I saw this yesterday and can't stop thinking about it.

@fogwave @gerardcl Something for you?

Seen elsewhere ...

For software engineers, how long do your daily* stand ups take—in person or on a video?

*For the purpose of this poll, daily means "3 or more days per week".

I'm curious if the joke is true.

god fuck I hate the state of the Web. I just tried something I usually don't do: casually surfing the web for fun. It fucking sucks. Popover after popover, ads, content shifting, articles with 90% useless crap, huge page loads, paywalls,...

Sometimes I feel like a mechanic who hates driving.

Juchu, wir beginnen unsere #digitaleSouveränität endlich aufzubauen - statt nur davon zu reden.

Und wenn Deine Stadt / Gemeinde noch nicht dabei ist?
Dann zeig ihr das Bild und bewege sie zum Mitmachen.

I’m officially done with takes on AI beginning “Ethical concerns aside…”.

No! Stop right there.

Ethical concerns front and center. First thing. Let’s get this out of the way and then see if thre is anything left worth talking about.

Ethics is the formalisation of how we are treating one another as human beings and how we relate to the world around us.

It is *impossible* to put ethics aside.

What you mean is “I don’t want to apologise for my greed and selfishness.”

Say that first.

@maxhorn Euch auch!

@maxhorn Bin dabei, schöne Grüße an den Menschen der auch arbeiten muss...

Conference organisers, if you have talks on AI, please make sure they aren't uncritical hype.

Invite people from non-CS backgrounds: people who did philosophy, linguistics, arts, (cognitive) psychology and maths are all likely to provide very useful insights on AI.

Software devs are so bad at estimation that there is a whole methodology/movement based on refusing to estimate, but devs report the time they have saved by using LLMs, and I’m supposed to take that number seriously?

Did you know...

I also built a fully featured online contrast checker? At https://colorcontrast.app you'll find a contrast checker that:

- Supports WCAG AA, AAA and APCA
- Shows live previews of your colors
- Tells you what sizes colors are good at
- Lets you test with color blindness
- Suggest colors
- Has sharable URLs

The cool thing about writing code is that the computer is doing exactly what you tell it to do.

The cool thing about debugging code is slowly learning what you actually told the computer to do.
