I wrote an essay on vibe coding. "We are on the verge of abstracting away the layer that makes us really understand our applications at a programmatic level." You can read the rest of it here: michielberk.com/blog/an-essa...

AI fucked the internet. Now its coming for phone conversations. block.xyz/dessa

I asked ChatGPT what game genres would be cool to mix with Ironman mode / solo self found type servers where trading is not allowed and permadeath is a thing. It suggested Sports Management games. I'm officially done with ChatGPT. #gamedesign

Got order #no 404 today at KFC 🫠

I dont think giving ai agents an objective and closing off with 'Im going to bed, make me proud' is ever getting old.

Going to Barcelona and just found out Sagrada Familia tickets are sold out till november T_T Any other Barcelona-tips?

Any1 else finds OpenAI's 'dots' branding absolutely hideous?

Playing the fuck out of Valheim 1.0 btw

New firefox update has vibe code vibes all over it.

latency of about 1.5 years

O_o

Nice campaign by the Norwegian Consumer Council about the declining lifespan of products. Enjoy!

My coding agent: 'Lets map the blast radius before we proceed'.

Lmao (from @s.ly 's blog)

@eli.pizza any progress on adding new anthropic models to Claude Bridge or github.com/elidickinson... ?

Dario's proposed Embedded Evaluators basically cements the big labs at the top, because no small companies or open source initiatives within LLM-dev will be able to comply with 'regulation'. This is bad.

Yesterday 'slowing down ai' came up during a casual talk with non-techies. Its kinda crazy to realise Sam and Dario tooting ai development should be slowed down is basically incognito PR that reaches the masses. But Jason is on to something.

You want to know why your thing sucks now? There's a 50/50 chance it is secretly a web browser and site for no good reason instead of a real computer program. I don't know why we've turned many things that should not be web dev into web dev, but here we are.

I just took a break from work and decided to automate updates for the Valheim server in my livingroom. And automated daily, weekly and monthly backups. I could have played the damn game instead, but oh well. I've ascended to new nerd heights.

Really not enjoying Azure rn.

Nvidia bought Huggingface. Boooooo.

The best use case for javascript is updating the copyright notice in your websites footer automatically.

Should have done this 1.5 years ago, but finally migrated michielberk.com (and updated it too). So check if out if you want to know what I'm currently up to :-)

Calling the North Sea the East Sea from now on.

I'm back and I'm cooking. Migrating all my websites to a dedicated website-server in the process - moving the needle down from 10 bucks per website to 5,50 for 4 websites. More on the project soon.

So funny when you start digging around open source repo's of the greatest companies currently hockey-sticking and you find prompts like this "no word salad"

Ok hear me out. I am occasionally running Openclaw on a phone. I also have chromecast. Its serving me 5 ads in a row taking 75 seconds. That sucks. So I was thinking... home NAS/server meets multimedia always on-pc. Thoughts? What should I be looking for? Enough gpu for HD + some ram/cpu? Power?

If you cant explain in one sentence why your ai product solves the customers pain better than a Claude Code skill with bash or a custom Openclaw setup, why are you even building?

Leuke pet 😝

Institutional money made a bet that the productivity gains we're seeing in software engineering can be replicated across the board with white collar work. Which I believe to be wrong.

A half time should last 15 minutes. This shit should be enough to ban America for 20 years. Go back to your “football” with egg shaped balls that you’re supposed to throw to each other like some fancy outdoor version of korfbal

I now put some guardrails and extensions in Pi and I think I'm never going back. Made the whole thing look pretty with Zellij too. Oh and if you're a cli-guy and dont use Zoxide, you're missing out.

Only posts feed down. Rip I guess.
