Überweisung des Bundes an Microsoft: Was macht das mit euch?

2023: 274.091.361,75 Euro
2024: 347.665.579,71 Euro

Man stelle sich vor, was mit 1.103.126.602,23 € an Open Source Software in D hätte beschafft und entwickelt werden können.

In this age of "AI", that old dragon of measuring dev productivity by output has reared its head again.

The idea that "coding = productivity" still has a strong grip on our industry.

But what if coding is really when we're *least* productive?

Thanks for the reference. Exactly what I observe in our team. Just more code waiting for a manual spin on DEV. No change in overall speed.

While dev teams celebrate the speed of "AI" coding assistants, business stakeholders are increasingly asking why they're not getting to their destination any faster.

Allow me to explain.

How I wrote JustHTML using coding agents - Friendly Bit I recently released JustHTML, a python-based HTML5 parser. It passes 100% of the html5lib test suite, has zero dependencies, and includes a CSS selector...

Software development with AI / LLM:
“The agent did the typing; I did the thinking.”

It’s amazing how quickly the Go version of TypeScript was created. The key “trick” of the TS team was to port, not to rewrite: 2ality.com/2025/03/type...

Das Bild einer Entfremdung: Die Stipendiaten der Deutschlandstiftung Integration verlassen bei der Rede des Bundeskanzlers den Saal.
Viele wollen es nicht verstehen oder wahr haben, aber die Äußerungen des Kanzlers haben enorme Kränkungen verursacht.

Deutschlandticket: Kai Wegner zweifelt an der Zukunft der Finanzierung Mehr als 14 Millionen Menschen nutzen laut Bundesregierung das Deutschlandticket. Doch die Finanzierung verhandeln Bund und Länder immer wieder neu. Wie geht es weiter?

Wir subventionieren den Autoverkehr jährlich mit Milliarden, wissen aber zugleich dass der ÖPNV jährlich das dreifache seiner Kosten an Wertschöpfung generiert und deutsche Politiker diskutieren ernsthaft noch über die Zukunft des Deutschlandtickets 🙄

Co-pilot helps me go faster fixing bugs, but I'm spending less time reading and understanding the code myself.

Not sure if this is a good long term strategy.

The more AI is used in programming, the more I cannot 'unthink' about an 'AI Programming Paradox':

In order to be able to review AI generated code, you have to be an experienced developer, but you can never become an experience developer when all you do is reviewing AI generated code.

Have a potential #fsharp development job for full time hire. We are an #fsharp, DDD, CQRS, Event Sourcing team and looking to expand. We build Rockwell Automation's cloud backbone capabilities.

Location has some flexibility and we are a hybrid team with part time remote (2 days a week).

“AI Engineering is just software engineering with AI models thrown into the stack”

- Anton Bacaj in the book AI Engineering by @chiphuyen.bsky.social

Totally agree - and it’s why the easiest way to become an AI engineer is to be a software engineer… and learn to work with LLMs!

How @KentBeck thinks about AI coding tools and agents:

"They're like a genie. They grant your wishes... but not quite how you expect it. Then you tell it that it's not what you wanted.

'Oh, I'm sorry...'

The genie is good at apologizing. But it's not good at meaning it."
