How To Prevent A Rewrite?
A talk about large codebases, techdebt, lock-ins and still having fun!
On May 8 at 9:00 I'll be speaking about this at Duck Stage 1 of the DevWorld Conference in RAI Amsterdam. @devworld_conf#devworld2026
Agenda is live now - https://t.co/Z758IdUAai
@GoogleDeepMind This got me thinking: Why not use distributed computing, like with seti@home in the 2000s, when the idle cpu time of members was used for heavy calculations? @GoogleDeepMind
@wesbos Lots of people commenting it’s a good deal. But the point is how sustainable it is. One factor is the amount of paid subscribers hardly using tokens. Like the gym subscription model :)
@addyosmani Great timing. I’ll finally build my own email client that makes mail manageable instead of unread mails piling up that are impossible to group or sort or bulk process.
Boris created Claude Code. His point here is important - when AI handles the code generation, the engineer's value shifts to the decisions above the code:
1. what do we build?
2. why? for whom?
3. and how it all fits together.
The bottleneck was always judgment, taste, and systems thinking. AI just made that more obvious.
To the idiots blabbering blithely about Greenland and “US doesn’t need NATO,” do us all a favor and check what US power projection requires and what losing our presence in Europe, with all the bases and logistical infrastructure to support global deployments, would entail. Next check what it would cost us to man all the resulting gaps in the Atlantic and Arctic defense, and explain where we’re going to build substitute ports and bases if we wish to retain a foothold in the Middle East. I know you people seem to think that the U.S. magically teleports entire brigades thousands of miles away or that aircraft carriers can just float around for years on their own, but this is truly unserious bullshit. If you thought America was spending “too much” on defense because of NATO, just wait until you learn what we would have to spend without NATO to maintain even a fraction of our global influence.
Losing NATO — which is what will happen if we attempt to coerce Denmark (read Article I) — will be the surest and fastest way to global decline. Now, if you are Russia or China, you would surely welcome this. But if you are an American, you wouldn’t.
The administration is either bluffing or they are incomparable idiots the likes of which we have never seen in our history, or we will have to revisit that kompromat idea that I have always resisted.
this is a catastrophe. StackOverflow provided data to LLMs, LLMs replaced StackOverflow, and now no new Q&A hub exists to provide fresh data. it’s a self-undermining causal loop, like mold growing on food, consuming it, and dying once the food is gone.
@DavidKPiano Even though we have a small version of this too, I can’t wait to replace it with something better, instead saying there’s nothing wrong with it.
@ThePrimeagen Similar problems for GPS locations. People talk about Latitude Longitude, which is Y. X. And in many datasets it’s an untyped array. MapLibre solves it a bit by calling it LngLat.
Oh and you can spell Longitude as Lon, Lng or Long. 😱
