A short masterclass in how the left lost to Trump: Call your allies fascists, lie about facts anyone can look up or knows personally, and reply-then-block.

@[email protected] wow sure thing "he who speaks for women" because y'know what all women everywhere famously can't do without? Sports. Back in the real world, anyone of any gender can and should be able to play sports, in teams of their choice, without having their genitals inspected or policed or in any way relevant to the sport. And people like you, who believe that they deserve to know what's in somebody else's pants as a precondition for that person playing sports, you can fuck right off, you fascist fuck

I've blogged: AI and readable APIs
AI and readable APIs
In the AI age the importance of readable APIs goes up, as this can mean the difference between not reading the code because it’s too much, and easily reading it to verify it is correct because it’s tiny. It’s been pretty clear that one of the superpowers of AI development is that it happily deals with enormous amounts of boilerplate and workarounds in a way that would drive a human insane. But we need to be careful of this, and notice that this is what is happening.

Using Claude for spellchecking and grammar
On the pytest discord channel Sviatoslav mentioned a pull request with a bunch of spelling and grammar fixes. We had a discussion about the morality of not disclosing that it was an AI driven pull request up front, but what was pretty clear was that the quality was surprisingly high. Since I have a project with extensive documentation that I’ve spelled checked thoroughly this interested me. I write all the documentation with PyCharm which has built in spelling and grammar checks, so I was thinking it would be hard to find many errors.
Plögi ist umgezogen@b0rk totally get you there. I've abandoned Django a while back but recently I made two projects in it because it just was a perfect fit and it's so much fun.
If I may recommend something: I've used https://iommi.rocks for the frontend.
I've release another iOS app. This one has changed my life actually. I really believe in this! https://apps.apple.com/se/app/venja/id6747004428?l=en-GB
@daringfireball Moving fast IS breaking things. The faster, the more breakage. Just ask Mao or Stalin.
If you run too fast you don't notice when the direction is wrong until it's far too late. If democrats go this way they will be the problem too.
