maya🌻@maya.is.fckn.gay · 2d agothe only way to create good software is to have software developers with leverage that can enforce their discipline. this is why 1) foss cannot solve everything, and 2) why it will stay bad until we organize like the tradespeople we should consider ourselves but don’t due to lack of solidarity

LLMs write way _way_ too much. I don't know if you understood it enough for me to ask questions back. They don't use reasoning, so is it real? If you didn't care enough to write it, do I care to read it?

only alice could call me a hater in a blog post and still make me feel loved
Alice I Cecile@alice-i-cecile.bsky.social · last mo.AI: virtually no subject provokes such vitriol in my communities.

And so, dear hater, I must write: shaping.systems/blog/ai-suck...
went to bed yesterday in the afternoon. slept for 16 hours. not straight - woke up around 23:00, ate something, then drifted off again under the pillows. my confused body really enjoyed laying in bed and napping in the middle of the night, very curious
gmtk jam 2026 is underway, and that means it's time to write bevy PRs instead of implementing gameplay
I am exasperated with people accusing programmers of "gatekeeping" programming. We were practically dragging people through the gate. Do you know why a mindless LLM can tell you so much great programming information? It's because we've been sharing that information for free online for decades.
my blog has an rss feed now. though i need to make it discoverable instead of as a secret route (selvmaya.com/blog/feed)
liberal programmer whose ideological battle is being the decider of how much LLM psychosis is too much for their ingroup
i dont mean to come off rude to people i’d like to remain friendly with, but it is bad to imply that merely arguing *against* LLM products (even if done nonexpertly) is Problematic somehow. committing to this stance will unlock atheist hell

a weird side effect of improving your skills in game dev is that moving to the right on this chart prevents you from enjoying quite a lot of the simpler things often required of you I could easily make a game like X or Y, but I don't enjoy it anymore, so now I have to come up with a new challenge
OH: so there’s the theory that if you’re a woman who’s bisexual you have ADHD, but my theory is that if you are bisexual and have ADHD you’re a woman
bring back being kind (adding a reference to what you are talking about instead of vagueposting in order to feel like you’re part of a secret club of people in the know)

"AI cannot take responsibility, and we can't trust heavy users of AI to understand their code enough to fix it." @godotengine.org gets it. 👍
Open source game engine Godot will no longer accept AI-authored code contributions: 'We can't trust heavy users of AI to understand their code enough to fix it'

There's a lot here worth thinking about, and it puts in words some of the feelings I was having that motivated me to leave Google. I'm *also* quite worried about more direct autocratic control of US-based AI, there are signs of this starting to happen.
