Tweet that reads Leo Xander @STALLEON Stop taking social media so serious. Nothing here is real. Look at this chicken V - it is bigger than the car
I think about this tweet every time I feel something online start to curl its annoying little grip into my head
You often hear "software development is changing, and we must adapt" because of Claude Code.
But for my entire career, code has been the *easiest* part of making shit people care about, and we still haven't adapted.
The easier coding becomes, the less often we ask "do users actually NEED this?"
I became Senior VP at a multi-million dollar company at age 26. My salary was $600k. This was in 2018. How did I do it? Blacked out lines CEO (my dad) promoted me to SVP. There are no gimmicks. There are no shortcuts.
This is blackout poetry to me
The only biosphere in the known universe capable of supporting human life is being turned into a hell planet because most of Earth's governments refuse to stop trying to satisfy the insatiable greed of a plutocracy composed of people who already have more money than they could spend in 20 lifetimes.

Java + scripting vibes?
JBang makes it real.
I wrote a hands-on walkthrough showing how to build real tools in a single Java file—CLI apps, API callers, even tiny Quarkus services.
Fast, fun, and surprisingly powerful.

If everything is a top priority, then everything gets done quickly. That's basic management
Some helpful advice for all you software devs:
- You cannot solve social problems with code
- You cannot improve a system until you understand why it works the way it does
- You cannot produce tools for someone else without understanding how they work and what they're trying to accomplish
Diese Warnung ist unmissverständlich.
@francescabria.bsky.social & @josebautista.bsky.social haben das Vorgehen von US-Big-Tech kartografiert.
Ihre Fazit: Ein autoritäres Netzwerk ist auch hier dabei den Staat zu privatisieren.
Wir müssen #Palantir & Co den Stecker ziehen bevor es zu spät ist.

Wenn wir doch nur so akribisch die Lücken bei der Steuervermeidung o. Cum-Cum schließen würden, wie CDU & SPD das gerade beim Draufhauen auf die Ärmsten dieser Gesellschaft tun.
Es wären Milliardensummen im dreistelligen Bereich, die wir zur Verfügung hätten – & niemanden tuts weh.
The cover to the book, "Writing Your Own Program: Creating A Database: Adventure Game." Each line is in its own font. The computer (a black affair with rainbow keys" depicts a scuba diver swimming, handcuffs in hand, as it is attacked by a giant cross octopus; the painted octopus is literally bursting out of the monitor. A tiny little banner in the corner states: "For Commodore 64 And Apple IIe Computers"
Man, 80s computer books made even non-relational databases look fun. (Source.)
AI Agents are usually only one part of a workflow. If you use them to decide which action happens next, you need to ensure that action executes durably, especially when there are costs involved (API calls, database transactions, external services).
AI content is the new microplastic.
I'm just eight instances of Claude Code in a trenchcoat

Bohniger Brennpunkt
A photo oof a Macintosh SE on a Macintosh Table, a wooden stylised kind of 80s looking table, with a glass vase of blue purple (irises?), external drive, mousepad and a pen & writing folder next to it, and an actual clock. to the lower left is a cabinet attached to the inside of the desk with books, probably real manuals, standing up in it. The whole scene is in front of a stonewashed denim looking photographic backdrop.
This is as far as computing should have ever been allowed to get.
One of the ways that LLM-authored code improves productivity is by merely SAYING it does things. It's way faster than the whole time-consuming process of actually doing things. This is real code someone sent to me for review. A screenshot of a code editor. The line numbers are in the lefthand column, running from 121 to 125. There is a comment that says "Verify packages were created and check sizes" Then line 123 says echo Verifying Lambda packages were created... and Line 124 says echo checkmark emoji colon All Lambda packages verified successfully. There is no line in here that actually did anything.
UNLIMITED VELOCITY
👍 Really good article
😉 I would just nitpick on the fact that AI agents can help on other tasks than just coding
