  #ai Thought for the Day When the dust finally settles, and the business cycle shifts back to workers being able to call the shots - as it will, all things return to a previous form - after being interviewed by AI, forced to work for AI, from AI-written specifications an tested by AI I will have even less loyalty to my team and company than I did before, and will be jumping ship every year for more money. Developers will want free rent as sign on bonuses, and serious stock. (except I won&#...

  "Ability to use AI coding tools such as Claude Code and Codex effectively while critically evaluating their output, refining it into well-designed, maintainable code rather than simply accepting the first working solution." They're all slowly realizing they fucked up, but won't admit it openly.... #AI #programming

  Did you ever notice that a Venn diagram of managers who say, "Take as much time as you need, but don't spend 'too much' time" and "Why can't you give me a solid time estimate?" is a circle? #programming

  Let's not lose site of the fact that Infantino could have just said "No" at this point We're late stages in the tournament. The tickets are sold. The contracts are signed. The advertisements are locked in. The tourists are in the US. The US won't be up for another hosting for years, long after Trump. The phone call was fucked up, but that wasn't the corrupt bit. #WC2026 #worldcup

  I'm still out there Web developer, strong database & front-end frameworks (#react #vue #angular ), mostly #php but I can work with apis in most languages given a little time to bone up Based in #japan , great for Asia or Aus/NZ time zones, US West Coast next best, but can work with Europe if it's not too much in-person meeting stuff all the time Oh, and did I mention testing? #phpunit #playwright #jest #codeception - and a firm belief that these are vital #getfediHired

  I've decided to put my volunteering opportunity search on hold for a bit (read an earlier post on the subject to help understand why) and focus on finding a "regular" or contract job for now, as well as finally really focusing on my #japanese Too exhausting doing what amounted to two separate job searches every single day So if you are in search of a full stack web dev, UTC+9 but pretty flexible, give me a shout! 🙏 I'm actually quite open to part-time o...

  As a programmer, I wish I could help people understand that the fastest part of any project is writing the code... Non-programmers always want to throw more code writers at a project to speed things up. The "Mythical Man Month" problem aside, the bottlenecks are all the legwork involved in defining the problem, the scope of this particular task, and fully testing it. Even before AI, writing code was fast and we already have a lot of tools to crank it out...if we're...

  OTD - Davy Crockett and around 200 others are killed at the Battle of the Alamo (1836) Your reminder (?) that the Texas Succession from Mexico - when the "Heroes" of the Alamo gathered round - was fought because Mexico had outlawed slavery, and the Texans still wanted it #Alamo

  #uspol #iran Just a reminder - according to the accepted conduct of war, if you sink an enemy ship, you are expected to make an honest attempt to rescue survivors unless it would put your own vessel in danger Of course that doesn't always happen, but the middle of the Indian Ocean was prolly a safe enough spot to take prisoners or deliver them to the nearest port

  Well, at least it wasn't a door. No one would be dumb enough to believe it if they had said "door" "Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents initially claimed Alberto Castañeda Mondragón had tried to flee while handcuffed and “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall,” according to court documents filed by a lawyer seeking his release." https://apnews.com/article/immigration-enforcement-minneapolis-hospitals-32cd5ca61d495e155d43b7cfd5e563b9 #uspol #ICE
