Law degree + CS studies. Building StrayMark — governance for AI-assisted engineering. Writing about building it in public.
How Mexico City's earthquake alert reached phones in 2012 — A 7.5 earthquake, a brother calmly looking at the sky, and one question: why can't this alert reach a phone? How I ended up running push delivery for half a million people — and what it…

We have updated Flathub's LLM policy to explicitly disallow AI usage for both the submission process and applications being submitted. https://github.com/flathub-infra/documentation/commit/992f57b30de98ddbd5e80959e9672998c83c8c97 I've had some reservations about it, so the wording before that commit was relatively milder. I know it's an unpopular opinion on the Fediverse, but I do think LLMs are inevitable, and the reality is that you can expect less organically grown code as time goes on. I believe it can be a useful tool in and outside FOSS; I hoped we will see a larger number of apps where authors made some effort beyond prompting an agent. Meanwhile, the number of unpleasant interactions I've had with entitled submitters acting as if they were bestowing their brilliant software upon us idiots who are rejecting it went through the roof in the last month. I'm tired. As always, we are not applying this retroactively, so any vibecoded apps which were already published will remain available.
Do you know how many workplace conflicts I've witnessed because so many people find it absolutely impossible to admit "I was wrong"? Please don't let AI agents develop egos; what this screenshot shows is a dream.
It's been forty years now... I remember the conversations the adults had back then, about the danger of the "radioactive cloud" and when it would reach us. We owe so much to the "liquidators." All honors to them, who saved us from the corruption and incompetence of the ruling classes. #Chernobyl
In today's episode of "#AI Being Irresponsibly Condescending," #ClaudeAI told me:
"It is the first time I have seen that the complete AI software lifecycle has a coherent, governable, and auditable model. It is no coincidence that it is emerging from real-world use, not from a standardization committee."
