So many people posting on SM ”I asked this LLM to analyze the political situation” and why do I have to live on the same planet as them?

Twitter is like that planet destroying weapon on the Death Star, but its energy source is stupidity and when harnessed can destroy countries. The left is mad because the right figured out how to use it at scale first. Europe needs to switch it off or be destroyed by American culture war crossfire.

Everyone who lives in my house is like a little squirrel but instead of hoarding nuts for the winter they hoard phone chargers in their rooms and no one can ever remember where they buried them.

Currently designing a system. Then I’m going to feed it to an LLM and ask the LLM to design the architecture. Get the same result. Write article about AI replacing architects. Get clicks.

I think the book buying public have remarkable taste of late.

I may have miscalculated. I assumed that because Residues was the pragmatic how-to-get-it-done and The Architect’s Paradox was the nerdy back story that The Architect’s Paradox wouldn’t be as popular. Turns out everyone likes the nerdy stuff!

The US constitution is the solid architecture that means that the actual implementation can be complete lunatics and it will keep running. This is a good way to think about software architecture and AI coding assistants.

One measure of success is the number of desperate old men emailing you to say “You’re not allowed to think like that”.

Authors, if you see this, it's a sign to post the first line of your book. “This book was an accident.”

And so work begins on the third book. This time the focus is on the technical aspects of software architecture, bringing the journey through philosophy, then through complexity science, finally to the algorithm, reconnecting architecture with computer science which it long ago drifted away from.

"Teaching of philosophy ... tends to implant in philosophers an intimidatingly nit-picking superego, a blend of their most impressive teachers and their most competitive colleagues, which guides their writing by means of constant anticipations of guilt and shame." Bernard Williams

When you ask real philosophers to review the book and expect them to critique your contrarian philosophical takes but instead they report back that they don’t trust their software people anymore after reading it…

Maybe when you have a huge software failure the answer isn’t ”How we could build this better” but instead ”We should have used people instead of code” but this has NOT occurred to anyone in the last 30 years. The best we can up with is autogenerated code based on the shit that failed already.
