The biggest part of this so far has been that basically every other language I've learned since I learned C has let me basically write C in that language and Rust is just telling me to fuck off with that shit and I do admire that it's a language that has strong internalised boundaries

MCP is doing the heavy lifting here. I've written two "agentic" apps. I immediately realized I could improve both by replacing the LLM part with normal fucking code. The revolution here is MCP shoehorning API access into many more programs and services than we previously had https://worksonmymachine.substack.com/p/mcp-an-accidentally-universal-plugin

Hungary has banned anything that “promotes homosexuality,” which essentially means Pride. Today over 500,000 people in Budapest turned up for a Pride march and told the government to: 'Fuck off!'.

I have nothing against good parkour but I do miss the time when #bouldering competitions involved a lot of #climbing.

Of all places where #AI is now shoved, searching for products is somehow not very popular. Even though it's a case that makes a lot of sense. "I want a light functional long-sleeve base layer with UV protection and a hood, size M or L".

C'mon Amazon and Zalando, you can definitely manage it.

Explicit guidance from my boss that even though persons A and B are best and fastest at doing the task, we're going to use persons A and C and deliver it slower.

This is so that C learns and takes some of the pressure off A and B for later. Person D is queued up to for this later in the year.

We are choosing to deliver software more slowly so we can spread the knowledge out and not burn out two very good engineers. I never thought I'd work in a company like this.

After a good and much enjoyed break, I'm looking for my next role as (Sr.) Principal Software Engineer/ Head of Engineering/ VP of Engineering in a product company to help them grow and make an impact on standards, DX and innovation.

Remote is a big plus, hybrid (Berlin area) a must-have. Also Open Source and helping others, empower and lead by example are things I love.

Shares are appreciated. #FediHire

Seriously though, who looks at websites, noted for not being able to safely hang onto the already over the top volumes of personal information they collect unnecessarily, and says, “you know what these people need? a copy of everyones government issued ID.”
