I wrote a short blog post about why BMAD and other spec-driven development tools will likely not help you fix the requirements bottleneck that arises from agentic development:

Spec-Driven Development is Domain-Driven Design’s Impatient Cousin

Spec-driven development tools like BMAD promise to fix the requirements bottleneck that agentic development teams face. But is it actually a good fit for your organisation?

@aha @rotnroll666 I don’t think the speed angle in my blog post is in any way in conflict with the linked paper because I, too, emphasize that you trade immediate gains for long term, sustainable velocity. At least I tried to made that point. 😉
@rotnroll666 Thanks for sharing my articles! Glad you like them!
@pmdj I heard that Easymile is shutting down the whole line of business. But still, making your public infrastructure so dependent on a single private operator is just ... bad.

@pluralistic I am sure you'll love this (link is in German):

https://www.deutschlandfunk.de/monheim-muss-autonomfahrende-e-bus-linie-vorerst-einstellen-100.html

English translation:

The North Rhine-Westphalian city of Monheim am Rhein is temporarily discontinuing its autonomously driving e-buses starting today.

The A01 started in 2020 as one of Germany's first autonomous bus lines. According to the city, the reason for the shutdown is that the French manufacturer Easymile is discontinuing technical support for the electric buses' software at the end of the month.

Verkehr - Monheim muss autonomfahrende E-Bus-Linie vorerst einstellen

Die nordrhein-westfälische Stadt Monheim am Rhein stellt ab heute ihre autonom fahrenden E-Busse vorerst ein.

Die Nachrichten
@teichstecher Oder Dosen-Ravioli. 😁

Bei Rossmann entdeckt, dass es mittlerweile sogar ein Wacken-Parfüm gibt. 🙃

Habe den Tester ausprobiert. Es riecht aber nicht nach Festival-Toilette oder dem Geruch tagelang ungeduschter Metalfans. Enttäuschend.

Gestern aus dem Spanien-Urlaub zurückgekommen, und an der ersten deutschen Raststätte gibt es den Schlüssel für den Wickelraum nur gegen Pfand (Ausweis oder Handy). Warum zur Hölle sollte ich den Schlüssel zum Wickelraum entwenden?

Der Kontrast zu den tollen Raststätten an den französischen Maut-Autobahnen könnte nicht größer sein.

@moonglum They don’t need AI for that. Not supporting old devices with OS updates has worked like a charm for years. If your old device cannot talk SSL with any mail servers any more, you will probably buy a new Mac at some point.
Ich erwarte solche Einordnungen eigentlich auch vom ÖRR.
