I liked the work bringing Doom to the Amiga, without actually using Amiga code.
And I learned some new things about the history of Civility in the BBC podcast.
Leadership
How We Encourage Self-Improvement at Buffer - $1000 is nice, it is more than in many organisations. I don't think it is enough.
TBM 370: Dependencies Aren't Your Problem - "Shift the goal from managing dependencies, to focusing on the throughput of potentially value-creating activities"
Vibe Engineering: A Field Manual for AI Coding in Teams - rather than "vibe coding". I think this mostly has to come bottom up.
How Octopus Energy used culture to reach the top - some good ideas, and some of them might actually be in place. I like that they don't use "no-reply" emails.
Engineering
Cordoomceps - replacing an Amiga's brain with Doom - I used to juggle the Blitter and Copper a bit, but this is pretty out there.
How far can we push AI autonomy in code generation? - not quite there yet, especially about implementing the functionality
Measuring the Impact of Early-2025 AI on Experienced Open-Source Developer Productivity - in this research, the developers think they are faster, but are slower.
Vibe code is legacy code - fully agree.
On the use of LLM assistants for kernel development [LWN] - mostly about the policies.
From the archive: Bicycle graveyards: why do so many bikes end up underwater? [Podcast] - because we can't have nice things.
Urbanism
Summer Streets returns with uninterrupted car-free stretch across Manhattan - only in the summer, only some roads, only on Saturday, only in the morning, … well, it is something.
Girona to count number of tourists and map their routes across Old Town - by monitoring mobile phone signals.
The Case AGAINST One-Way Streets [YouTube] - Superblocks are one-way streets, it's not all bad. Big one-way roads are bad.
La nova Gran Via des de l'aire [YouTube] - some more drone shots of the new bits of Barcelona
Random Fires
Visualization of forest fires 2025 Provisional data - I finally found the current data and a visualization about local wildfires.
I Deleted My Second Brain - this was in one of the extra links yesterday. If I deleted my second brain, I had no brain.
The NNCPNET email network [LWN] - go weirdly old school. I used to use UUCP for email.
Germany’s ‘oldest and biggest’ gay nightclub declares bankruptcy - killed by Berlin and apps.
Civility: talking with those who disagree with you [Podcast] - I wasn't even aware of the reformation origins.
Other Links
- Tim Bray: Long Links - including Instax camera at cartel wedding.
