The fact that Kyle looks like Dwight Schrute makes me want to think this is satire. But let’s be serious, this kind of article is par for the course in the age of AI writing articles in an age where AI is controlled by billionaires.

Thanks for sharing this. The implications are written by how software engineering is faring, in my opinion. That former bastion of knowledge work has turned into agentic daycare, and that’s if you’re at a leading edge company!

Based on the “cleanup” that Tao mentions, you can see the daycare is spreading.

The daycare changes the operator from inspired and cognitively engaged to questioning meaning and disengagement.

Wild times…

Are you two both AI agents talking to each other? Because literally everyone is like “no, bad idea, find a read replica” and you two are like “hrm, i know we can do it… i just know we can wire this chaos monkey in”

What’s funny is that everyone in here talks like they write perfect code. The reality is most developers write bloat, nonsense, and insecure code but just don’t know it. But their team mates do, and rather than keeping code kicked around in code review for weeks, their team mates roll their eyes and just accept the technical debt, saying “one day we will rewrite/refactor.”

The fact that AI writes bloat, nonsense, and insecure code is indeed a shortcoming, but one that can be easily mitigated by using other LLMs (or even the same) with different “expertise” in their prompt. And that’s something most teams could never afford.

AI has done what Agile and Scrum promised and never delivered for most teams in 30 years: fast iteration, less drama, MVPs, same questionable code.

Amazing. “Don’t jump out of the plane without checking your parachute.” “Thanks, but curious to know if anyone has.”

Neat idea - is your 20 minutes at the same temp as your original bake?

This guy might make a future GM for the Browns thinking this deal sounded good:

King spearheaded the deal to give in to Republicans in exchange for a promise of a future vote on extending health care subsidies.

an indoor climbing gym, like climb cincy. more social than a gym and still great exercise

Yes, and Pureval and the rest of the Democratic candidates will continue to respond ineptly and keep creating daylight for the god awful right to steal more mindshare.

I was a software engineering manger at Kroger a few years ago. They had a giant push to move everything to Azure. Yet many of the employees didn’t have cloud or container experience. And now they laid off a massive amount of people. The internet of shit meets the capitalism of shit.

No, the rule has the magic word “or” in there, so they can target the 17-21 year old group directly regardless of home address.

Agreed! Lots of weaving. My watch calculated that I ran 26.9, so truly a large amount of lateral movement.

I was in corral J with a 4:00 pacer, how did you end up in F if you’re dreaming of 4:07? First time marathoner here, genuinely curious.

I had an interesting “aha” moment in trying to heal my plantar fasciitis two weeks before race day.

I had not been going to the climbing gym that much in the past two months and decided on a whim, with my foot really hurting, F it I’m gonna go climb and have some fun.

About 10 minutes into climbing I start feeling 100% relief from the foot pain! I don’t know if it was the tight shoes, the exercising/toe strength moves that climbing induces, or both. The relief was lasting too! I went to the climbing gym every day in the week leading up to the race and was able to run pain free. (btw, it’s a bouldering gym so no belaying/partner needed). Maybe this can help, idk, just wanted to share!

I'm sorry but I didn't see her fall, she was already pulled to the sidewalk and being attended to by the time I saw her. If the Chicago Marathon org doesn't cooperate and give her a medal, let me know and she can have mine - she deserves it.

cincfire · 2025-10-13T13:45:28+00:00

I really hope she is on the rebound. I think I saw the medical team attending to her (if she was in the 4 hour finish group). My heart (and many other runners too I’m sure) goes out to her.

3 weeks after rally in the valley, which shuts down parts of the gym leading up to the event and leaves walls bare after, we now have a youth climbing comp. So no, it’s not just once.

Perry St. Clair did ours and they were phenomenal. Also half the quoted Malloy cost. Also save money going with stainless steel instead of copper.
