Honestly when I saw the early trailers I was a little disappointed. I think it could have done with a more obscure actor for Grace. And surprised they’re showing Rocky in the trailers. He was a big reveal in the book so odd to give it away before the it starts!
Of course I’ll still watch it :-)

Brings back memories. I used to have an apartment on Amstelveenseweg at the edge of the park. Late ‘90s. Happy days. One of my favourite parks.

Both Marvin and Eddie were great though. Less so the doors. I can imagine Fuckerburg creating GPP doors.

It’s almost an island. There is a watery route across the top. Similar to manhattan being almost an island.

So long as the American acknowledges the work of the German, that’s ok. Lüften has a CC BY or CC BY-SA license right? 🤣

I would avoid people that bang out “50+ apps using vibe coding” … that’s disrespectful to real devs and the potential customer.

What they might call a “dumb refactor” I might call the height of development artistry!

Is that facilitating a task or just taking the soul and spirit of the original body of devs that did this the first time. As a 40 year veteran of software development, I’m still unsure how I feel about it.

It’s a tricky stance to take because there are some bsky / AT proto developers that admit to using AI coding tools “dumb refactors, threading config through a bunch of files, boilerplatey stuff, fixing some syntax thing or when you don't know how to use a package right etc”.

The first time I visited Moscow it was so hot - mid 30s °C (mid 90s °F) - that these ice cream sellers were super welcome.
