Iceland weeb. Helping teams make software better. Always finding new things to be mediocre at. He/him.

I wonder how long it will take for vibe coders to stop using source control.

@xWayfinder You can't have ethics or philosophy without introspection.

It sort of explains why these hollow husks of humans get to become billionaires. Because you need to do things an ethical, moral individual would not do.

@xWayfinder Not a single quote in that tweet is accurate.

There's always been terrible software. I remember bargain bins filled with games that *might* run.

This is the "no introspection" guy https://t.co/B9B96UNwsv

Just watch that video and tell me this is the guy to understand history.

Billionaire Marc Andreessen says he has "zero" introspection, and that the idea itself is a modern invention.

@xiaonweb Incredible article, nice work!

@xWayfinder Nice one. I'm getting close, but not quite there. Still need to make big purchases on a laptop/desktop, which is apparently a millennial thing.

I don't know why @SlackHQ added a "Summarize channel" feature when you still can't make a table. That's a core missing feature I've dealt with for years.

@xWayfinder To be fair your gut is very dramatic.

When you let go of anger and frustration, you also let go of that motivation.

@xWayfinder Definition, etymology of Observability.

Also where that three pillars bullshit (metrics, logs, traces) comes from.

[Casey Leask @[email protected] @CaseyLeask]

The earliest example of a stack trace I can find is from ALGOL PROGRAMMER'S GUDE (1971).
Logs go back way further, terminology seems to come from logbooks on ships.
Metrics, from to "he metrikē" (to measure).

Please remember that online spaces like Twitter, Reddit or Tumblr are often just the more extreme, emotional or 'terminally online' opinions.

These spaces can FEEL real, but getting away and existing in reality can help you see most people, are just normal, decent people.

My entire twitter feed is 3 tweets. Another wipe. Who keeps saying that twitter is running fine?

This is someone who streams playing videogames for a living, donning a full mocap suit and facial recognition, as a virtual projection, doing a gymnastics side aerial flip to a paid live and streamed audience https://t.co/fU8MKG9uhb Absolutely amazing. @nxdnz it's come a long way

I have long maintained LLMs make the poor performers mediocre, the average slightly above average, but do not change, and maybe hinder, the performance of top performers.

Here’s a result from a university-level physics coding task.
