🚀 Introducing the Polar Signals VS Code extension! See CPU time, memory allocations, and more as inline annotations, right next to your code. Works with Polar Signals Cloud and self-hosted Parca. www.polarsignals.com/blog/posts/2...

Hey folks. I’m researching how people are extending their agents. I would appreciate if you could fill out and forward this survey. How to find and use agent extensions forms.gle/ENgpYg9ywqLv...

I do not regret my time at law school and find many things I learned there most helpful when programming and in start-up life. But all that prompt engineering, damn it's like I never dropped out.

Post a pic you took, no context, to bring some zen to the feed.

Does RAM price affect the repair economics of a 12 GB smartphone with the cracked glass body? #firstworldproblems

After finally migrating Kubestack to OpenTofu I must say the biggest issue is my ter<tab> muscle memory...

Long overdue! github.com/kbst/terrafo...

More like Sen. Jon Busted.

How much longer until Trump tries to put his face on the flag?

Checks and balances, but make it a kleptocracy

There has been a really exciting movement in Kubernetes to actually acknowledge datacenter topology, and I don't see enough people talking about it. This one might seem small, but it opens up possibilities for applications needing to care about network topology. kubernetes.io/blog/2025/12...

Go 1.26 is out, and the announcement says: "Over the next few weeks, follow-up blog posts will cover some of the topics in more detail. Check back later." So you can wait a few weeks OR you can read my interactive Go 1.26 tour right away: antonz.org/go-1-26

Enterprises only paid lip service to the software development and operations improvements of the last decade. Their code is hardly better than write-only code already today. The problem was never lack of tools. It's unwillingness to change more than job titles. www.heavybit.com/library/arti...

Expecting prompt engineering to replace coding is futile. Natural language has fuzzy syntax. Many different ways to say equally many different things. Context helps but given the constant misunderstandings everyone has to deal with every day it's clearly not a guaranteed fix.

Misappropriating band names is probably my favorite social media trend.

This article is a very useful reframing of the tired “Europe falling behind in tech” whinge. Europe has actually build the foundations for socially useful tech, for decades. What it has not done is attempt to create Empires by extracting cash from that work. ploum.net/2026-01-22-w...

Yak vibing - getting side tracked by AI hallucinations.

Claude is pretty good at identifying all possible test cases to test for. But it more often than not picks expected values in a way that just isn't strict enough to be useful. And every now and then a test is just complete bogus.

Ran 73 of 73 Specs in 14.244 seconds FAIL! -- 23 Passed | 50 Failed | 0 Pending | 0 Skipped Could be worse!

Copilot is refusing to do a git rebase to resolve a merge conflict and going full junior engineer on me. I thought at the very least, the AI wouldn't talk back...

BIG FIGHT AT POLAND’S WROCLAW ZOO!!!

The thought has come across my mind too. What do you think?

Sick day, watching Homeland. I'd never have thought seeing the S-Bahn seats would make me miss Berlin.

Time to rewrite Kubernetes in Python. JK, probably.
