Even if you're doing a great job closely supervising your LLM coding ... for the love of all that it holy, stop pushing a new GitHub release every ten minutes.

Being able to tell GitHub to only notify the user when new releases are cut is a critical attention-management feature that you are breaking.

(Please do not reply with "shouldn't be using LLMs in the first place", "close supervision is impossible" etc noise)

Genuinely having a great time reading @tara 's exploration of purpose-built business machines (in the vein of the IBM 5280): https://www.tara.sh/posts/2026/2026-07-24_cobolito400_essay/

Honestly her site is one of my favorite little blogs. There's a fully essay behind the post!

As an industry, I know we're not going back, but it's neat reflecting on how different engineers over the decades have thought about _data_ and data portability as a first-class citizen.
