This week Cloudflare shamelessly cloned and released the product of one of their primary competitors.

I'm beginning to wonder - if AI can rewrite software from scratch, without using any of the original code, do software licenses actually mean anything anymore?

Interesting! I donโ€™t entirely understand the threat modelling group. It seems inactive? (But very important?)

In Teylers tekende ik een uitgestorven loopvogel en bekeek ik de fossielen uit De Reuzensalamander van @jellereumer.bsky.social.

Opinion | The A.I. Disruption Weโ€™ve Been Waiting for Has Arrived

Exactly how I felt about AI code machines in recent months:

โ€œAfter decades of stories like those, I believe there are millions, maybe billions, of software products that donโ€™t exist but should: Dashboards, reports, apps, project trackers and countless others.โ€œ

Also Claude Code: discovering by accident that you can control thousands of robovacs (incl cameraโ€™s) because you want to control your own with a PS5 controller.

30. Tinkering with code machines โ€” Strook And a little nostalgia with Mega Man, HTML, and CSS

A new Strook about tinkering with code machines, which are impressive (and fun?), but also built on the work of a great webdesign community. Let's hope their values hold in a vibe coding world.

Mentions @anildash.com, @clivethompson.bsky.social, @cssday.nl and... Mega Man
