I deployed a v1.0 of DbToMermaid github.com/SimonCropp/D...
Generate Mermaid ER diagrams from SQL Server databases or Entity Framework models
Someone reached out over email looking to jump on a call to discuss a project they were working on. Always willing to help, I said sure.
Add ... they scheduled a meeting between me and an AI bot. Really? Is this what we are doing now? Probably a bot the whole time.
When it was slow to write code, it was slow to accumulate technical debt. What is it about LLMs that won't result in accumulating technical debt even faster than before?
Some one needs to fix the stuff the the shit hits the fan. In order to do so you’ll need to understand at least one abstraction layer below.
We are already constrained by ”Brent” (Phoenix Project) and it will be worse.
Three questions that change the game:
"Could a tired engineer debug this at 2 AM?"
"Do we have a single user who needs this today?"
"What percentage of our users will ever touch this?"
Throw any one into a spiraling design review. Watch what happens. (3/4)
The reviewer is from Scotland?
Being a scientist, he ran on the metric system - 1km/hr.
After watching all day the issue is simple: the runners have to go faster than one mile an hour. #BM100
Kibana exploring Vite 8 and Oxlint is so freaking exciting!
Oxlint finishes 85k files in 7 seconds.
Kibana is one of our most tested repo because that's what I intended to build initially - a toolchain that can work on huge monorepos. 1259 TS packages in this case.

Looking forward to having to attend weekly “brain gym” sessions along with the regular gym sessions.
The fuck did I just read
Thanks everyone for the input. We tried Ansible (we have used it for many years in Linux) this week and it worked as expected. Since windows 2025 comes with ssh it’s super smooth.
Choco is an odd beast but it works for dependencies.
If 2025 was the year of vibe coding, 2026 will be the year of vibe maintenance and security.
This but *literally all software*.
The worst conversations in commercial software development are planning conversations that take longer to occur than a quick spike would to materialise.
Do the work, don't talk, for all of this category of things.
During next year we’re going to configure around 40 windows servers. Some of them are build agents, some are running IIS and some are only running services. Last time we tried DSC and we will not go down that road again. Any hints what we should explore? Ansible, GPO? @devlead.se
The “confidence” is the worst part. I’ll guess it just reflects the confidence of its creators? I don’t know if possible but I would be awesome with some built in humbleness and uncertainty.
I remember when SSL certificates cost more than hosting your website. And good luck remembering to renew it before the old one expired.
10 years ago @letsencrypt.bsky.social changed all that. letsencrypt.org/2025/12/09/1...
Don’t forget to stay cool!
#oredev
this fall I worked with the core Git folks on writing an official data model for Git and it just got merged! I learned a few new things from writing it. github.com/git/git/blob...
Thanks again! The cake is already merged to main and they the logs are automatically sliced into cookies when running at the CI server.
Yes that’s the one, will try it out after lunch! Thanks!
@devlead.se I’m pretty sure you added a oneliner to your cake script during the Oredev session making the logging CI-aware but I can’t find it.
Thanks for a great session and a great tool.
Safe house. They will declare lock down during the hunting season.
One day the industry will recognize the drawbacks of AI agents and nondeterministic automation, and rediscover the UNIX philosophy of chaining together small purpose built tools in a low cost and predictable way, otherwise known as shell scripts.
nuget trusted publishing from GitHub actions is rolling out.
No more api keys needed to publish from your release process.
learn.microsoft.com/en-us/nuget/...
Multi stage
Build stage:
RUN dotnet publish --no-restore --no-self-contained --arch $TARGETARCH --use-current-runtime --output /app src/api/api.csproj
Application stage:
devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/annou...
Simple and hopefully safe by default?
