In his first 150 days, Mayor Mamdani has:
- closed a $12B deficit
- collected $9M in unpaid fines from Bezos
- recovered $5M in stolen wages for gig workers
- raised minimum wage to $30/hr
- drove violent crime to record lows
- marched for trans rights

I don't ever want to hear an excuse from a single Democrat ever again. Turns out the "radical leftist agenda" is just competent representation.

Much of AI "productivity gains" come from managers implicitly trusting an LLM to do a good job, and suspending the onerous micromanagement that humans employees get subjected to.

You can do that without paying Anthropic a single penny. It just requires letting the experts you hired do their jobs.

Hey there, some personal news: I've decided to move on and am therefore looking for a new job starting July.

I loved serving as a program manager with open source projects involving some of the most brilliant software developers out there.

In a future job, I'd like to continue working near the intersection of open source, funding, business, policy and the societal impact of digital technology. But that's a small niche and so I hope that this post might open some doors through my contacts here. Are there OSS foundations or (non-) government orgs looking for staff?

Being a software developer at heart, I have been excited about tech all my life and later found myself involved in various software projects and business ventures big and small. I speak both fluent Nerd and fluent Business and frequently helped translating between the two during my career.

I'm aware that my requirements are a strong filter: Part-time and remote, German timezone. I'm also fairly unenthusiastic about the current generative AI / LLM hype and would prefer to work outside of that bubble.

If you have possible leads, I'd be grateful to hear about it. Thanks in advance and thanks for sharing.

Hier wird die Springer-Hetzkampagne #Heizhammer wissenschaftlich aufgearbeitet. Was noch fehlt, ist die juristische Aufarbeitung. Es gibt einfach noch keine brauchbare juristische Verfolgung erwiesener, gezielter Desinformationskampagnen.

Das IFG darf nicht einfach von jenen abgeschafft werden, die Angst vor Transparenz und öffentlicher Kontrolle durch die Bürger*innen haben.

2025 konnten wir den Angriff auf das Informationsfreiheitsgesetz gemeinsam mit euch stoppen. Das können wir jetzt wieder schaffen!

Unterzeichnet jetzt unsere #WeAct-Petition und fordere die SPD-Fraktion auf, den Angriff aufs IFG nicht mitzutragen!

Code reviewing was never the most interesting thing to do. But it had one important element. That, if done right, it was knowledge exchange between the reviewer and the coder. That can be quite motivating. Helping a fellow coder to become better. Reviewing "AI" written code does NOT come with that potential reward. The machine doesn't learn the way a human does. This turns code review into a menial, fruitless task that leads to frustration instead. That's my observation and opinion.
