In the 1960s, this absurdly large camera was used to make masks for integrated circuits. The layers of the integrated circuit were drawn at large scale and then optically shrunk to make the glass masks that were used in manufacturing.

Software development methodologies compared.

#software #development #agile #waterfall #ai #developer

Three different software dev philosophies. 

Waterfall: wheel first, wheels and body next, full car at end. 

Agile: skateboard first, motorcycle next, almost finished car last. 

AI: car with only back window and front tire first, cat motorcycle next, duck last.

I was a volunteer at Copenhagen Comics 2025 today. I really, really enjoyed it, and now at 21.00 I want to go sleep due to exhaustion! :D I am back at "work" again tomorrow.
But do you know what gave me the highest high today? All the cosplayers and furries or therians. They were so happy to be able to be their authentic selves. They were excited to see each other, meet up, and so on. Their utter joy was so contagious, and I was so happy for them. Then there were all the artists who had made books, zines. stickers, or art for your walls. You could feel their energy and their passion. There were also gamers gaming all day long at Bastard Café's stand.

No AI can give out the most excellent vibrations coming from this crowd of comics fans. This is the Real Thing. <3

If you are near Valby, Denmark tomorrow from 10-16, come check it out.

Dejlig deltagelse i Odsherred Folkemøde i dag, 5. juni - Grundlovsdag - med Under Regnbuen. Jeg deltog som forælder til transkønnet og på vegne af FSTB. Der var mange, som kom hen for at snakke.

Vejret holdt tørt, og det var en skøn dag 😎

The paperclip-shaped Microsoft assistant known as Clippy, asking a question on a mock-up of a computer desktop interface. The speech bubble says: "It looks like you outsourced your thinking to probability distribution. Would you like some help with that?" The options to click are "Yes", "No" and "Roll dice".

@nixCraft Hiring manager here: Behavioural interview is what HR tend to use instead of testing. Many companies have stopped testing for personal preferences. Behavioural interview is largely the same, though, albeit without the test as basis 😄
