- If we had LLM powered coding agents 10 years ago, we would still be using Jenkins for all CI/CD automation.
- woah, that's very serious. you don't even have to be authenticated? apparently that's some reason to keep databases in private network even if the authentication mechanisms are strong bigdata.2minutestreaming.com/p/mongobleed...
- Woah. It's like when Sun Microsystems was acquired by Oracle. Nails on traditional media's coffin. about.netflix.com/en/news/netf...
- I just completed "Cafeteria" - Day 5 - Advent of Code 2025 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2025/day/5 Still going strong, I solved second part in o(n*n) complexity, not sure if there is a more efficient solution.
- Just completed "Printing Department" - Day 4 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2025/day/4 I like it when second parts also solve first parts.
- #AdventOfCode Day 3 is also done, I was about to implement a stack at some point but one inner loop solved the issue 💪c
- Finished Day 2 of #AdventOfCode, I'm not quite sure why but I did it better than Day 1. Maybe my code puzzle skills are warming up
- vibe coding = hissiyat kodlama veya hissikablelvuku kodlama, yani vuku bulmadan hissedilen ürün veyahut kod parçacığı
- Everyone is aware that definition and responsibilities of software engineers are changing, quite swiftly. But to which direction? Can we at least portray the short term requirements?
- Github announced they are moving their servers to Azure yesterday. In an unrelated incident, Github experienced a proper outage today.
- Cloud security is like riding motorcycle, there is always some road to ride, you can never have enough of it
- But it works on my local container..
- From Staff Engineer's Path about importance of building experience for being a good role model: > Experience comes through time, exposure, and study—not innate aptitude. So, don't let AI kill your learning process.
- I love mapping culturally established idioms between different languages. Just figured out "destur var mı?" in Turkish can be translated into English as "you decent?"
- In one of my learning games in EU4 in the beginning, playing with Ottomans, I managed to get a Queen's Regency. terrible heir, couldn't declare war, it was terrible
- Despite codecompanion.olimorris.dev, AI assistance in neovim is way behind VSCode or similar editors' experience, especially when it comes to agent mode. neovim is not an IDE of course, before AI assistants the trade-off made sense, but now, the tide is not on neovim's side.
- Hey guys, please stop breaking the windows, it's affecting all of us
- what I want to say in slack general channel
- to overworked and behind-the-deadline colleagues
- #Kandilli observatory website for reference, it is failing to handle the load www.koeri.boun.edu.tr/scripts/lst8...
- #AWSTurkiye2025 now Gozde Ozcel is talking about Clickhouse and why @edgedelta.bsky.social chose to use it
- they didn't prefer the clickhouse cloud to have full control over the data
- #AWSTurkiye2025 now listening to Yunus Tıraş, he is flexing his network skills at a global level using aws under the disguise of low latency realtime game programming :)
- finished my talk about s3 ransomware and remediation scenarios, hope everyone enjoyed it! #AWSTurkiye2025
- now darya petrashka is talking about bedrock agents #AWSTurkiye2025
- Keynote from Usman Khalid, director of aws serverless
- gen ai applications on severless, interesting idea, maybe it is something backed by lambda but has a different name in the front
- First there is bedrock but not in our region :(
-
View full threadwe talked after the talk, so I will check automated reasoning very soon
- #AWSTurkiye2025 here we start
- Best way to learn something - make a presentation about it!
- I'm told consultants operate in a similar manner
- Magnus yine kazandı :)
- Türk kahvesi kötü bir kahve. Demleme yöntemi belli bir seviyeye kadar kabul edilebilir, zira üst seviyeye de çıkamaz, ancak tr'deki kahve çekirdeği seçimi, öğütülmüş muhafaza edilmesi vs baya rezil.
- Eski usül taze çekilmiş vakitli ve doğru kavrulmuş single orijin Yemen kahvesi bulabilsek de muhtemelen fiyat x 10 olur
- Çok pahalı olduğundan da değil, sektördeki kar marjı onu gerektirdiği için
- Working on IAM is not always fun, although absolutely necessary. If you feel AWS IAM is terrible, which can happen sometimes, try setting up IAM for a pet project in GCP. Then try Oracle. AWS will feel like oasis
- Hadi biraz ESG övelim
- My talk proposal to AWS Community Day Istanbul is accepted! It will be about S3, ransomware, and things - hopefully
- My ghostty journey so far: 1. Oh it feels fast. I wonder if I can use it with my current tmux setup 2. Apparently I copy-pasted my tmux and alacritty config a lot before; let me do it from scratch with this one 3. !?!?!?!? 4. I figured out a lot of stuff, but some shortcuts are overridden, no idea
- 5. Hmm, let me check the bare-naked functionalities more 6. These seem pretty good actually, why do I need tmux again? 7. It doesn't have all the futures of tmux, but everything else is so native & fast, let me try it this way. 8. it actually works, nice
- Now I need to reset my brain
- Graeber suggests that European thinkers in enlightenment times were inspired by the ideals of individual liberty and political equality from Native American sources
- as a result of the criticism and examples from indigenous American intellectuals over European institutions
- That seems to be an unintended consequence of the generations of colonization. Pretty interesting and thought provoking. from his book The Dawn of Everything
