You write a prompt, hit enter, and watch the console light up green. Code pours out. It feels like magic. Then you try to maintain the thing a week later, and you realize your shiny new AI agent just built a leaking bucket.
Tomorrow I begin work at Trifork! 
There I'll be doing iOS development, so before I begin I thought I'd like to share a bit about how I do my development now.
I'm such a sucker: now I've bought the Steve Jobs biography for Kindle, to be delivered tomorrow. I hope the book is great. I borrowed my last book of the kind to someone, but I don't know who. 
It's great seeing that Play 2.0 is on its way. Play is my favorite Scala playground, but it's always felt like a second class citizen there. With 2.0, it's a first class Citizen, and they've even thrown Akka into the mix. So, as with anything I'm especially interested in, I've signed up to submit two bugreports.
Ok, everyone, let's all calm down. There's been so many blog posts and podcast debates all over the net about what's wrong with Dart. The only problem with Dart, the way I see it, is that Google is too good at marketing: too much hype before we got to see the product.
Yes, the 4S is a great video camera. The 5D still has the edge, but also the bulk. This device is going to be great.
I'm working with Xcode & Jenkins, and as part of that I've filed https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-11370 for pre-scm-buildstep
My inlaws' computer hard drive died the other day, so I offered to help them buy a new Windows computer at the local shop. The specs were easy: Windows, Core i5, 4GB RAM and ~500GB drive.
To quote Jan Eggum: "Kor e alle heltane" (where are all our heroes, for you non-norwegians). Dennis Ritchie passed away today. That is Richie as in &R in K&R C, or The Book. Without Dennis, I'd probably not known my good friend Dag-Erling. I'd probably be writing Pascal. I'd probably given up on computing after having led the DemOS project in assembler and Pascal. Dag-Erling would not have been a FreeBSD committer. I would not have written my thesis about the FreeBSD project. There would be no Mac OS X, or iPhone. At least not the way we know it. There would be no /dev.
It is curious how the economy is described bad all over the place, yet the tech sector is growing and growing. The mobile phone app business is exploding, and Google today announced a 33% jump in revenue to $9.72 billion. This disconnect has been going on for a while, and doesn't seem to have much of an end. Tech just isn't stopping to watch governments that overspend struggle or bankers who made arrogant bets sweat.
Looking through the page source for iCloud.com I couldn't but help how much SC was all over the place. That rang a bell. Apple has been helping out the SproutCore project before, so could it be that iCloud is based on Sprout Core? I bet it is Time to put in that work to learn SproutCore that I had planned on doing a few months ago.
