Yeah, the MacBook Neo looks cute. But it's telling how afraid the new Apple has become, that they go for such a low margin product. It's clearly a preemptive maneuver to counter Google's Aluminium OS devices.
Glimpse of a utopia:
FOSS won. Code projects, even those which are human-written, are mostly maintained by AI. Feature requests, issue tracking, CI/CD, and pull requests are all managed by agentic systems. Discussions are steered in productive directions, not driven by ego. Drama is rare.
I hate the re-soloing of development. We were so close to learning social skills, creating community, encouraging creativity & purpose, & applying empathy. Easier to manage if each of us is so busy with our genieswarms that we don't have time to talk & reflect.
“Helsinki hasn’t registered a single traffic-related fatality in the past year…Citing data that shows the risk of pedestrian fatality is cut in half by reducing a car’s speed from 40 to 30km/hr, city officials imposed the lower limit in most of Helsinki’s residential areas and city center in 2021.”
Armin and Ben are back for their third episode. High signal to noise ratio. www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0SY...
Go is full of nifty little helpers, this time govulncheck. This makes a lot of sense to avoid update fatigue. It's also an interesting perspective into how purely more automation doesn't make everything better. It also corresponds with a lot of noise easily. words.filippo.io/dependabot/
Thanks for the repost!
Interesting to see Ubuntu picking up the local LLM opportunity. Packaging everything in a Snap looks comfortable, but almost too rigid for my taste. www.youtube.com/watch?v=0CYm...
There's a story going around right now that goes something like this: AI makes us so efficient that we'll soon have more free time than we know what to do with.
It's a nice story. I don't think it's what's going to happen.

Sad news: Our early bird offering is over.
Good news: Time to announce the first speakers! Super happy to give you a sneak peak on the first confirmed speakers. More details on each speaker coming in the next days, so make sure to follow me, so you don't miss them!

Watched this yesterday. Good overview, really happy I deleted the app on my phone and only occasionally read up on individuals there, what a shithole.
How should people backup and monitor their self hosted instances, do you have recommendations for this?
The free, open-source alternative to Meetup. Create groups and events for your community — no fees, no ads, community-owned forever. ATproto continues to impress me, maybe we can try this out for our Agentic Coding Meetup Hamburg soon. openmeet.net/running-a-pd...
Half joking: This is what it's like to be a senior technical leader.
Ex-GitHub CEO Thomas Dohmke launches his new startup. Not entirely convinced they found the perfect solution already, but looking at their speed of implementation, this could get interesting. entire.io/company
Showboat and Rodney are clever additions for agentic engineering, enabling more closed feedback loops in the development cycle. This is such an exciting time for coders! simonwillison.net/2026/Feb/10/...
Whoa, the next gen of at-home APUs from AMD for local inference could almost triple their memory bandwidth, massively increasing the token/sec for LLM usage. www.tomshardware.com/pc-component...
... few years until they turn evil, too. The first protoypes are built to become truly independent, e.g. this one based on the ATProto protocol. openmeet.net/running-a-pd...
Maybe something we should try to out for one of our next Agentic Coding Meetups Hamburg?
So that's Bending Spoons winning strategy with Meetup.com? Make the platform so unattractive from a price-to-value perspective, that even the big players like Hashicorp exit, without a clear alternative in sight? People are clearly sick of moving from one monopolist to the other, just to hang out...
My newsletter started out covering 3D printing in 2024. I moved on to other topics, but a story on The Verge pulled me right back.
Across the US, a loose network of about 40 people with 3D printers has shipped over 200,000 whistles to 48 states. Read the full article with links on my blog below.

Another glimpse into the future. The productivity divide is widening fast: experienced engineers with agents are pulling away from the pack, and the gap to where we were in 2024 grows larger every month. lucumr.pocoo.org/2026/1/31/pi/
Sci-Fi with a touch of madness, it is exactly that! A social network for AI-powered agents, so they can exchange about their newest musings and ideas. www.moltbook.com

Great summary about personal usage of OpenClaw. Too dangerous for inexperienced hands, but clearly a glimpse into the future. www.robert-glaser.de/personal-ai-...
We updated our news blog on Agentic Hamburg. If you ever wanted to catch up on what happened in the past meetups or want to be up to date on what's coming next this is the place to be! agentic.hamburg/news/
Last week I visited tudock.de to give a two-day training on agentic engineering. I expected to teach. I ended up learning quite a bit myself.
