My thoughts from DHH's keynote:
- He needs a haircut.
- His great great grandfather looks boss.
- He used chisel too many times.

And after voting that out too...
🇪🇺 ChatControl is back with a vengeance
The Conservatives (EPP) are attempting to force a new vote TODAY (March 26) seeking to reverse the European Parliament's NO on indiscriminate scanning of ALL your private messages, emails and photos
This is a direct attack on democracy and blatant disregard for your right to privacy
If you're European contact your representatives now, with this handy form:
fightchatcontrol.eu/?foo=bar…
If not, please share this tweet so more people see it and we can block the vote
It's crazy they keep just bringing back whatever they want until it's passed!
Obviously now we see the European Commission is controlled by powerful evil lobbying groups 👺
Just a month later and...
🇪🇺 ChatControl is back!
Now they're trying to pass an even more far reaching ChatControl law through the back door, in a form even more intrusive than the originally rejected plan, without needing any of the EU countries votes
The new proposal:
- total mandatory surveillance of ALL text chats, emails and social media in the EU
- obligatory registration of your ID/passport to your chat, email or social media account
- minimum age requirement for chat, email and social media apps of 16 (!)
The only way to stop this law is if EU countries veto it

Only software developers that understand this will survive the AI massacre:
You are not paid to write code. You are paid to argue endlessly how to write the code.
We have voluntarily given 24/7 access of our conversations to a listening device so that we can say “Siri add a 30 minute timer for my banana bread” once a month.
RIP the airline industry.
A ticket that cost €2,300 I managed to get the airline to pay me instead.
Here are my prompts 🧵
"I was never obsessed with typing code, but with building useful things for people," says the developer whose entire existence is threatened by AI.
Only a few weeks before dropping comments like "nitpick" and "if you want to be pure"
In 2026 I will be available for hire and I am offering different packages:
Fractional CTO -> Precision loss to be expected here and there. Cheaper plan (depending on precision loss).
BigDecimal CTO -> No loss guaranteed. More expensive.

I am calling for a total and complete shutdown of any new files in the root directory until our representatives can figure out what is going on
