Is there anyone I know in the USA (or have their network routing via the USA) - if so, please DM, I have a favour to ask.
@0xabad1dea This is not the first story I have heard of this being a problem in NL. IIRC @tanepiper was challenged on meds and existing diagnosis.
@Diami03 @zackwhittaker And the only female board member has been a CFO at a number of places, and was originally with one of the Big 4. I might have seen this before.
@brianhonan Could be worse...it could be a SOC2 report for a different org, with answers that don't match the controls.
@krypt3ia @Javvad Or Run Fatboy Run
@mcfly Even if Israel are not participating? Or just not a fan of Eurovision in general?

@Gina Looks like a farmer who is trying to sell the land for residential development. I would expect someone buying the plot to put 1 or more "normal" size houses there.

There's better value to be had around Bijlmer.

Having dealt with automation at scale, and being a "cog in a corporate process", handling outliers, this resonates; "reverse centaur" roles are already very visible in customer service, they are going to become more prevalent in tech.

I strongly believe there are entire companies right now under heavy AI psychosis and its impossible to have rational conversations about it with them. I can't name any specific people because they include personal friends I deeply respect, but I worry about how this plays out.

I lived through the great MTBF vs MTTR (mean-time-between-failure vs. mean-time-to-recovery) reckoning of infrastructure during the transition to cloud and cloud automation. All those arguments are rearing their ugly heads again but now its... the whole software development industry (maybe the whole world, really).

It's frightening, because the psychosis folks operate under an almost absolute "MTTR is all you need" mentality: "its fine to ship bugs because the agents will fix them so quickly and at a scale humans can't do!" We learned in infrastructure that MTTR is great but you can't yeet resilient systems entirely.

The main issue is I don't even know how to bring this up to people I know personally, because bringing this topic up leads to immediately dismissals like "no no, it has full test coverage" or "bug reports are going down" or something, which just don't paint the whole picture.

We already learned this lesson once in infrastructure: you can automate yourself into a very resilient catastrophe machine. Systems can appear healthy by local metrics while globally becoming incomprehensible. Bug reports can go down while latent risk explodes. Test coverage can rise while semantic understanding falls. Changes happens so fast that nobody notices the underlying architecture decaying.

I worry.

🗣️ Op 9 en 10 juni organiseren wij een heuze GOV-track op FOST (voorheen API Days) Amsterdam:

Het is een programma geworden met veel interessante sprekers die we hebben verzameld uit alle hoeken en gaten van Europa (en soms zelfs verder). Ze hebben allemaal een eigen kijk op hun specialisme en delen van daaruit hun verhaal.

Thema's:
API's
Open Source (community management)
Security
SBOMS
JSON Schema
publiccode.yml
