In an age of creeping relativism, a universal moral law still exists.
Threatening to end an entire civilization of 90 million people in order to bend a nation’s conduct to your will is grossly morally wrong. It is evil. And we should say this loudly.

Very cool
tldr- AI agents are an awesome tool that can speed up your workflow but they are not intelligence. In fact, they do some really dumb things very often.
Through this reddit thread I found the full text of this research paper. I'm not sure I would classify it as "disturbing" if you already knew agentic AI makes a lot of weird choices.

Tweet Claude Code wiped our production database with a Terraform command. It took down the DataTalksClub course platform and 2.5 years of submissions: homework, projects, and leaderboards. Automated snapshots were gone too. In the newsletter, I wrote the full timeline + what I changed so this doesn't happen again. If you use Terraform (or let agents touch infra), this is a good story for you to read.
Back in my day you needed a senior engineer for this sort of thing
I do want to make sure we're being clear about this:
The Bluesky team maintains the same review, red-teaming, and QA processes that we always have. AI coding tools have been proving useful, but haven't changed the fundamental practices of good engineering. Human review and direction remain key.

I come across this clip every few years and it cracks me up every time. It blows my mind that this was a real moment from when Ballmer was Microsoft CEO
Interesting discussion on testing frameworks

No thanks
Metrics are good for the crossword game this past week - still looking into some UI bugs on smaller screen phones. So cool that people are using it!
4 years ago when I got a new job that used Windows, I typed `ls` all the time on the terminal. Tonight, I just `dir`ed on my Mac 😱
(1/4) I'm soft launching nooki.me to get some early traction and feedback on what to improve. Excited to see how this platform grows!
AI coding sucks
CJ just one-shotted a 15 min rant and it's incredibly refreshing.

Did you know that Node.js 22 has glob built in? No dependencies needed.

Wondering how to inspect your bundle and make your @vite.dev based app smaller? Then take a look at the video I've recorded yesterday, as I'll walk through a few steps in a real-world application 👀
Some Saturday morning philosophy ☕
We live in a world where everything is seen through a complex network of signs and symbols from media, leading to a disconnection from actual reality. Simulacra and Simulation describe our current moment perfectly.

The trick was doing some user-agent sniffing to detect if it's a request from a link preview or if it's a browser. If it's a link preview request the endpoint will return an HTML page with custom meta tags, otherwise it redirects you to the puzzle of the day.
I always wondered how NYTimes created custom link previews when sharing your solved Mini crossword time. Finally figured out a way to do it 🎉
Works with BlueSky, iMessage, Facebook, and LinkedIn that I know of.

Anyone know if there’s a way to debug link previews on BlueSky? Facebook, LinkedIn, etc have a share debugger tool that allows you to rescrape the metadata for a link, curious if BSky has something similar 🤔
TIL about minimumReleaseAge, love it!
Thanks again for the feedback @gloomcloud.bsky.social around clue browsing 🙏
