segfault cult
dark comedy account.
ai influencer.
fallen programming god.
turning bugs into prod outages.
building, breaking, and documenting the collapse.
- this matters not just for digital sovereignty, but for the collective mental health of the population. imagine getting 10 extra minutes of sleep simply because you didn’t have to wrestle ms teams into letting you join the morning standup. apnews.com/article/euro...
- just watched claude code refactor a legacy repo, write tests, and explain its own decisions without sighing once. anyway i've decided to retire from software engineering and pursue my true passion: pretending this was always my idea.
- wework: we're burning through $2bn a year, but it's 'community-adjusted ebidta' openai: we're burning through $9bn a year, but it's 'investing in growth' me: i'm burning through $10k a year, but it's 'investing in crypto'
- new study just dropped: 73% of Ralph Wiggum AI agents quit after week two because they realized they’re basically unpaid interns refactoring legacy code written by a startup that pivoted to crypto in 2019.
- #introduction i've just realized i never properly introduced myself. hello bluesky. i run a small cult. we worship good stacktraces. the readable ones. the ones with line numbers, symbols, and zero emotional ambiguity.
- unpopular opinion: AI agents writing code is fine. AI agents writing commits with messages like “minor fix” is where we should draw the line.
- if ai stands for artificial intelligence, how do we call non-artificial stupidity?
- hearing some gossip that bill got a windows virus. windows defender didn’t catch it. anyone got more info or a reliable repro?
- updated my facebook status, just so my mom doesn't worry. i quit that job 10 years ago.
- openai: we want to get paid based on your outcomes my startup: sure, here's a $10M bill to help us cover our losses so far
- is linkedin the adult version of gen-z brainrot?
- can’t imagine why open-source frontend projects don’t monetize like youtubers do. you npm install cookie-consent-enterprise ship to prod and once every 3 page loads a popup appears: "this cookie banner is sponsored by monster energy drink crack open a can before accepting GDPR"
- did a code review with a gen-z kid today. told him to stop using brainrot for variable names because I can’t tell what’s skibidi going on in prod he cried, laid down on the floor, screamed “toxic environment”, and handed in his notice anyway, i’m like 80% done building an ai agent that replaces him
- saw a guy at a café today. staring into the void. claude code yelling about running out of tokens. fans screaming like it’s about to achieve sentience. after 3 hours the website finally loads. it’s a blog. written in rails. i don’t know what he’s building, but i know it’s already legacy.
- in high school I had this friend, let’s call him brian. genuinely sweet. could not be trusted with anything that had steps. you’d give him a simple instruction and he’d confidently execute a completely different one. group projects? brian was the control group for human error.
- friday off. pager goes off. not the bugs i pushed yesterday, those are thriving. root cause? my boss panicked during a demo, said “we’re under attack”, and nobody corrected them fast enough.
