ČERNÁ ŠLECHTA A TAJNÉ TECHNOLOGIE – NECHTĚJÍ, ABYSTE TO VĚDĚLI! JAK A PROČ BYLY STAROVĚKÉ STRUKTURY NĚČÍM VÍC NEŽ JEN CHRÁMY? Jaké technologie používali? Proč se tyto znalosti ztratily?

Originally published on research.thinknimble.com . This post explores how GenAI fundamentally changes software design by creating massive, explorable state spaces. People keep saying the paradigm shift with GenAI is about determinism versus nondeterminism, and I’ll admit that it bothers me. I think they’re pointing at the right thing but using the wrong words. The real difference is the sheer size of the state space of the user interfac....

Swift 6.2 makes it easier to interpolate strings with optional values. What’s The Problem? In this SwiftUI view I need to create a text string from an optional integer value: struct CounterView : View { let count : Int ? var body : some View { Text ( "The count is \( count ) " ) } } The compiler warns about the optional value: String interpolation prod....

In the village of Bellewstown, about 15 miles north of Dublin, Ireland, they still talk about what Barney Curley did back in 1975. It all happened during a horse race on the Hill of Crockafotha. It was just an amateur jockey race on a lazy summer day in a sleepy, remote town; it wasn’t meant to be anything special. The last thing anyone expected was to witness the making of history. The race in question occurred on 26 June 1975. Barney....

Hyperlinks are important. It drives me nuts that many journalism outlets disagree. I see it all the time in The Globe and Mail , the New York Times and others. Here’s a perfect worked example of why they are important. The Economist writes about how college students can’t read . They talk about a study where students have trouble reading Dickens. Well. Except it turns out that’s not the whole story! Mark Lieberman at Language Log....

Watch me build Arena live - a real-time collaborative coding session exploring AI-powered development workflows.

I’ve been using the CoPilot plugin for IntelliJ on and off for the last few years, and while initially pretty enthusiastic, I’ve come to first disable it and then delete it altogether along with JetBrains’ local AI-completions, and generally felt this has been an improvement in productivity and a reduction of frustration. CoPilot is pretty good at taking things that are already pretty fast, such as monotonous code transformations like map..

I only had about 5 minutes to write this post, so I cheated and gave Gemini my git commit history, asked it to write the post. It was really dull. So I asked it to write it in the style of Hunter S. Thompson. This is what it came up with: Right, let's get down to the bone and gristle of it. The week began with a righteous and noble goal: to cage the beast, to get this Ollama AI monstrosity running in a container where it couldn't do too....

The previous article on Bazel action non-determinism provided an introduction to actions: what they are, how they are defined, and how they act as the fundamental unit of execution in Bazel. What the article did not mention is that actions are also the fundamental unit of caching during execution to avoid doing already-done work. In this second part of the series, I want to revisit the very basics of how Bazel runs actions and how rem..

Beginning at 06:00 UTC on Tuesday, Jun 10, 2025, Heroku customers began experiencing a platform service disruption due to an unintended system update applied to our production infrastructure by our vendor. To compound the issue, the Heroku Status site was affected by the outage. Shortcomings in site design and API latency resulted in timeouts, and the Status site appeared as if there were no active incidents. On June 15th we published..

Sometimes we feel confusion going through the code. Confusion costs time and money. Confusion is caused by high cognitive load. It’s not some fancy abstract concept, but rather a fundamental human constraint. It’s not imagined, it’s there and we can feel it. Since we spend far more time reading and understanding code than writing it, we should constantly ask ourselves whether we are embedding excessive cognitive load into our code.

AI Agents are all the rage now. The mandate has come: “You must have AI integrated into your systems ASAP.”   What  AI doesn’t matter that much, as long as you have it, right? Today I want to talk about a pretty important aspect of applying AI and AI Agents in your systems, the security problem that is inherent to the issue. If you add an AI Agent into your system, you can bypass it using a “strongly worded letter to the editor”, basically....

What's happening with the latest releases of large language models? Is the industry hitting the edge of the scaling laws, and do the current benchmarks provide reliable performance assessments? This week on the show, Jodie Burchell returns to discuss the current state of LLM releases.

Das Wunderkind – Wunderkinder haben schon von Geburt an eine riesige Portion Talent mitbekommen. Für den Erfolg braucht es dann nur noch die richtige Förderung und etwas Glück.

If you’re using Svelte with coding assistants, you know that these assistants aren’t always aware of the latest features in Svelte 5 and SvelteKit. They’ll suggest outdated patterns, mix up the old reactive syntax with the new runes system, or simply hallucinate syntax that doesn’t exist. These problems have made LLM assistants less useful in Svelte and SvelteKit projects – so I decided to set out and build an MCP (Model Context Protocol) s..


One observation I have made working with fellow developers, especially those with less experience or just getting started is the lack of confidence to make educated/informed guesses about things. I encourage junior developers I work with to learn how...

Welcome to The Weekly, back from summer vacation! While I did miss posting I’m still not beating myself up about getting out of the routine. I’m currently on a flight back from the VLDB conference in London. I had a really great time! The papers were interesting, I got to catch up with a a handful of former coworkers, and I even gave a talk in our sponsor slot on what I’ve been working on at my day job! More than anything, though, it was ....

The AI revolution presents a critical challenge: moving from experimentation to production.
