One of the comments on the announcement of LibreOffice 26.8 was a simple question: “So, no AI is now a feature?” LibreOffice does not reject artificial intelligence out of hand, but an office suite used by tens of…
Several months ago, I decided that AI contributions were no longer welcome in a FOSS project I am building and maintaining - LibreWeddingPlanner. It’s not that it got a lot of contributions with AI — actually all…
This October 2026 we challenge you to abstain from LLM based tools entirely. Think of this as a fast for your mind! This is not a judgement of others, but a personal challenge to you.
Every zeitgeist comes with new design idioms unique to its challenges. Many of them disappear as fads change, but others bake themselves into deeper parts of…
The one where I’ve seen enough (for real this time).
<p>You just have to ask.</p>
My last post on the Rust compiler’s performance was two months ago and a lot has happened since then.
DHH's opening keynote had shockingly little to say about Rails.
This is a website, which means it sometimes goes offline
consumer-grade hardware can run an LLM that hacks the planet. we can stop it, but we don't have much time.
KDE is on the news because of a controversial proposal to define an official “AI” (LLM) policy (archived link). Other projects have tried their hand at similar policies and stances but, in my opinion, they miss the…
tl;dr; omnibin is a FUSE filesystem that puts every binary nixpkgs ever shipped on your $PATH. Nothing is installed. Nothing needs building. 0 bytes on disk until something actually reads a file. 😈 It’s 2026, why am I…
AI was the last straw that convinced me I need a PKM system.
tokens are going to be as cheap as electricity within the decade
Are you steering towards AI burnout? Afraid of loosing your job to someone with little programming skills, no aspirations to quality, and a huge Claude account? Disappointed about the code quality in your projects, or…
I feel like I got substantial value out of Claude today, and want to document it. I am at the tail end of AI adoption, so I don't expect to say anything particularly useful or novel. However, I am constantly…
Certainly the industry is transforming, however, the people and organizations falling into the trap of no longer reading and writing code only do so at their peril.
It's time to stop drawing user interfaces with punctuation characters. Native UI is a completely solved problem.
On bottlenecks, low standards, and calculators.
GNOME and KDE have started to consider LLM policies, and we should talk about what this is really about. KDE caught everyone's attention first by...
Tell me you don’t understand software without literally using those words!!!
<p>Very good to use for documentation of systems and tasks</p>
In a recent episode of President Curtis , the President struggles with opening a door on two separate occasions. These doors don't work beca...
Exactly a week ago (as a joke), I started writing THC, my “Turbo Haskell compiler,” while on vacation visiting Bartosz Milewski.
[This is a guest post by Amit Sahai. This blog post was initially written in a different file format and converted using AI. — T.] When I was an undergraduate student, I remember talking with…
Cal.com just closed their source code, arguing AI has made open source too dangerous. After 13 years of building Discourse in public, we're staying open. Here's why.
AI usage has been increasing over the past few years due to its biggest selling point: time. It is often marketed as a tool that helps developers reduce the overall time needed to perform a task.
In this essay, Carson Gross argues that Markdown is now an important source artifact for software systems built with LLMs, and that, following the principle of locality, it should live in /src, alongside the code it…
Persistent, private, fast-starting VMs with automatic auth.
Another month, another agent-shell update. If you missed the last post, have a look at the 0.73 update. As usual, this post showcases highlights, but ...
Is email the best way to work when working with multiple agents at the same time? Each email thread is a session. And it supports group conversations. See what I built on Github . With email. you’re not chained to a…
A collaborative network for Autoresearch-style experiments.
<p>(I used both AI and vibecoding tags because the article describes training a logistic regression/SVM on LLM output. I thought there was a statistics tag that would have been appropriate but apparently not!)</p>
Technology needs another revolution. It’s just not the one the industry seems hellbent on delivering.
Why it is irresponsible to continue to frame the use of AI-powered software as “just a tool.”
I wrote software to help me run the optimal running route for Angel Island, covering the island's 19.4 miles of unique road/trail in the shortest possible distance of 23.8 miles.
AI is not magic, but consensus building is. Notes on Wikimedia's next 25 years, after Wikimania 2026.
Software operations has always asked one question: Is it broken? AI agents change that. Here’s the shift toward measuring correctness at the level of the run, and the thinking behind Amazon CloudWatch Omni.
Creating a deterministic hypervisor the easy way.
You built something. Maybe you used Cursor, Claude Code, or just had a long conversation with an LLM that ended up generating most of your codebase. Your app works. It solves a problem. You packaged it as a Flatpak…
