I still write all the business code of my own projects, and all the code in my website, without machine help. People will always matter.

"Scary Movie" (2026) is funnier than "3", which is more or less what I was expecting. The thing is... That's not precisely a high bar. Oh well, I still laughed. Sometimes.
On second watch (this time with my family), turns out I judged "Masters of the Universe" too harshly. It is quite a fun movie, and maybe it can just be accepted as such.
@brandur I don't think it's luddite not to use the models for writing.
The thing with the luddites was not the rejection of new technology, but going around burning the stuff people who didn't reject it.
Well, it finally happened, I read an article saying "if you don't like the large language robots, you're literally Hit..."
Such a shame; the author used to write very insightful posts on the role of software engineers at big companies.
"Masters of the Universe" was almost the kind of movie Hollywood chose to forget how to make. At odds with itself: Fun (at least Galitzine, Elba and Leto seemed to have fun) but also gave me a sense that everyone else involved would rather have been doing anything more "modern".
The robots don't help me produce more code, but the rubber duck effect does help: telling the thing its code is ugly then fixing it removes friction.
Which helps me with personal work: after dealing with clankers all day, writing my own code is cathartic.

Everything in "Backrooms" is carefully crafted to evoke a sense of claustrophobia and unease, from the set design (especially the set design) to the wide, empty shots, even those outdoors. Kane Parsons clearly knows what he's doing, and can't wait to watch what he does next.
Me parece recordar que cierto ex presidente, entonces senador electo, hizo berrinche en el 2014 porque su candidato perdió, y rechazó los resultados.
El efecto herradura nunca falla.
I don't know; I don't think telling a robot that you don't even own (you're renting some time off those who own it) to "generate some code and publish it wherever" is really a democratization.
Open to discussion, of course.
Empowering people to own and change their software was the open source slogan for decades. Now the grand democratization finally arrives, and it's all "yeah, but not like that" 🙄
