Racing Mind
I’ve never read so few books as I do now. After 15 minutes of reading, my mind races back to my projects. So, I’m having to pick the ones I’m really interested in. I’ve developed a tactic that has been working when I lose sleep: writing. I just go to the living room and start…

Functional Misalignment due to Agent Hallucination
I saw this image posted on X with reference to a development team losing substantial volumes of work due to agent hallucination.

Repos and staging environments (CI)…

I have this feeling that legislators will go absolutely anal control-freak in the coming years, creating all sorts of complexities and bureaucracies imaginable, affecting all industries at once. It will be very hard for the average person or entrepreneur to build a consistent tech solution by themselves—and, especially, to keep that solution running bug-free in…

Start as Early as Possible
by Brivael Every single one of the brightest people I’ve run into over the last few years realized the exact same thing at the exact same time: the degree system is a Ponzi scheme. The sequence is always identical. They get into a top school. Within six months, they realize that what they’re being taught…

I am Not a Black Belt
I am a black belt. I am a second dan (nidan 二段) Aikido black belt with the original school of Aikido, the Aikikai Foundation. I started Aikido practice in early 1997 after a holiday trip to the US. When Aikido was introduced in Brazil, it had inherited local rules from the Judo federation back then,…
