pre-writing a devastating obituary for your enemy is god-tier hating of a kind you don’t often see anymore. renaissance haterism. beautiful stuff.

ChatGPT Agent mode is proving to be really useful for certain tasks. To the point that I’ve exhausted the Pro allocation. 😬

“I personally was pretty surprised, actually, at how efficient the government was,” Sahil Lavingia told NPR's Juana Summers.

If you missed my epic SAP EWM talk at ABAPConf in Vienna, the replay is available here: youtu.be/9TblU8tz8_4?... Presentation slides should be shared soon. Here is a taste. :)

The Gödel posts on AI over on LinkedIn are killing me. Great minds over there interpret the incompleteness theorem to imply whatever they please - and specifically that computers (“formal systems” 🤣) can’t think or be conscious. Proof positive that humans hallucinate too.

AI/mind spiritualists are all up in my LinkedIn feed. They are so sure that humans are special. I’ve been a materialist for a long time. Human cognition is amazing, even awe-inspiring, but I don’t think it’s special. It has its faults as well as its close parallels in the natural world.

Hey, yall thought I was harsh when I said this over the years. I said what I said. Do you still think it's harsh now? Some of y'all think you are somewhat safe but you are not, because you are surrounded by unreliable people. It's better to have a smaller group that will not cash you in.

Still a banger: harpers.org/archive/1941...

Polestar 2 (2024 RWD LR) roadtrip observations: 1. Really like the experience of enforced short breaks. I estimate about a 10% increase in travel time. 2. Charging has been a non-issue. Electrify America has been solid and the Tesla adapter works fine if needed.

Well, I guess this is one way to deal with existential angst. 🤔

Someone at SAP: "Yep, great example, totally better than old stuff. Very clear."

@getmozi.bsky.social What would be really nice to help me bootstrap my use of the app (used for 2 months - only 3 people in my network): being able to add people who aren’t on the app. No contact info required - just a name and a city. Help me remember to reach out.

Playing with #SAPCAP and #HANA database schema changes.

I discounted @tailscale.com for a while because @liss.bsky.social was the only one I’d ever heard talk about it, and let’s be honest, many (most?) of his computing choices are kind of weird. But I did try it and it has unlocked a whole toolkit of options for remote computing. Really awesome product.

Ok, this is amateur hour. I’d expect nothing more from the owner of this monstrosity, but for the rest of you: 1. Don’t turn the wheels 2. Rock back and forwards to clear a long path 3. Only once you can get up speed do you turn out as you hit the end of the path you cleared

Molly White on the crypto de-banking sham. Really good, detailed overview. www.citationneeded.news/crypto-indus...

Backs up my running theory that bankers are at least as dumb as the rest of us.

These dummies could have had a compliant corporate Dem with literal Uber lobbyists on her staff and instead they did school shootings and measles

Looks like the national Dems interpreted pleas to do something to stop the destruction as, “Fire up the SMS SPAM engine again!”

o3-mini is really good at writing internal documentation - feed it a codebase, get back a detailed explanation of how specific aspects of it work simonwillison.net/2025/Feb/5/o...

Exploring working with Ollama and Open WebUI for local LLMs. Finally getting the new Mac Minis fan to spin up. 😀

Silly OpenAI GPT5 theory that also rings true: GPT5 variants have been ready for months but are just being used to distill into smaller models. Won’t be released until after someone else releases competitive models to guard against competitors using it for distilling.

Crypto bros fretting that Trump getting rich off of a meme coin undermines the credibility of the crypto industry is like meth dealers being worried Walter White made their profession look bad.

All you post-hoc keyboard psychologists who think you can tell from a person's creative works that they're bad actors, shut your lying faces. I know we all have an impulse to make things about ourselves, but, really, this isn't the way. Just stop. There are other ways to grieve (yes, it's grief).

Personally, I’m a big proponent of dumb exercise machines paired with a tablet from a manufacturer you trust. The machine just needs buttons to control things like speed, resistance, and incline, and they are a lot cheaper if you leave off all the software and electronics. 🤷🏻‍♂️

i can think of one word for a dude too scared to say his words with his whole chest

All the kids have migrated to the neighborhood skating rink. I guess winter has truly begun!

this is one of the reasons I do not want to leave my current apartment or this neighborhood. I have USI fiber. I pay $70/mo and have for *years* for wildly fast internet that has gone down ONCE in the 8 years I've had it.

Repeat after me: victims don't have to be perfect or good to be victims. And harassers are harassers.

Back to Mimestream. Mac Mail is just not good enough. Hoping the search freeze issue is fixed!

Slowly seeing a lot of the old Twitter groups I remember at least semi-materializing here. SAP, data and ML enthusiasts, progressives, progressive shit-posters 😬🤣, etc. Nice bonus has been randomly finding a local Twin Cities urbanism community. 🎉

Can’t wait for the DFL Senior Caucus to get behind this basic disability justice proposal. Seniors should prioritize access to safe, cleared walkways.

One obvious thing missing from this piece is that the people bitching about the Twin Cities sure do love our high paying jobs and many other benefits that come from close proximity. WI median income: $75,670 MN median income: $87,556 www.startribune.com/new-resident...

Winter doesn’t have to be a barrier to biking if your city invests in a network of protected, connected and cleared bikeways. 🚲 ❄️

🚨If you are excited about the Twin Cities Boulevard concept, please help stop MnDOT from eliminating it NOW! Send a letter to decision makers and check the thread below for opportunities to get more involved: actionnetwork.org/letters/save...

We have lots and lots of winter bikers here it’s very cool

There are good arguments against these kinds of copyright limitations. OpenAI appears to be making astonishingly clumsy legal, moral, and public policy arguments for some reason. Probably too much STEM and not enough humanities education.

I think this is 100% correct and essays, outlines, etc are the right level of abstraction for pedagogy. The thing that gives me pause is that we were damn sure that cursive penmanship was at least as important at one point. We know a lot more now, but if we’re similarly wrong, we wouldn’t know.

Note to self - learn to subtweet again. Can’t reliably tell when someone is interested in a response and when not on potentially sensitive topics.

I had a feeling that the quality of questions in the SAP community was declining. I analysed 225,000 questions from the last six years with LLM. Let's put it this way: if the headline is a question, the answer is usually no :) What are your feelings/experiences? www.linkedin.com/pulse/has-qu...

AI stuff is great, but the biggest user-facing issue with S/4HANA roll-outs that I see is still getting the basic launchpad design and configuration right, and enabling users to make use of great new features like flexible workflow and situation handling. Majority of SAP customers miss this. 😭

Using a #SAP Build Code project I found the RBSC repository that hosts @sap-rfc/node-rfc-library. Based on that I've created buff.ly/49GScvm [https://buff.ly/49GScvm] to showcase #SAPCAP RFC Support outside Build Code. Mac users can use the GitHub Codespaces with the Devcontainer.

My experience is that a - agenda - diagram (architecture) Current vs target and then a - meeting can do wonderful things. Isn’t it weird that these insights need to be reactivated in 2024?

This just gave me a flashback to an OData development in a customer system we were mitigating where every function call was dynamic. No reason. Just assign function name to a variable and then immediately call the function. You get what you pay for. www.linkedin.com/posts/perfil...

Mozi looks good. iOS only for the moment. Remember Dopplr? Looks exactly the same. Allows you to find overlapping travel with contacts to facilitate meetups. It was such a loss when Dopplr was acquired by Nokia and shut down. If anyone on here I actually know wants to connect, DM me.
