Escorting the nine-year-old to a friend’s birthday pool party, I told him I wasn’t going to swim in part because I’m dressed for work. He told me I could just jump in like Mamdani did. This is what socialism does to our children.

Bundestagsabgeordneter Spahn gibt trotz einer Vielzahl an Skandalen sein Mandat nicht auf.

Chatto is almost entirely built with agentic engineering workflows. I've written a blog post about what this means in practice.

Leihmutterschaft auch wieder so ein Ausdruck, der die realen materiellen sozio-ökonomischen Mechanismen & v.a. Ungleichheiten der geschäftlichen Transaktion, die das v.a. ist, ganz gut kaschiert.

France grants Ukraine licenses to produce ASTER air defense and SCALP cruise missiles Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has convinced French President Emmanuel Macron to grant Ukraine licenses to produce ASTER surface-to-air missiles and SCALP cruise missiles, which are a...

how many Rs in "strawberry"

Chatto is important. On many levels. Glad that Hendrik took it on.

I would hope that people end up reading Chatto as proof that there is more nuance to agentic engineering beyond "it's vibe coded!!1" vs. "it's pure", with good software absolutely being possible when you pair human experience with a robot that never tires.

Transparency update: After repeated rounds of airstrikes on Iran over the last week, there's no sign of the Pentagon returning to news briefings that were occasionally held earlier in the war. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth last briefed the public in a press conference at the Pentagon on May 5.

"Wir hatten ja schon heiße Sommer, aber so wie es am Wochenende war,mit dieser Intensität so viel Schwere und so viele tote Menschen im Rahmen eines hitzebedingten Wochenende hat noch niemand von denen erlebt. (...) Keiner der Notfallmediziner hat das in diesem Ausmaß jemals erlebt."

Join me and @hmans.dev for This Week in Svelte...we're gonna talk about @chatto.run (a project I've been eyeing...written in Svelte obviously) youtube.com/live/EjpIXG9...

We're doing a Chatto Community Q&A thing tonight at 21:00 CEST. Come join us in the Chatto HQ community at chat.chatto.run - sorry, no AT Proto login *yet* :)

Join our social media manager @hmans.dev tonight as he pretends to be our sole developer. That guy... smh

Whew! Hendrik's impromptu Q&A session was lots of fun. Looking forward to next time! And he really HAS that soothing podcast voice. Come join us next time to witness it yourselves!

European architects have been waiting for releases that treat resilience, GDPR and sovereignty as first class design constraints. When performance and compliance align, you get infrastructure that actually scales trust.

For me as an European Enterprise Architect, THIS is the software release I was looking forward to this year. Come join us on Chatto's very own server! People are friendly, and it's really faaaaaaaast. #resilience #gdpr #sovereignity #compliance

Reform des #IFG als Korruptions-, Demokratie- & Sicherheitsrisiko: Wie das Gesetz zig politische Skandale ans Licht gebracht hat, warum vorgebrachte Argumente für Reform nicht überzeugen & wie wir durch Reform unser Recht auf Transparenz verlören, erläutert @arnesemsrott.bsky.social in gut 5min.

"Eine Superreichensteuer sieht das Paket nirgends vor. Als superreich gelten üblicherweise Menschen mit einem Finanzvermögen von mehr als 100 Millionen Dollar, davon leben rund 5000 in Deutschland, und für deren Vermögen plant diese Koalition gar nichts." Gar nichts.

LLM's are helpful because they're trained on years of high quality educational material and forums where people helped each other. People aren't visiting forums or paying for educational content anymore because of LLM's. The well isn't going to magically fill itself in perpetuity.

Wenn ihr euch genug über die Nebelkerzr Attestpflicht aufgeregt habt, könnt ihr auch mal darüber nachdenken: - Kettenbefristung bis zu 6x 4 Jahre - Abschaffung Informationsfreiheit - Verbot der Vergesellschaftung von Wohnungen - Förderungen für Autos und KI 😀

On Still Burning I told Keith Adams this shift erases two of my books. Crafting code so it communicates to other humans was a real craft. But it's like horseshoeing now: no leverage in being the best horseshoer, even the world's best.

Fable: "download Unity and set up its MCP." Done. "Now I want you to build a game that is a unique twist on a FPS. You want the player to say "wow" & "so clever" and to enjoy the core gameplay loop" WebGL: swapshot-void.netlify.app * It had no assets so the graphics are procedurally generated

Enterprise und Business Architects, aufgepasst, wichtige Erkenntnis zur Umgebungsarchitektur: Fortgesetzt staatlicher Unwillen, auf seiner Ebene zu handeln, trotz gesellschaftlicher Impulse, gesetzlichen Rahmens und verfassungsgerichtlicher Urteile. Passt Euer BCM und das COOP-Zeugs entsprechend an.

"Human in the loop" — until the loop becomes a noose. Jessica Kerr on Still Burning: if you try to understand everything the agent did, you're stuck. Don't verify the work by hand. Make the agent build the thing that verifies itself.

⚠️ Leider müssen wir euch mitteilen, dass unser Museum am kommenden Samstag, 27. Juni, nicht öffnet. Aufgrund der extremen Temperaturen können wir eine Öffnung gegenüber unseren Gästen und auch unseren Exponaten nicht verantworten. Wir bedauern das sehr und hoffen, dass ihr dafür Verständnis habt.

Ich weiß gar nicht, ob alle begreifen, was da gerade hitzetechnisch in Europa passiert. Ich bin nicht mal sicher, ob ich das komplett begreife.

In completely unrelated news: Why yes, there *is* dependency management hell for Enterprise Architects.

This is the most exciting product launch this year for me as an Enterprise Architect, on so many levels. Or as we say in Germany: Tja. Which, otoh, we'd also say if that Non-European vendors thing we all came to love so much bit us in our collective asses. #coop #bcm #resilience #sovereignity

Programming isn't going away, it's splitting in two. Jessica Kerr on Still Burning: "If you want to build a bookshelf, that's a craft. But there's also IKEA." The code-crafting got commoditized. Knowing what to build didn't.

Our infrastructure provider is currently experiencing some issues, and some Chatto Cloud-hosted instances appear to be affected. (We're all grown up now! Outages and everything!)

Talked a little about Chatto's architecture in this thread. Another instance where it shines is E2E testing. Each e2e/integration test gets its own isolated Chatto server. Chatto starts up in under ~100ms, an easy price to pay for full isolation.

Zum Thema FCAS-Aus ist die Meinung des früheren Berliner Studiochefs und heutigen Frankreichkorrespondenten des @deutschlandfunk.de.web.brid.gy eine interessante andere Sichtweise:

this is so cool

Wir verlieren die Fähigkeit, uns respektvoll miteinander auseinanderzusetzen, und auch mal bei unterschiedlichen Ansichten gut zueinander zu bleiben. Die Welt ist nicht schwarz-weiß, und ich möchte daran glauben, dass der Humanismus am Ende bleibt.

Report the repository for malware if you want (it's probably justified!), but harassing maintainers with issues like this is *never* okay.

KI-Modelle haben die Schwäche, dass sie selbst bei großer Unsicherheit eindeutige Antworten ausgeben wollen. Menschen haben die gleiche Schwäche.

I didn't have the Pontifex quoting Lord of the Rings on my 2026 bingo card

now that Google pivots aways from being a search engine (to becoming a proprietary interpreter of the web) there will be new opportunities for real _search_ - you know, like in the old days, where you find the actual so-called “web page”

@felicea.bsky.social Vielleicht für Dich oder jemanden aus Deinem Netzwerk interessant: www.kickstarter.com/projects/zer... Die Kampagne ging gerade live.

Immernoch nicht eingegrooved, wie ich Saptodon und Bluesky inhaltlich voneinander trenne. Tja.

I feel like the last generation—DevOps into Continuous Delivery—was defined by Conway's Law, and this generation—AI tokenmaxxing and shoehorning—is defined by Goodhart's Law.

Anyway I made a thing together with @lenareinhard.com and Pepijn Schoen. Here's a void for you to scream into, please enjoy it. screamin.to/thevoid/

Und, wie bereitet Ihr Euch oder Euer Unternehmen auf den Beraterwinter vor?

Pretty happy with the new stuff shipped to Chatto this week, especially the loading and UI responsiveness optimizations. Chatto was already pretty snappy to begin with, but now it's just sublime. Really enjoying being able to polish this thing now. Come join us in the official community!

Probably one of the core issues: Management lags behind and probably does not understand the extend of which a tool ("AI") is a sign of a profound transformation that touches EVERYTHING. "Shrugging code off to production" seems like the result of management tools that were meant for another age.

Letzten Donnerstag(23. April) hat die SAP eine neue API-Policy veröffentlicht, die man als Notbremse verstehen kann: Schranken hoch, keine "fremden" Agenten dran, usw usf. - und heute ist die Policy nicht mehr unter dem damaligen Link abrufbar. Tja.

Man muss die Fragen halt nur richtig stellen.
