"Hay que usar la IA en nuestros desarrollos"

“Trying to predict anything AI related feels like trying to figure out what I did wrong to upset my [partner] this time.” 😲 Peak truth! 👏 youtu.be/46PcZ47StDA?...

I’ve built a far amount of content heavy interactive web pages and I did so with manual HTML editing. I enjoyed it and did not find the HTML difficult to work with. Yet so many tools work so hard to hide HTML in favor of other formats like Markdown etc. Am I OK? Do I need help?

I also have this fear. If anything about the last 50 years of tech has taught us is that poor quality is never a deterrent to cutting corners or doing harm.

Gravity is a renewable resource and we should use it more often.

As of latest Safari Tech Preview (242) support for the dialog closedby attribute is enabled (not enabled for stable yet). If people could give it a test that would be a great help! developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/W...

Here's a little party trick. Do you know that you can use `Intl` to format numbers with units and currencies? 😅 You're welcome. :) https://www.stefanjudis....

Teaching software engineering has officially FAILED! If you notice most devs of a certain age say AI will help but not replace developers. Meanwhile, younger devs seem to claim AI will eliminate developers. There seems to be a fundamental misunderstanding of software engineering happening here.

Every software team will eventually face a heart-stopping mistake, whether it is a developer accidentally deleting live data during a migration or a junior ops engineer unplugging a production server to use a vacuum cleaner... 😬

I feel I need to put my gen AI on a PIP.

The "Anyone can code" movement (2010s) coincided with a $2.4T technical debt crisis. By democratizing coding without emphasizing engineering fundamentals, we may have traded accessibility for quality. 40% of IT budgets now go to fixing rushed code. kagi.com/assistant/c2...

In light of the NPM supply chain attacks I like to highlight @tiddlywiki.bsky.social as a fantastic full featured wiki with ZERO dependencies!

It would be nice if browser automatically load the WebAssembly modules, bind the native web APIs directly (without any JS glue code), and run the module. We could write the code for web apps in any language and then compile it to a WASM. hacks.mozilla.org/2026/02/maki... #wasm #webdev #javascript

"Sunk costs." Is they just MAGA harder, they'll get there. There's got to be a pony under so much bullshit.

I am so tiered of hearing “seems like a good AI project” for simple things that already have a solution but people could not be arsed to bother.

Real talk - I’m mostly over functions as a concept. When everything is the same thing factoring, maintainability and composability suffer.

I was thinking this same thing just the other day!

Now I know enough about AI to grok what MCP is, it irritates me because fundamentally: Make a cli tool instead! Then a human can use it too. It’s not stateless? That’s what unix sockets are for! Once again we’re reinventing stuff from the 70s and making it worse.

Why is the YouTube app so bad at playing videos?

Tools don’t make great software, thinking does, and every time we outsource understanding to a tool, whether it’s a framework or an AI, we quietly accept worse outcomes later.

AI coding tools like Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and ChatGPT are changing how we write software... but are they actually improving long-term software quality, or just accelerating short-term output? We ran a study of 150 software engineer's to find out... WATCH ➡️ youtu.be/b9EbCb5A408

If the general/popular opinion on the backend is «JavaScript sucks» and we need «less JavaScript» why do so many APIs require forms to be preprocessed through JavaScript to convert the FormData into a JSON payload before calling fetch?

It is up to us to hold our industry to a higher standard, not just relying on AI tools to write the future of software, while we passively sit by. It has always been crucial for engineers to evolve their understanding of the fundamental principles and now is no different.

Can you imagine the fallout if C-Suites had to go through the same mountain of red-tape software developers go through to make a change to their Word Documents?!

Writing todo tests, implementing the test one at a time and seeing them work (fail correctly), then implementing the real thing in production code and seeing the test turn green is such a dopamine rush I cannot understand how anyone doesn’t immediately embrace #TDD. Best drug I’ve found yet!
