This is Apartheid.

It's morally disgusting - and comes at the same time as Israel is committing an ongoing genocide.

To see the Labour Government defend Israel repeatedly will horrify the British public - it cannot go on like this.

Journocide Targeting journalists and killing them with impunity isn't just a war crime, it's a warning of what comes next

NEW: It’s a journocide. Israel admits to targeting & killing three more journalists & making up false evidence.

Journalists in the west have a moral responsibility to speak up. The blowback from this impunity is coming next for us all.

When tech bros announce something as the next best thing it’s just their delusions. Also NFTs and crypto

Announcing the Zero Token architecture. Instead of burning AI tokens, you learn to think for yourself, and complete tasks using your brain.

Tech loves finding ways to avoid talking to another human

I hate the re-soloing of development. We were so close to learning social skills, creating community, encouraging creativity & purpose, & applying empathy. Easier to manage if each of us is so busy with our genieswarms that we don't have time to talk & reflect.

‘In the end, you feel blank’: India’s female workers watching hours of abusive content to train AI Women in rural communities describe trauma of moderating violent and pornographic content for global tech companies

when people talk about AI used in moderation of social media posts, you must remember there is always the human-in-the-loop, often a woman, often in the Global South, always dehumanised and forgotten

LLM subscriptions lock out developers in non-western countries. It’s hard to afford a Claude subscription when the monthly pay is 350 USD. There is no regional pricing. Not every one has access to a credit card. I thank software piracy for starting my tech career

Been reading it. Loved the section on durable vs non-durable code 😍

These people are poison. They will unleash racist thugs on the streets of this country and call it security. They will subjugate us to the US and call it patriotism. They must be stopped. There is no more important task in politics.

I used NCrunch www.ncrunch.net in its early days and I think it becomes essential with agent coding flows.

Teams with good inner feedback loops have always thrived in chaotic and uncertain environments. The early agile teams thrived in unagile environments. At 7d and BBCW we didn’t wait for an Enterprise Agile framework to be handed on a plate to us. We figured it out :)

Generating code was never the goal. The goal was to solve problems. I tried my best to avoid writing code by leveraging existing solutions or reframing the problem.

Writing code was always a last resort and a liability. If I was going to write code, then I was going to do it right.

Code quality feedback loops in AI dev workflows - Nick Tune How I use automated post-merge reflection to capture, review, and apply code quality feedback in AI-assisted development workflows.

New post: Code quality feedback loops in AI dev workflows

Nothing exciting, just some basic ideas I've been applying, but it helps me to understand where AI-assisted development is likely heading.

I remember when you first made this. Showed up on my RSS reader. Well done for 21 years of parenting

Thank you!🙏

Elon Musk is a white supremacist. Case closed.

How am I supposed to treat LLMs as just a tool when it’s linked the disruption that the techno-oligarchs are causing.

Charity said it better than I could. I explored feedback loops in a contrarian talk Pipelines are dead. speakerdeck.com/hibri/pipeli...

Very busy. It’s chaos and a lot of juggling. Mondays are when I relax :). Weekend mornings are swimming and tennis. Then it’s play dates or doing something as a family. Breaking up arguments and dealing with meltdowns when they are out of their routine.

This is why the “I don’t do anything wrong, so I don’t need privacy “ argument doesn’t hold. We need privacy from the government too for when the government becomes the terrorist, which the US government currently is.
