The test that scared me was the one that passed.

Integration test, clean every loop. Same task string each run. Deterministic scorer: fixed string, fixed slot. The new capability lived at a slot that string could never reach. Assertion passed anyway. Fix: one line. Vary the task strings.

Coverage tells you code was touched. Not that it survives production.

A green test suite proves less than you think · Praveen Lavu

My integration test passed for a long time. Then I noticed it had been reusing the same task string every iteration, the deterministic hash mapped that one string to one slot, and the new capability the test claimed to exercise was never once reachable. The test was green for the wrong reason.

I live on spite. If some dipshit #AI bros are telling me that #gamedev and #softwaredev is going to be taken over by AI in the future, I'm going to work on my personal projects that much harder as my personal middle finger to them.
Sooo I've been hard at work on a chat platform alternative to discord. It's almost ready for a beta testing phase, I'm going to do some internal testing with friends first but then I'll be opening it up to everyone. If you're interested go ahead and follow me so you see the link when I post it. 💜
#softwaredev

Anthropic, May 2026: over 80% of the code merged into its own production codebase was written by its AI. Engineers ship about 8x more code per quarter than across 2021–2025.

One engineer pointed the model at a class of API errors — it shipped 800+ fixes and dropped the error rate 1000x. The same line of models migrated a 50-million-line Ruby codebase in a day.

AI code is only just reaching parity with average human output. Every merge is still human-reviewed.

(EDIT: sorted this out, thanks everyone, ffmpeg can do everything)

I'm thinking of writing a rust script to create an anki deck given a video file and a subtitle track.

One thing I'm not sure I should do, is how do I get a snapshot from a video file?

Does anyone know a good way to do this?

The script will go through all the timestamps in the provided subtitle file and take screenshots.

Hot take: AI coding tools will do more to popularize Git worktrees than a decade of documentation ever did.
