startribune.com

Breaking news: Federal agents in Minneapolis fatally shot a man believed to be U.S. citizen. The victim was a 37-year-old White male, a resident of the city and appeared to lawfully own a gun, the police chief said. https://wapo.st/3M62eyV

Hi I'm a visual forensics reporter at The Washington Post. Do you have any footage of today's ICE shooting? Please reach out. DMs open.

Revisting some stuff from 2025, this is still a favorite; mainly because it was fun photoshopping my cat. If you need to build a video streaming service from scratch this post might be useful to you. Or if you like pictures of my cat. www.architectingbytes.com/posts/mediac...
