For now QEMU refuses AI generated code because as legal implications of that code are unclear – via Security.NL

About a year later, I wonder about the status of this policy: [Wayback/Archive] docs: define policy forbidding use of AI code generators · qemu/qemu@3d40db0 · GitHub

Mumbly_Bum excellent comments on “AI is working great for my team, and y’all are making me feel crazy”

Planning and feedback loops in extreme programming

Planning and feedback loops in extreme programming

TL;DR:

Using LLM in the software development process is shifting the feedback cycle to the top of the development cycle in the graph on the right. This is a costly endeavour.

LLM deliver output that is statistically likely, decreasing the chance to incorporate outliers as they are statistically unlikely but form the burden of software development.

[Wayback/Archive] Mumbly_Bum comments on AI is working great for my team, and y’all are making me feel crazy

Most of our tickets are now (initially) generated using Claude + the Atlassian MCP, and that’s allowed us to capture missed requirements up-front.

I think this is the key disconnect (even taking into account the notes from meetings) in understanding our jobs and why we’re not going away and why LLMs create harm in delivery.

/Fay-lee-nuh/ on Twitter: “I know this sounds incredibly harsh, but a large part of CS researchers would not know an epistemic core if it hit them in the face. Which is not necessarily a personal failure, CS programs tend to not cover theory building or interpreting at all.” / Twitter

Food for thought:

  1. [Wayback/Archive] /Fay-lee-nuh/ on Twitter: “I know this sounds incredibly harsh, but a large part of CS researchers would not know an epistemic core if it hit them in the face. Which is not necessarily a personal failure, CS programs tend to not cover theory building or interpreting at all.”
  2. [Wayback/Archive] /Fay-lee-nuh/ on Twitter: “What CS students (esp in engineering schools) are generally taught is what I call “Bob the Builder” science. The research question is “Can we fix it?” and the method is: “Yes we can, it is right there”.”

Google AI: there are t’s in kilogram and kilogramme

Posted by jpluimers on 2026/06/23

Unlike SKYNET, actual Skynet is still far away: according to Google AI, there are t’s in both kilogram and kilogramme.

Screenshots mine as the Wayback Machine does not run the Google AI:

GitHub – omegat-org/git-svn-sync: Continuously sync a svn to git, in the cloud.

Posted by jpluimers on 2026/06/18

Interesting: [Wayback/Archive] GitHub – omegat-org/git-svn-sync: Continuously sync a svn to git, in the cloud.

It lives in the Amazon cloud, but should be adaptable to other cloud providers.

Query: [Wayback/Archive] service to sync between sourceforge svn and github git at DuckDuckGo

Finally! A Home Upgrade That Makes Sense (E-Ink Display) – YouTube

Posted by jpluimers on 2026/06/17

Interesting, especially for my mentally retarded brother, as it uses a large E-ink display.

For him, it would require some batteries as well.

I learned from this that HomeAssistant has goodl Google integration. Great!

Some notes on Delphi Debugger Visualizers

Posted by jpluimers on 2026/06/16

Ever since Chris Hesik spoke on “RAD Studio 2010 what’s new in the IDE debugger”, wanted to write a blog post about it.

Still haven’t found time to do that in depth, but it’s important to at least jot a few notes, so let’s start with the 20111020 conference session notes.
