So "Vibe Code Cleanup Specialist" is now a job title? Not sure I should be excited or horrified. And the potential employers are ... the equivalent of software development superfund sites?

Exposure to "AI Assistance" lowers doctors' ability to diagnose cancer just after a few weeks. "AI"s main effect on people is skill decay. https://www.thelancet.com/journals/langas/article/PIIS2468-1253(25)00133-5/abstract

Biggest commitment to a 3 second joke I've ever seen

Es war klar, das das nach Trumps Ankündigung, die meisten Zölle wieder auszusetzen, passieren würde. Wer von der Ankündigung vorab wusste, hätte ein Vermögen verdienen können. Aber das wäre Insider-Trading und ist natürlich undenkbar.

Next time someone asks me "why don't we just have the AI write the software" I will ask them "why don't we just have the AI do the management?" or "why don't we have the AI do product management?" or "why can't the AI be the CEO?"

"Prompt enginering"? "Emotional prompting"? ... doesn’t always work as intended either: https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=5165270

My campaign on Instagram and Facebook for a migration to the Fediverse. Funnily enough, it brought a lot of new friends from the Fediverse itself.

And since it's the weekend now for something completely different... time for #music ... I have to admit it seems that that my music taste might be increasingly influenced by my daughters, but: #ladygaga's new album is #epic https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mayhem_(Lady_Gaga_album)

The main question about the former self-declared "leaders of the free world" that remains unclear so far is: a) do we see simply a fascist regime at work here or b) a puppet regime orchestrated to incite chaos by "Mordor" or c) both? leaning towards c) for now.

What's to stop Musk, who's already tried meddling with German elections, from seizing Zelenskyy's, or any other European leader's X account, and posting something with dire geopolitical consequences? We're way past the point where it's wise for European leaders and institutions to rely on a […]

Unterwegs im Wienerwald.... obwohl's ein paar Tropfen geregnet hat, ist im wesentlichen alles *staubtrocken*. #dersommerkannkommen ?!? ... mal sehrn, macht mir ein wenig Sorgen, zugegeben.

Today marks the 20th anniversary of me arriving in Germany with my parents. If they hadn't abandoned their jobs, friends and family and taken me out of Russia, I might very well have perished by now.

Austrian newspapers 1 day ahead of quite decisive #election in #germany, after all our most important trading partner/neighbour. ... not a *single* headline about it on the cover pages. interesting...
