The main reason I still don't use Bluesky is the character limit. 300 characters is just way too few. It should be at 500 minimum.

these people are so full of shit. you can't burn down technical debt with a technical debt canon

It's sad how often I don't post anything here because of the character limit. 300 is just too less. Especially if I want to say something in German.

If the agency you hired is using AI generated images like this, they are doing you a disservice, over-charging you and doing irreparable damage to your brand. The thought of doing that makes us sick at @set.studio, so if you're looking for an agency that actually cares, check us out. set.studio

So is programming. Which is why "vibe coding" is bunk. You have to think through exactly what you want the program to do, and only writing the code will force you to actually think it through properly.

the smartest and most invaluable colleagues I’ve had at any job are the ones with deep historical knowledge of a system/workplace: how it was built, what was tried/what failed, how things ended up The Way They Are. AI undercuts this sort of institutional knowledge-building

when you have 16,000 new lines of code which must be maintained indefinitely, and neither the author (who used AI) nor the reviewers (who used AI) has any knowledge about what that code *actually* does… that’s a perfect recipe for the erosion of institutional knowledge

chat is it good when your AI-obsessed colleague drops a +16,105 -193 pull request with 102 commits all titled “wip: implement next task” and asks that it be immediately approved for next release

I installed iOS 26 today. That was a mistake. Honestly I'd should've stayed on iOS 18 despite all the vulnerabilities. That would've been more comfortable than this mess. It's so much worse than everyone said and so much uglier than Screenshots and videos showed. 😫

To say something positive about iOS 26: - The animations for going into an app and to the Homescreen are better - The annoying swipe up indicator hides itself after a few seconds in an app - The AirPlay menu doesn't look like crap anymore. - I was able to disable the camera swipe on the Lockscreen

That's how it feels when people say they do "Vibe Coding" or let an Agent "help them".

I made this "ad" for one of Cursor's recent features. It finally solves the terrible problem of knowing CSS.

LLMs are the future.

I’m starting to think the people who are excited about “AI agents” have literally never used a computer in their lives

Is there any good keyboard for iOS that doesn't belong to big tech? The iOS keyboard got so bad that I switched to SwiftKey. But well, it's Microsoft and I want to move away from them. I get the irony that I search for something that's not big tech on a device of big tech. No need to point it out.

Maybe I'll try Bluesky again for a bit. But this time definitely not via OpenVibe. This was a mess the last time. Every network with its own app. No automatic cross posting. This isn't possible anyway, as I have about seven times the characters on Mastodon s9 everything here would be truncated.

Inside of me are two dogs: One who wants to work on side projects all weekend, and one who doesn't want to touch my laptop at all

Irgendwie werde ich mit Bluesky nicht warm. Ich hab es jetzt gut zwei Monate probiert und irgendwie macht es nicht Klick. Die meisten Leute, denen ich hier folgen wollen würde, folge ich bereits auf Mastodon. Ich halte Bluesky nicht mehr für sinnlos, aber es gibt mir irgendwie nichts.

Einen großen Teil trägt dazu die App-Landschaft bei. Die offizielle App ist… Naja, sie existiert. Und mit Openvibe und ähnlichem hab ich bei Mastodon und Bluesky zeitgleich eine suboptimale Erfahrung. 😅 Dass man mit nur 300 Zeichen hier nicht wirklich schreiben kann, ist auch nicht hilfreich.

Ich denke, ich werde mich wieder auf Mastodon konzentrieren. Fühlt sich für mich einfach besser an. Aber ich würde mich freuen, wenn Bluesky und Mastodon irgendwann miteinander interagieren könnten.

Just started with Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and holy cow. That's a great (and sad) intro. I really was looking forward to this game and it seems like I will have a great time with this. #Gaming #ClairObscurExpedition33 #Expedition33 #ClairObscur

Ok. I just finished #AttackOnTitan. This time for real. Well… That was a great experience. Super weird, but great. I definitely never watched an Anime that was so weird and so captivating at the same time. It's rare that I'm this satisfied with the end of an Anime.

Warum genau gibt es #Sonos Voice Control nicht auf Deutsch? 🤨Ist jetzt nicht die exotischste Sprache. Generell, nur Englisch und Französisch? Dezent enttäuschend. Also dann doch #HomeAssistant Voice und den kram selbst bauen.

Keinen Scheiß Meter kann man mehr laufen und nirgendwo in Ruhe sitzen, ohne nicht von Rauchern mit deren ekelhaftem Krebs-Gestank belästigt zu werden. Verstehe wirklich nicht, warum wir das als Gesellschaft im öffentlichen Raum akzeptieren.
