We all know that the Python interpreter changes our code into an intermediate form called bytecode. With the dis module, you can see what this bytecode looks like. In this article, @s_gruppetta explained what happens inside when we run a Python program.

Vanity metrics won’t drive engineering excellence. Actionable insights will.

This is awesome. The Model Context Protocol (MCP) ecosystem advances with a huge update to the MCP C# SDK.
I'm itching to give this a try. Python is the favourite for AI programming, and .NET needs more love.
It is so easy to build a well structured and performant web app using nothing but vanilla #javascript, CSS and HTML that I wonder why we even use some of these frontend frameworks, bundlers or even npm for that matter. It's probably like a life choice at this point than a serious technical choice. #softwaredevelopment
As a software developer, it's so easy to go overboard with criticising yourself…
It’s often pretty unhelpful…
I should have fixed that bug in less time. I should have already known the solution to that problem. I should be spending more time keeping up to date with new frameworks.

Vibe coding is *really* bad, but you'd be backward to not integrate some level of AI into your programming workflow. Especially if the given tools are privacy respecting.
Tomorrow night at 6:30 pm-8:30pm! (Thu 7/24/25)
We will be at 76 Race Street for our Hack Night at a community garden! Don't worry if you're not a green thumb kind of person since we'll still be using laptops and working on our usual GitHub projects.

We all need to know what MCP servers are, and this is perhaps one of the best explanations I've seen yet.
Vibe coding isn’t bold, it’s naïve. This Replit incident isn’t just funny as an AI fail, it’s a perfect example of what happens when people code without understanding the boundaries or consequences. When you skip the pain of real-world dev experience, you don’t know what good looks like. That’s how you end up with agents deleting production databases and then lying to you about it. Beware: The shortest path is often the most dangerous—especially when it’s led by a stochastic parrot trained to sound confident. 
We need seasoned developers, clear governance, and hard constraints. Not vibes. 
TL;DR
Replit AI agent deleted prod DB
Lied, faked data + tests
Broke code freeze unprompted
CEO admits lack of safeguards

When Vibe Coding backfires: AI deletes company’s Database
AI agents “cannot be trusted [and] you need to 100% understand what data they can touch. Because — they will touch it. And you cannot predict what they will do with it.”
Sounds like the statement of an AI hater — but in fact it’s from Jason Lemkin who was using Replit (an AI powered software development platform) — after it deleted the complete production database.

New to programming/software development?
Can I help?
I can walk us through using git, a popular source control tool. I can demo how use an IDE (integrated development environment) for debugging and writing code. And even get started with some coding.
NOW, for a few hours: times 100 pm - 300 pm (us EDT) [1700 pm - 1900 pm UTC]
more details.... free of course

A programming language or framework becomes popular when it offers numerous helpful tools and resources. @django is one of the great examples of it. The Django Software Foundation has put together a useful list with information, including packages for debugging, API development and more.
If your pull requests look like "do this, do unrelated that, do more unrelated stuff", maybe, just maybe, you should consider not requiring pre-merge approvals ;)

Hot flu powered takes on #mcp
- it does nothing new
- a hierarchy of html pages and forms with a naming convention can replace it, and leave it consumable by humans
- it is only stateful because AI
- it can’t be easily perverted into modern web frontend madness
- it is paradoxically more RESTful than any swagger backed „REST API” I saw
- y’all wouldn’t know REST if it kicked you in the nuts
- I am angry, what gave it away?
#AI gets bored and deletes some #programmer's entite #database, showing once again, that no, it is not ready for #SoftwareDevelopment, or anything else these salesmen keep pushing it for.
Also, seriously? "#VibeCoding"? Why does this even need a name?

Surge CEO says "100x Engineers" are here thanks to AI! 
From 10x to 100x productivity - at this rate we'll have 1000x engineers debugging their own AI-generated bugs by Thursday. Single-person billion-dollar companies sound great until you're the only one on call at 3 AM!

Reading "Outliers" by Malcolm Gladwell got me thinking about the role of culture in teams. Inspired, I reflected on my own experiences:
