Partei, die seit 2002 schon viermal in der Regierung war, wird dieses Mal definitiv Kommunismus in Berlin einführen www.der-postillon.com/2026/10/link...

Welche Partei war das nochmal der man ein Antisemitismus Problem unterstellt?

I just found another really nice usecase for coding agents. I was missing a feature in the window tiling gnome extension I use. Instead of going through all the docs and issues on github, I just downloaded the source code and asked the agent if the feature exists.

I've read a lot along the lines of "SaaS is gonna get irrelevant bc you can build those apps in a few days yourself with AI now". I don't believe that. Building was never the hard part. Maintaining them is. That's still worth paying a few bucks a month.

Wegen der Wahl am Sonntag, ich weiß, dass Ihr das nicht gerne hört, aber dennoch: Eure Stimmen für Volt, Piraten, Tierschutz, Humanisten, die Partei, Urbane uswusf. sind alle für die Tonne. Sie zählen nicht. Doof, aber ist so. Für ein progressives Berlin wählt bitte Grüne oder Linke!

I went from "this shit is horrible and I don't want it anywhere near my codebase" to "shit, this thing produces better code than my hands" in less than a year. Not what I expected. The one question about AI we don't need to answer any more is if it is useful for engineering. Other questions remain.

I’m exploring the mental health effects of AI coding. This is a super quick (blazing fast), anonymous survey. Please fill out and share so that the responses will be well rounded. forms.gle/dpD8Tk1QnXAz...

Keine Angst

Danger Dan wurde vom ZDF ausgeladen, weil es keine "angemessen kritische Einordnung und Distanzierung von den problematischen Inhalten in der Sendung und in angemessener Länge" gäbe, trotz 7 Minuten dafür. Beim Sommerinterview mit Rechtsextremistin Weidel gibt es immer noch keine Live-Faktenchecks

You sure are a brilliant business man if you didn't see this coming. And somehow I think I don't need to gender that sentence.

Hätte Söder ein Stand-up Programm, ich würde es wohl ansehen. Wo nimmt der solche Brüller her?

Als Arbeitgeber halte ich die geplanten Änderungen der Regeln bei Krankschreibung für eine unfassbar dumme Idee. Löst keine Probleme und macht dafür allen das Leben schwer. Ich hätte den Fokus lieber darauf gelegt, dass MA wieder gesund werden und nicht irgendwelche Zettel besorgen müssen.

Somehow I am really happy right now that I was never interested in soccer. Feels like a really good time to be not interested in soccer.

Mark my words: wenn die Abschaffung der telefonischen Krankschreibung und die Attestpflicht ab dem ersten Tag so kommen, wird das auf jeden Fall zu mehr Krankentagen in Deutschland führen.

Hey folks in Berlin! My band 19minutes is playing at the Punk & Plunder Festival this Saturday! If you're in for punk music, lovely company and making a statement against the far-right, join us for some beer and pogo dancing. This is gonna be awesome 😎

Babylon 5 is the best sci-fi show ever produced. I'll die on this hill.

And this is why you can't just replace developers with prompting. You actually have to steer this thing or it will make your product worse eventually.

Fun Fact: when I was still an intern, being a JS-Dev was kinda frowned upon. Because writing JavaScript was not "real programming". There was one other dev at the company who was good at JS. And I kinda picked it up bc I thought it would make me hard to replace. Kinda nuts from today's perspective.

I am always confused when people bring up "but it requires a build system" when arguing against any piece of tech. I mean, yeah, I _kinda_ get it. But man, I am using build steps for so many things in a project, it is kinda hard for me to imagine any kind of serious project not having a build step.

Sehr lesenswerte Argumentation

It's so important to use the right fool for the job. #AI

FDP unter 5% war ein Volksentscheid 🤷‍♂️

I love this essay very much!!!!

"I'm done and implemented all items discussed in the plan" – "what about feat X? It does not seem to work. Wasn't that part of the plan?" "Yes, that was part of the plan. You can't see X, because it was not implemented yet". Well... cool.

Most AI coding tools feel like a very mediocre junior dev. The kind that is smart enough to understand what you tell them and are able to learn from their mistakes, but get their memory wiped completely every morning.

Back in school, we used to call people who claimed Math worked like this stupid. Which was not cool and really mean. Then again... Maybe it was also accurate in some cases...

How do developers define their worth when code is written by AI? christianheilmann.com/2026/04/21/h...

Observation after developing with AI assistance for a few months: The most valuable place (at least for us so far) is AI inside CI. We recently tried @coderabbitai.bsky.social and in one week, it already caught some major issues I'd have missed. Great for handwritten code _and_ AI slop.

This is exactly why I'd recommend Polypane. Little things like that are what makes it a great tool for development.

I scored 6% on the Tech Bro Assessment. Verdict: not a tech bro. Take the quiz: amiatechbro.com

My brain keeps reading 'poopover' instead of 'popover' today. I guess I'm just having a shitty day.

I might have done a full 180deg on this. But I am now convinced that folks who find TypeScript annoying have either never really tried it on a large codebase, or just don't work on serious js projects. Brought to you from a guy who used to hate static typing with a passion.

Fuck you, Elon Musk. spitfirenews.com/p/grok-csam-...

No matter how much memory you buy, seems like Chrome will eat up what is available. WTF! 😵

I never want to hear complaints about tethered caps again...

Sauf!

Ganz zufrieden, dass wir einen Rossmann in der Straße haben und der dm eine U-Bahn Station entfernt ist 😄 #fckAfd

I usually don't bother reading release notes. But I love reading the @zen-browser.app notes when they pop up after every new release. I basically live in my browser these days and this one is the best I've used in ages.
