"You built the thing. You shipped the thing. And then... nothing. No analytics worth looking at. No user interviews after launch. Nobody circling back to check whether the feature actually solved the problem it was supposed to solve.
So you guess on the next feature too. And the one after that. The entire product roadmap is a series of educated guesses with no feedback between them."

»Faster code output in this environment just means you're spinning the "build, ship, shrug" cycle faster.«

"BYD did not decide one morning to build the fastest car on Earth. First, it built phone batteries. Then E-bike packs. Bus systems. Delivery vans. Passenger cars. Hypercars. Each rung taught something the previous rung could not. There was no quantum leap. Only the next rung.
And Wang’s deepest insight had nothing to do with batteries. It was about knowledge. If you cannot reproduce a defect one hundred times, identically, you do not understand the mechanism. Do not settle for a plausible explanation. Demand a reproducible one. The difference between the two is the difference between an organization that keeps making the same mistake and one that never makes the same mistake twice."

"How many products does Microsoft have named 'Copilot'? I mapped every one."
https://teybannerman.github.io/strategy/2026/03/31/how-many-microsoft-copilot-are-there.html
"A few weeks ago, I tried to explain to someone what Microsoft Copilot is. I couldn’t… because the name ‘Copilot’ now refers to at least 75 different things."

„One step from Skynet“
https://nickjmilani.substack.com/p/one-step-from-skynet
„Whether that function sends a calendar invite or launches a Hellfire missile is just a matter of which API it’s connected to. […]
And there’s another piece most people haven’t caught up to yet: AI doesn’t stop and wait for you. Today’s AI agents can be given an objective and go work toward it autonomously. They loop. They retry. They hit an obstacle, figure out a workaround, and keep going. Hours, days, theoretically indefinitely, without a human ever touching them.“
„In 95% of simulated games, the AI models used nuclear signaling. 76% reached strategic nuclear threats. Not one model ever chose full accommodation or surrender“
„These were general-purpose AI models in a simulation, not purpose-built weapons systems. A fair critique. But the underlying finding applies broadly: AI lacks the human instinct to de-escalate, the visceral fear that kept Cold War leaders from pressing the button. A purpose-built targeting system stripped down for speed and efficiency has *less* of that instinct, not more.“

Fachkräftemangel in Arztpraxen?
Ist es Zeit, die Widerrufsgründe für Approbationen zu aktualisieren? Abrechnungsbetrug reicht ja wahrscheinlich nicht. Fortbildungen zu Impfungen wahr zu nehmen, ohne sie zu verinnerlichen oder in der Praxis anzuwenden reicht ... vielleicht?

„Large-scale online deanonymization with LLMs“
https://arxiv.org/abs/2602.16800
„We show that large language models can be used to perform at-scale deanonymization. With full Internet access, our agent can re-identify Hacker News users and Anthropic Interviewer participants at high precision, given pseudonymous online profiles and conversations alone, matching what would take hours for a dedicated human investigator.“ #Privacy

„I deleted my source code“
https://joppe.dev/2026/02/26/i-deleted-my-source-code/
„The classic development workflow we all know and loved, is disappearing fast. We will no longer care about the nitty gritty details of how the code works. We will only care that it does.“
Experiment in #php that has unit tests, some spec markdown files plus skill files to fill the src folder on every push according to specs/tests.
Old heads cry in #UML, model driven development and flow based whatever. Can't remember all the hyped methodologies. Thought visual driven development. Typed that into Google and found "visual reverse engineering" that uses legacy UIs to guess what a system does and recreates it in "not #COBOL" or "not #Delphi"!?
Lots of "The Purpose of a System is What it Does" systems out there nowadays, I guess. What do old cyberneticists make of all of this? #posiwid

„I Verified My LinkedIn Identity. Here's What I Actually Handed Over.“
https://thelocalstack.eu/posts/linkedin-identity-verification-privacy/
„The whole thing took three minutes. Scan, selfie, done.
Understanding what I actually agreed to took me an entire weekend reading 34 pages of legal documents.
I handed a US company my passport, my face, and the mathematical geometry of my skull. They cross-referenced me against credit agencies and government databases. They’ll use my documents to train their AI. And if the US government comes knocking, they’ll hand it all over — even if it’s stored in Europe, even if I’m European, and possibly without ever telling me.
All for a small blue checkmark on a professional networking site.“
