IndyPy's November meetup (www.meetup.com/indypy/event...) is about to start: Data Meets Intelligence ! Here are my slides: www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/7fp5y...

Absolutely obsessed with framing your employees sleeping on the floor as a humble brag “Look how hard my team works” no dude you’re just bad at project management. Competent companies ship products without cosplaying being homeless

I'm super excited to announce I'll be speaking at @codemash.bsky.social on January 13-16, 2026! My talks are "Escaping the Trap of Self-Sabotaging Meetings" and "We Shipped an AI Agent. Users Didn’t Care." (events.codemash.org/2026CodeMash...). I hope to see you there! #CodeMash #CodeMash2026

Honestly “Republicans are shutting down the government to hide the Epstein files” is pretty good messaging.

I'm very excited to be at the dev up 2025 conference in St. Louis in less than a month (August 6-8)! I'll be giving two talks about AI: "What Are AI Agents, Anyway?" and "When is a Regular Expression Better Than Artificial Intelligence?". Get your ticket here: www.eventbrite.com/e/dev-up-202...

This lawsuit is brutal. One of the exhibits is the letter Universal sent to Midjourney, including a quote from a 2022 Forbes interview that I bet midjourney regrets

I'm super excited to announce that my new APIsec University course "Building‍ Security into AI" is now live! www.apisecuniversity.com/courses/buil... You check out a brief overview here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=1wZI...

In case you missed it, @stirtrek.com is an amazing conference and they recorded it! You can watch E. Nigma talk about Uncertainty: www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IMV...

There are just two short days until APISecU's APISEC|CON (conf.apisecuniversity.com). I'll be introducing my new course on AI Security. I hope to see you there!

I'm very excited to speak about "Can We Learn to Manage Uncertainty? Probably!" @stirtrek.com 2025! I'll be in the Captain Marvel room at 2:00pm. The slides are available here: www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/90vfx... I hope to see you there!

Vibe coding feels like peak Agile: working software, fast feedback, no ceremony. Just a dev and their AI, iterating in real time. But beneath the speed, the structure breaks. Why vibe coding isn’t Agile, but just frAgile: sep.com/blog/vibe-co...

Vibe coding is fast - super fast - but it breaks down super fast, too. I wrote about why AI-generated code becomes unworkable over time, and how to keep things stable, extensible, and fast (I call it Signal Coding!). Why Vibe Coding Fails - and How Signal Coding Fixes It: sep.com/blog/vibe-co...

Everyone in my field could benefit from reading this, but especially this excerpt: "In fact when people give accounts of sexist and racist harassment they are often dismissed as having a wrong or faulty perception, as not receiving the intentions or actions of others fairly or properly."

IMPORTANT The US CDC has announced that, going forward, reported SARS-CoV-2 wastewater levels will be normalized to an endemic baseline "Zero" on this baseline will be levels in the previous year @evanblake17.bsky.social @benjaminmateus.bsky.social

Conference speaker friends! I am looking for Illinois-based software conferences to speak at. If you have any you would recommend, I'd love to hear about them. Thank you in advance!

I'm excited to learn more about data structures (that's a sentence I never thought I'd type!) with @jordanthayer.com at @codemash.bsky.social 2025 #codemash2025 #dothemash

NEW: I've republished the Kansas Reflector column still being blocked on all Meta properties. It's a piece critical of Facebook's ad policy on climate change content that triggered a site-wide ban yesterday. Read/share widely: www.thehandbasket.co/p/kansas-ref...

#Webcomics Hey kids! Here's a fun game! They just dropped a list of All the artists that Midjourney admits to having scraped to train its A.I. engine. Are YOU on it? (We are) Do you have a good lawyer? (We do) (storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...)
