A more recent post: mpadge.eu/blog/coding-... traces the demise of open-source software as something co-created within active communities to something built and maintained by single, isolated developers. AI is just a recent acceleration in a longer-term trend.

One blog post I'm particularly proud of: mpadge.eu/blog/machina... Your AI thinks your a dude. And that's a problem for everybody who is not. I show that the default behaviour of AI is overwhelmingly "male". AI is machina machista that normalises macho behaviour throughout society.
A post from earlier this year mpadge.eu/blog/purpose.... The end point of AI-replaceability is hierarchical collapse and economic death. Unlike purpose, joy steadfastly resists hierarchical direction. And that makes joy arguably one of the most important non-capturable resources left.
So I foolishly nuked my previous bluesky account, and am now starting anew here. This is a shouting-to-the-void request to please follow me if anything i write here or over at https:/!mpadge.eu piques your interest.

Distributed Git
How to redefine git push for an era of distributed code. No canonical source; no platform lock-in. A re-implementation of git push that sends your code anywhere and everywhere. Nice features like branch protection are still possible, but able to defined locally, remotely, or both. Single locations can be defined as "canonical" upstream sources. Or code can have no canonical source, and just spread out and be used and interacted with wherever people like.
