Your regular reminder that microservices are typically *not* containers in C4. Much of the confusion comes from (1) terminology (what is a "microservice"?) and (2) team boundaries/Conway's Law/code ownership/repo boundaries. tl;dr please don't do this ⬇️

Some people are assimilating the risks associated with pandemics with the risks associated with AI progress. There is a fundamental difference. Pandemics are natural phenomena. We can take preventive measures before they happen and plan for corrective measures in case they do. AI progress is not a natural phenomenon. *We* propel it forward. We have agency. We can choose to develop it or not. We can strive to develop beneficial forms of it. And we can choose to deploy it only if it is beneficial. Comparing the two is total nonsense.

I love that while the 10x programmer is still a controversial concept to some in the tech world, Steve Jobs went straight for the claim that 50-100x programmers are possible.

Criminals like #Play see the smoke, they know there must be fire, a wrong attitude towards HTTP security headers and generally a lack of security awareness by companies like #Xplain.

This is perhaps the biggest secret to the productivity and viability of our two-person teams at 37signals. All our web designers work directly with the native materials of HTML, CSS, and usually even a fair bit of JavaScript and Ruby. Not in Figma. world.hey.com/dhh/design-for…

Was viele bei der Klimakrise falsch verstehen und was uns die Lage in Frankreich gerade so brutal vor Augen führt: Wenn der Staat uns heute nicht vorschreibt, wie wir heizen dürfen, wird er uns morgen vorschreiben müssen, wann wir den Wasserhahn aufdrehen dürfen und wann nicht.

ChatGPT is the modern version of Flaubert's "Dictionary of Received Ideas" (Dictionnaire des idées reçues), that is, a powerful cliché parroting engine. And, as they say in trading: "what most people know isn't worth knowing."

2. Godfather of AI Quit Google Geoffrey Hinton, who has been publishing about AI since 1972, was known as the 'Godfather of AI'. He helped neural networks succeed when mainstream AI preferred the reasoning approach.

🧵1/n So, $paceX launched its big rocket in a nature reserve. After the failed (it's a failure if you blow up the launch pad and the flight abort system fails) launch as of yet unknown particles rained down in a town 10km away (tpr.org/technology-entrepren…) but it gets worse.

You will only start worrying about the dollar status as a reserve currency when you see long lines outside tbe Brazilian, Russian, Iranian, and Chinese consulates full of young professionals seeking immigration visas.
My barber was just telling me about the collapse of the Dollar… How China, Russia and Brazil are going to remove it as the reserve currency.

There's no way we have enough time to allow developers to pair. As it is, we can barely get through all the pull requests each sprint. #NotMyAgile

Not deploying on Friday is a huge red flag, indicating a seriously broken process—insufficient testing, for example, a lack of continuous integration and waterfall thinking (deploy many times throughout dev), and most importantly, no culture of quality. Fix all that.

Russlands Krieg gegen die Ukraine hat mich gelehrt: In Extremsituationen wird klar auf wen Verlass ist und auf wen nicht. @ConstSeibt formuliert es mit den Worten: «Und wie vor 100 Jahren stellt sich wieder die Frage: Wer bist du, wenn es wirklich zählt?» republik.ch/2023/03/17/ruhm-…
