"the same managerial types who bitch about the entitlement and unrealistic expectations of young people are the same ones that also eviscerated the bottom rung of the career ladder β€” typically by offshoring many of these roles, or consolidating them into the responsibilities of their increasingly burned-out senior workers β€” or see AI as a way to eliminate what they see as an optional cost center, and not the future of their workforce."

Jesus there are so many problems with this article.

"Java was ... created to have as few implementation dependencies as possible."

Bro, what?

Also they lost me with that graphic at the top that claims front-end makes up only 20% of the effort of writing an app.

jemalloc is no longer being worked on (also disappointed to know there is a mountain of technical debt to tackle if picked back up again): jasone.github.io/2025/06/12/je

shot, chaser

The "Written using Claude" section of the readme at https://github.com/cloudflare/workers-oauth-provider/CVE-2025-4143 description with the highlighted text "Readers who are familiar with OAuth may recognize that failing to check redirect URIs against the allowed list is a well-known, basic mistake, covered extensively in the RFC and elsewhere. The author of this library would like everyone to know that he was, in fact, well-aware of this requirement, thought about it a lot while designing the library, and then, somehow, forgot to actually make sure the check was in the code. That is, it's not that he didn't know what he was doing, it's that he knew what he was doing but flubbed it."

The Cursor AI Editor is so good, it generates code that is literally useless. In the marketing example at the top of their homepage.

If these tools just automate bad decisions and useless code, they're a net-negative for productivity.

I'm sick and tired of seeing articles like

'Introverted? Here's how to be more social'

FUCK OFF!!!

How about an article with the headline

'Extroverted? Here's how to shut the fuck up'

@esparta haha no! I had to film that butterfly for hours to get that shot ☺️ I set up my camera in the side yard and left it running for a long time.
