ELON MUSK: Hej, mogę przyjść na imprezę?
JEFFREY EPSTEIN (rozgląda się nerwowo na boki): Kurde, no, zaprosiłbym cię, ale musieliśmy odwołać w ostatniej chwili.
MUSK: O nie, to już trzeci raz będzie.
EPSTEIN: No.
MUSK: Ale następnym razem na pewno?
EPSTEIN: Nie, no wiadomo. Musowo. Mur beton.
MUSK: Git.
(Elon Musk wychodzi.)
EPSTEIN (do ludzi w szafie): Okej, poszedł, otwierajcie tego szampana.

"The phenomenology of agentic coding" neonvagabond.xyz/articles/the-…
An incredibly dense but rewarding read that makes me wish I had taken more undergraduate philosophy courses. It's amazing to me that people still write like this on the internet.
The phenomenology agentic coding - Neon Vagabond
AI coding agents are important because they fundamentally alter what it is like to program. That is what this essay is about: not whether this transformation is good or bad for programmers as a labor bloc, or economically, or socially; not whether it…Neon Vagabond
Just reading the piece now, and it pokes at something I've been heavily fixated on since I went to React Summit this past summer [1]: almost every self-reported productivity aid in software is indistinguishable from "normal" industrial learning rates.
That is, if you take similarly situated engineers, with similar experience, and hand them an opportunity to green-field on *any* new stack, you'd see the same self-reported "win".

If frontend aspires to be a profession — something we do for others, not just ourselves — then we need a culture that can use statistical methods for measuring quality and reject the marketing that dominates the React discourse.Alex Russell
@slightlyoff you mean vibes 😛
seriously strong agree. I example saw the Dora report this year says people feel one way productivity wise for the example with AI but actually how they feel doesn’t follow.
Spoiler but I think we engineers are irrational emotional creatures just like everyone else but sadly we don’t think we are that way. That’s our fatal flaw.
@slightlyoff I regularly celebrate your writing as some of the best on, and not just about, the Web
Yet, its far more allusive than you seem to speak. That doesnt read as an affectation, but it does mean that many smart, educated readers struggle because they dont share the same background knowledge - let alone those who truly need to hear it.
Please dont make it dumber, shorter, or less biting

@_thegeoff Mega-asides would be a good description for what I do when teaching... I'm easily distracted by interesting "asides".
And now I've down the same with this discussion... sorry!

In the early morning hours of Tuesday, Jan 27, we crept into the Enterprise Rental lot on on Sandy Blvd. and 28th and disabled every car, truck, and van parked there. A large message reading "ICE RENTS HERE" was sprayed across the building to make our motive clear to any passerbys. Awls made quick work of the tires and each vehicle also received a complementary paint job.
