“The problem most companies struggle with is that they're "terminally bad at running software projects effectively." Adding AI to the mix doesn't solve this problem – it just adds a whole new range of ways that software deployment can fail.” — pluralistic.net/2026/08/01/d... #AI

An organization with front-end and back-end teams cannot work from stories, at least not in a way that's cost (and time) effective. 6/6

There are no "front end" or "back end" stories, for example, because you don't have value without both front and back ends. This thinking, of course, impacts everything from architecture to team structure. 5/6

Let’s say I‘d need non-GitHub repository hosting that I’d ideally would choose Codeberg for, but can’t due to policy reasons (repo growing too large due to amount of binaries I need to host). Where would I go?

I‘ve heard someone using the term “pretendgineer” today, and I think I’m gonna use this for all the vibe coders from now on. 🙂 #ai

Yup! It's official. Spring Cloud Contract is becoming stubborn.sh

I guess if anyone translates „user experience“ into „Benutzererfahrung“ ever again, I’ll set something on fire. 🙄😔

Is there really no way on MacOS to define DNS settings per Network? I'd like a dedicated DNS server to be used on my home network, but not on any other? Looks like the DNS settings are to be configured on the general WiFi settings. 🤔

After 20 years of avoiding Telekom services like the plague, I needed to interact with them. Now I'm convinced Kafka had been their customer before writing “The Castle.” Tl;dr: they happily take your money but don't allow you to log in with the email address you just used during the order process. 🙄

Ich höre, dass diese Regelung wohl in Teilen doch nochmal bis Freitag überarbeitet wird. Viel Chaos im Gesetzgebungsprozess jedenfalls.

Die Bundesregierung will am Freitag noch schnell weitere Verschärfungen bei der Umsetzung des neuen GEAS durchbringen. Asylsuchende aus Ägypten, Bangladesch, Indien, Kolumbien, Marokko, Türkei und Tunesien bekommen dann Arbeitsverbote und müssen unbefrist in Lagern bis zur Abschiebung leben.

Two things can be true at the same time: 1. AI companies use every opportunity they find to feed the hype and exaggerate their capabilities. 2. Holding back a particular model and working with OS projects used in critical infrastructure, as revealing lots of CVEs unfixed could've been a disaster.
