My mental model for software development has changed from "building" to "growing". Whipping up a stack that gets to the outcome is cheap, but all the hard work is in trimming it down, making it sane, well architected, maintainable etc.

"All 174 passengers later landed in Tel Aviv safely. Just as well their pit-stop was in Saudi Arabia where they were medically tended to by Saudi Muslims, and not say - the Netherlands - where they’d have to give up all their dried figs from Judea and Samaria and denounce their Zionism to the Dutch before being able to board another plane home" evebarlow.substack.com/p/the…

I have to admit that the random AI generated #mobx pull requests I receive, fixing very subtle bugs, is pretty nice!

Waarom maakt iedereen zich nou zo druk om Wout? Als het Egyptische elftal bidt tijdens het WK: geen probleem. Maar als Wout Weghorst openlijk vertelt dat hij kracht put uit zijn geloof, is hij ineens ‘raar’ of ‘krankzinnig’. Laat je niet gekmaken, Wout. Veel zegen op je werk.

🚀 Thanks @mweststrate for accepting and merging my PR #4694 into MobX ✅ From7.0.1 onward, every developer running npm install mobx ships with the fix. 🥶 Still processing that.

Hot take: if your app has to do a network request to become interactive or useful, it’s not an app. It’s a glorified bookmark.

I triage 20-40 security vulnerability reports a week. Almost all of them are now AI-written. And we usually get 3-5 duplicates of each one. That's the new reality of being a maintainer. 🧵
