The Subscriptions We Choose Shape Us There has been a growing number of articles and personal stories from people trying to move away from Google, Slack, and other large platforms. The reasons vary. Geopolitics plays a role. European gov...

I did not plan to end up writing this article but it grew out of my first couple of months doing consulting!

I like the challenges so far!

I tried to move from Brave to FireFox, I will let you know if with my current workload I can stay connected to google or slack for more than a day!

I smashed the like button!! Good work

Bistrot in in Italy. Most likely from someone tired of genai

Reading news my feeling is that the security implication of this sudden switch in development practices is massive

Well even if I could, it does not sound smart to look for an upgrade just now 😁

I have a laptop that 3y ago I thought was more than enough: 16GB RAM, 500Gb disk space.

I always under pressure now. Disk is also an issue at this point.
Ok I jump in between many different projects, but it was a problem even when I was not jumping this much.

Three customers, three different way to manage payments, contracts and so on 😁

thanks!

nice! I will look at it!

annoying but reasonable! One of my customers uses exit node because one of the service they use needs certain IPs and so on 😕 Thanks @apenwarr.ca Tailscale is awesome!

am I the only one constantly kicked out from Google accounts, sometime LinkedIn as well and Slack? I think it is caused by #vpn in particular #tailscale with exit node enabled. I am moving in between exit node more often than usual those days.

this is exactly why I feel like it is time to move to something else. I still think it is a nice tool if you happen in a team that decide to split the painful part of maintaining it, and you can use it for as many things as possible. But alone, just too much.

Today development is agent orchestration. I am questioning why all the industry picked up this new definition of our field so quickly if as you said they enjoyed coding so much 😅

Are we so excited about all this agentic development because we managed to make development looking like a nightmare?

I think I should move into embedded development

I can't fight against nixos/python anymore. I need to find the time to move to something else

what about stream and twitch? do we have agent developer vibe coding and people or other agents watching? Never been too much into streaming so I am just curious

I mean, LLMs are supposed to be the one that make fuzzy replies from data 😁 I understand what you are saying they need a way but yeah not into it just yet 😆

I feel like I can use successfully openapi spec for that. maybe. Who knows! More code is obviously the right solution

well I did not link the article blog.cloudflare.com/code-mode/ :D

ah here it is! blog.cloudflare.com/code-mode/

Thanks! This is helpful! I also noticed that I did not share the link the weekend wipe from my memory where I read it xD

I don't understand how it is supposed to work but.. this articles says that we should write MCP to make LLM to interact with our external service. Then we need to build an SDK for them in typescript because they can't use MCP effectively. Why they can't just use the service SDK directly? 😕

What if "LLMs looking smart and useful" in software development is correlated to the enshittification of development itself?

node sounds the most critical but I think overall any language "popular" enough suffers similar issues. For sure node never developed a valuable alternative to "npm all the things"

I am also not sure how projects that care about being up-to-date can survive without services like this. I mean it is a lot of work to do it on a schedule

Today I configured renovatebot to a 2y old go project. Wow... I am not ready for what will happen in the other npm/svelte project I want to do the same for.

I am also not sure I have the energy to do it at this point

Generative AI and Wikipedia editing: What we learned in 2025 Like many organizations, Wiki Education has grappled with generative AI, its impacts, opportunities, and threats, for several years. As an organization that runs large-scale programs to bring new e…

Nice use case to study accuracy from LLMs wikiedu.org/blog/2026/01...

it’s okay to admit that LLM-shaped software development just isn’t fun for you. You can accept the consequences and still dislike the shift.

Whether code generation sticks around or not, the craft already feels very different—and I’m not convinced that’s neutral.

Anyone else wrestling with this?
