Free speech may offend you, but it gives you the chance to object, discuss, dislike and express your discomfort. The alternative doesn't.

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.

I've been a software engineer for more than 15 years now and the biggest lesson I learned is that the things that matter to me (tech, design, architecture) are almost never the things that make a product succeed. Even for developers. Do you even care what Cursor is built with?

“let’s get on a quick call” why. why must we get on a call to discuss something that can be resolved on text with 4 extra brain cells and 2 more sentences of effort. absolutely torturous habit of people requesting calls for everything. 😤🚩

man reading the replies to adam and the whole levels thing, people are so bad at using their brain there is no world where you push a button and get rich if there is a $1M opportunity, 1M people are gonna be after it it does not matter how tools change and what things are made easier expectations go up, competition still exists, and you still have to be extremely creative, intelligent and intense to be the winner it has become 100x easier to build software since 20 years ago and you aren't magically more successful - LLMs aren't going to save you if you spent half the time getting good instead of finding excuses not to, you might get somewhere

Being hungry makes you less rational. Right now I'm thinking about opening a YouTube channel showing how to build stuff on AWS

This is excellent. And for those asking if it's better than paying 5/month on Hetzner well... It's free so why do you care?

the reason software engineers can't go on strike is productivity might go up if a bunch of them stop working

a really impactful moment for me was understanding that flight was invented before the science of how flight works most things are invented in this order - just go and tinker! you don't need to develop a unified theory first

A lot of people are worried about the costs of using AWS' container services. So here's what we did: 1. Set good low cost options as defaults 2. Document in plain English what the costs would be There's a new cost section in many of our docs. Starting with the VPC...

With all the WPEngine drama going on, what's people using WooCommerce doing with their stores? Moving to Shopify? Or just trying to migrate their Woo to another Woo somewhere else?
