Everyone is aware that definition and responsibilities of software engineers are changing, quite swiftly. But to which direction? Can we at least portray the short term requirements?

Github announced they are moving their servers to Azure yesterday.

In an unrelated incident, Github experienced a proper outage today.

From Staff Engineer's Path about importance of building experience for being a good role model:

> Experience comes through time, exposure, and study—not innate aptitude.

So, don't let AI kill your learning process.

We should also acknowledge that for most AI startups that have not yet found product-market fit: they are racing agains the clock. Most probably have ~6 months (or less) to gain serious traction: else they will prob have to fold / sell

It's much higher pressure than in the past.

I love mapping culturally established idioms between different languages. Just figured out "destur var mı?" in Turkish can be translated into English as "you decent?"

Netanyahu began this war with his attack on Iran. In the process, he sabotaged US-Iran negotiations on nuclear issues and assassinated Ali Shamkhani, Iran’s lead nuclear negotiator.

The US must not be dragged into another illegal Netanyahu war – either militarily or financially.

Despite codecompanion.olimorris.dev, AI assistance in neovim is way behind VSCode or similar editors' experience, especially when it comes to agent mode.

neovim is not an IDE of course, before AI assistants the trade-off made sense, but now, the tide is not on neovim's side.

This blog is SO good at pointing out what should have been obvious about AI for coding (Copilot and others)

These tools are good for re-creating whatever they’ve been trained on.

They are not what will create the next, better generation of frameworks, libraries, technologies.

Türk kahvesi kötü bir kahve. Demleme yöntemi belli bir seviyeye kadar kabul edilebilir, zira üst seviyeye de çıkamaz, ancak tr'deki kahve çekirdeği seçimi, öğütülmüş muhafaza edilmesi vs baya rezil.

Working on IAM is not always fun, although absolutely necessary. If you feel AWS IAM is terrible, which can happen sometimes, try setting up IAM for a pet project in GCP. Then try Oracle. AWS will feel like oasis
