@TheChiefNerd Human intelligence my ass

🚨 Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei: “We are so close to these models reaching the level of human intelligence, and yet there doesn't seem to be a wider recognition in society of what's about to happen … There hasn't been a public awareness of the risks.”

This is my attempt to stay sane during high-churn, AI-assisted development. You can't lovingly review every diff when the codebase is growing faster than your coffee gets cold. Unit tests and classic E2E still matter – they're brilliant once you know what you want to keep stable. But in the everything changes daily phase, I'm experimenting with something else: scenarios + a judge that demands evidence. I'm exploring scenario-driven agentic E2E: the spec is deterministic, the execution is flexible. And I'm using rubric-based, evidence-only judging with a confidence-scored verdict. The intermediate results are amazing and very promising! More soon, folks.

The weird part is: the state can be super "efficient" when it comes to fines. But when it comes to delivering what it promises, suddenly everything is manual. School place delayed? Good luck. You can spend months pushing and still end up with no compensation, just the thing you should’ve had in the first place.

A rewrite is tempting because it feels clean. In practice it often stalls a team. In 2016 I needed to move a production app from Backbone + CoffeeScript to React + GraphQL, and we had to keep shipping. The only way that worked was a gradual migration with a clear boundary. We created a Backbone base class, ReactView, that still looked like a LayoutView but rendered React components. Backbone updated Apollo local state, and React re-rendered the right part of the UI. That gave us a stable interface between old and new. For a while we lived with two build pipelines: Grunt for CoffeeScript, Webpack for React. Same repo, same page. Not elegant, but it kept the feedback loop alive. Feature by feature, over months, we moved across. Users never noticed – which is exactly what you want.

@alexoakdev I’ve recently noticed that too. I have a feeling that compacting doesn’t work properly. I’ve just started opening a new chat for each task and seems like it reduces the pace.

Does anybody else feel like Claude Code keeps nerfing their usage limits??? I have the $100/month plan and 30 minutes of coding now uses up 60% of my session limit... A few months ago this would have only used like 5% I think. Anybody else feeling the same way?

@andi_losing @HeyItzaMi You can‘t just bring it. First — you have to get a Termin! There are no Termins available at the moment though

@HeyItzaMi why also send it as a PDF if I can bring it in person on paper so they can scan it again

POV: the amount of documents you need in Germany to run an unprofitable business

@itsolelehmann After 10 years in Berlin we moved to Konstanz. It‘s right on the border with Switzerland (walking distance). Less than one hour to Zurich. 1:20-1:30 driving distance to Alps. About 4 hours to lake Como. Bodensee itself is really beautiful. Many young folks due to big University

I'm researching our next city to live in Europe, here are my criteria: - (mostly) walkable (also with a baby stroller..) - good level of english - over 500k people (I lived in berlin -> then small 40k village in cyprus-> I need the city again, at least nearby) - nature in and around the city - major airport - good startup ecosystem - good english level - (mostly) sunny climate - tax system that doesn't destroy you Right now this is the list I have with these criteria - Madrid 🇪🇸 - Lisbon 🇵🇹 - Barcelona 🇪🇸 I lived in Cyprus the last year and people speak amazing english here, so that's def a big plus for a country that has that Cyprus is nice in many ways, but just way too small and village-like for me If I don't care that much about the weather (still not sure about this), there are these options: - Amsterdam🇳🇱 - Berlin 🇩🇪(love hate relationship, lived there 11 years, want to be sure before I come back) - Munich 🇩🇪 (I like that its so close to mountains, Italy etc) Switzerland is also nice but I think it's a bit too polished and structured for my liking. Might come there later in life ;). I still have a small small voice in my head that tells me to check out the US more. My main problem is that it's SO FAR away from my family. What we'll do next year is to say 2 months in a couple of cities/places and then decide Might also come 2 months to the US just to get a better picture, it's possible that I won't like it as a place to live. I also have accepted the fact, that there is NO perfect place to begin with. There's always up and downsides.

I've just entered this Paradise Lost contest and you can too, here: toneden.io/paradise-lost/…

@kroshka_ke Не переплачивать в 2-3 раза за билеты на самолет в ЛЮБОЕ направление во время школьных каникул

1. Не сортировать мусор 2. Смывать в туалете ночью 3. Ночевать на даче Дальше давайте думать, подсказывайте

@OfficialPL @NMCLtd Awesome record! Took some time to feel and understand it.

24 years since 'Believe In Nothing' Paradise Lost's eighth studio album was released! Revisit it here and let us know which track is your favourite spoti.fi/41hA4EB

Wtf Germany?!

@MichaelAArouet @econovisuals An open-air museum with real poor air quality

Europe on its way to become open-air museum in one chart. But hey, let’s see what we can regulate next. Ht @econovisuals

@levelsio Fortunately, Bali is a big island (compared, for example, to Phuket). A few kilometres away from Canggu towards Tanah Lot, you may find the same vibe that Canggu had in 2011. Sidemen is what Ubud was 50 years ago, and so on.

"Butler's Tourism Area Life Cycle (TALC) is a widely used model to study the evolution of a particular tourism destination The model suggests that a tourism area evolves through six predictable different stages, namely, exploration, involvement, development, consolidation, stagnation and decline or rejuvenation" I think Canggu is at stagnation and just before decline Hopeful is if they manage it well (which they won't) there is potential for rejuvenation instead of decline More likely is Canggu becomes a cruise ship type mass tourism destination for turbonormies A lot of you on here predicted this 10 years ago and you were right I think it'd have gone differently if Canggu was managed better, ironically a bit more actually functioning regulation may have helped it not go from so great to so shit in the span of just 5 years

@nico_jeannen I've been using it for about 5 years now. Not the best for typing, but it works really well for watching, reading, and learning stuff. Cardio and education – a solid combo.

Has anyone tried one of those small treadmill with a standing desk? Have you noticed a difference in energy / focus / health?

@damnwhataname Мы существуем! 16 лет. Полет нормальный!

Сила твиттера, помоги мне. Мужчины, которые НЕ изменяли в долгих отношениях, отзовитесь, пожалуйста, под этим постом. Я верю, что вы существуете

@DRannaz @FilonenkoOles Есть видео с другого ракурса. Там видно, что этот чувак в синей куртке лупит другого чувака, который пытается скрутить исламиста. Коп мог подумать, что синяя куртка тоже из нападающих.

Видео не для слабонервных: мигрант-неадекват с ножом напал на протестующих против нелегальной миграции в Германии В немецком Мангейме нападавший успел серьёзно поранить нескольких человек перед тем, как его убили полицейские.

Slayer‘s Divine Intervention is available on German’s Spotify. Finally! Blast from 1994 💥🤘

@ValeriiZhyla К сожалению, на деле вопрос гражданства решается дольше и сложнее. В Берлине уже томится больше 40 тысяч заявок на натурализацию (и наше, среди прочих). Фактически, время ожидания выполнения поданной заявки может растянуться на те самые пару лет.

Напоминаю что если ты выучишь английский немецкий и питон, уедешь работать в Германию То у тебя будет меньшая* покупательская способность чем у мидла из Барнаула Алтайского Края * с другим порядком опасности сесть на бутылку, сесть по доносу или за грамм травы ** с возможностью нормально инвестировать, нормально судиться и иметь доступ к дешёвому капиталу *** с возможностью через пару лет стать гражданином нормальной страны, которая не стремиться обнулить своих граждан раз в пару поколений, и вроде неплохо поохладевшая к обнулению соседей **** через пару лет работы подтянется язык и репутация, и такой разраб прилично обгонит своих бывших коллег Европа и Северная Америка конечно не сахар, но я абсолютно не могу представить себе жизнь где-то иначе. Сафари на джипе с охраной? Отпуск в заповеднике или элитном отеле? Может быть, но это реально максимум. Относительно неплохо краткосрочно можно скататься посмотреть только Эмираты, Южную Корею, Сингапур и Японию. Что-то, но точно не направления для релокации для меня.
