Incremental Multimodal Graphs Declare one traceable feature model, store expensive multimodal outputs once, then query the same facts across LanceDB, Lance Graph, DuckPGQ, and LadybugDB. The graph engine should be a choice, not a rewrite. georgheiler.com/2026/06/29/i...

The fact that the US government specifically ordered the suspension of Fable access to non-US citizens (www.anthropic.com/news/fable-m...) raises exactly the kind of technological sovereignty concerns I discussed in my QCon keynote a few months ago (www.infoq.com/presentation...)
Statement on the US government directive to suspend access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5
The US government has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States.

Stacked PRs and AI Worktrees | Georg Heiler
AI coding agents increase output, but they also increase pressure on code review and branch management. Stacked pull requests and isolated worktrees help keep changes small and easy to integrate.
