I’ve heard “why should I bother to read something no one bothered to write” when it comes to AI-generated text.

It hurts me as a software developer to see people stop caring about code as a craft. People now seem happy now with code nobody bothered to write.

Vibe coding killed the vibe.

just 2 years ago I had organizers in my circle who felt all tech was bad and wouldn't even join a google meet call

now in my own group and others people are talking about self-hosting tools

hopefully won't take another 2 years to realize how hard it is to host infrastructure of any consequence

Outro dia falei da “era das notas de repudio”

A consequência é a inércia

Não adianta uma monte de governo e governante dizendo é inaceitável enquanto, na prática, continua aceitando

E, claro. A complexidade da trama de poderes e retaliação é parte disso

These days, out on a work trip, I wake up and see MIT through my window. It reminds me of Aaron Swartz and my dissertation on hacktivism.

I tried to re-read bits of it, but realized I had messed up the deploy and it wasn't available anymore.

Fixed! https://cuducos.me/hacktivism/

if your codebase needs extensive comments to be understood, you wrote bad code

good code is self-documenting. Variable names explain intent. Function names describe behavior. Structure reveals architecture

comments stating the obvious are admissions of failure

Ppl forget that AI doesn’t change some basics:

1. Evaluate on a single metric and engineers game it (we are smart enough)

2. Code is increasingly promoted by AI

3. The single best eng contribution can be… not shipping code!

4. A 1-character change can have massive impact

Etc etc

O caso do Luigi é de legítima defesa da sociedade na verdade.
Todo dia um bilionário tem o intento de matar direta ou indiretamente milhares de pessoas.
NEW: It appears billionaire Bill Ackman has donated $10k to a GoFundMe for Jonathan Ross, the ICE agent who killed Renee Good.

Ackman has reposted the fundraiser but hasn’t posted about his own donation.
