Nothing says “dying civilization” like gladiator fights at the capitol for the emperor’s amusement.

Many of you forgot too fast the insane amount of shitty software we had to see and suffer in the pre-AI era.

Oh yes. Radio Hamburg did had a live traffic report from the helicopter every hour.

Stichwort "Primärenergie"

Die Union macht Energiepolitik für 15% der Bevölkerung und und prahlt auch noch ständig damit, wundert sich aber, dass die AfD in Umfragen an ihr vorbeizieht. Drei Viertel der Deutschen wollen weiterhin keine Rechtsextremen, aber 57% eine schnellere Energiewende.

A 1200+ year climate record is at risk. Do you know know anyone in Japan who could help? See below.

Happy Easter.

Danach Angrillen.

What year is it?

Die Energiewende ist nicht zu stoppen. Wer das leugnet, will von ihrem Scheitern profitieren. Erneuerbare Energie wächst schneller als alles andere.

My theory is that LLMs magnify existing organizational issues If your org already does high quality work, has a writing culture, LLMs can provide lots of leverage applied thoughtfully. If your org already couldn’t communicate well… you’re now in the danger zone

Activities vs Impact. Productivity is measured against activities. You can generate a lot of code, in a short amount of time, for a new feature nobody uses. You'd still be highly productive. You can highlight an existing feature in an ad campaign and grow revenue by 30%. Now you've made an impact.

Neulich haben wir hier Mark Uwe Klings falsch zugewiesene Zitate mit Werbe-Claims gespielt. "Edeka, wenns gut werden muss."

Friends. Use HomeAssistant.

Meet me there as well. Come, join us. It's good.

Here are some notes on the current state of Chatto, and the nature of the development instance in particular.

es hätte spätestens bei "grab em by the pussy" vorbei sein müssen aber here we are

this week in Solidus ❥ in-memory order updater PR ready for review!!! (PR 5872) ❥ solidus_auth_devise now supports Devise 5 (released today!) in-memory order updater unlocks the ability to work with speculative changes to order 𝒶𝓃𝒹 hopefully will improve order update performance (testing to come!)

Ok. This might be the first time I will enable audio notifications for an app. FREAKING COOL IDEA! #Chatto

Chatto is great. Make sure you follow @hmans.dev and #chatto

This makes me very sad. Open Source maintenance is already a huge personal burden. Now maintainers will be pilloried for daring to use help of AI to maintain the tools they use? This is the new: "Fix it for me"

They’ve got Twitter up on the big screens in Trump’s Mar-a-Lago makeshift “situation room.” Photos from Trump’s Truth Social account.

I can see the prompts now. "Please stop this DDoS attack and recover our customer's stolen data"

We will either end fossil fuel dependency and the predatory extractivist basis of global production, or they will end us through wars and ecological collapse - all at the same time.

Just had a great new year chat with my close neighbor, then he suddenly needed to run after receiving a pager call. He is a fire fighter. So, take care out there and stop this nonsense! (Personal Fireworks are legal in Germany)

“many angry posts should have been naps or little packets of crackers” is deep wisdom and you don’t need to reproduce to embrace it!

👀 Some words about Chatto, my BIG project. It's a group chat app that - is incredibly easy to self-host - has very modest hardware requirements - scales really well - apache-2.0 license - hosted platform launching in 2026 Looking forward to writing much more about this soon. Let's do this. 🚀

Germany is doing just fine, thank you

If you've just learned of Mattermost's upcoming enshittification of their Free Edition... ...I have something in the works. It's good.

From the forgotten archives of the software engineering craft: the one thing that will instantly turn you into a senior engineer (and that AI so far fails to do) is to say No to things. No, we're not doing that. No, we're not adding more features. No, that was a bad idea, scrap it.
