Back when I first got a cellphone and slowly started forgetting phone numbers I remember thinking "OK that is scary, it really didn't take long for me to forget something that used to be second nature for me"

It has been 25-30 years since then, and today I have no idea what the phone numbers of even my closest peers is. Not using that skill just entirely obliterated it from my brain over time. I am not even sure how much effort it would take to get back into it.

This post is about vibe coding.

ACM will no longer require disclosure of the use of #generativeAI in writing papers.... an absolutely terrible change by the @ACM Publications Board to the Policy on Authorship.

Yes, this will give ACM more papers. No, the ideology of "number go up" productivism is not the path to responsible, ecological or ethical computing, but to irrelevance. #AIslop

Controversial opinion:

The point at which a video game should be remade/remastered is when the original user experience finally makes the game inaccessible to modern players.

Every 3D Zelda game before BotW has terrible UX and it's fine to redo them with modern controls and inventory management.

Also: we don't need a Skyrim remaster, but man I can't wait for one of the fifteen Morrowind remake projects to finish because it was one of my favorite games and it's completely unplayable in 2026.
