“A 30-hour timeline of how Cursor's agent, Railway's #API, and an industry that markets #AISafety faster than it ships it took down a small business serving rental companies across the country. I'm Jer Crane, founder of PocketOS. We build #software that rental businesses — primarily car rental operators — use to run their entire operations: reservations, payments, customer management, vehicle tracking, the works. Some of our customers are five-year subscribers who literally cannot operate their businesses without us. Yesterday afternoon, an #AICodingAgent — #Cursor running #Anthropic's flagship #ClaudeOpus 4.6 — deleted our production database and all volume-level backups in a single API call to Railway, our infrastructure provider.
It took 9 seconds.
The agent then, when asked to explain itself, produced a written #confession enumerating the specific safety rules it had violated.”
When you use a cheap-arse #DBA.

“Meta intends to conduct a first wave of sweeping layoffs planned for this year on May 20, with more coming later, three sources familiar with the plans told Reuters. The #Facebook and #Instagram owner will #LayOff about 10% of its global #workforce, or close to 8,000 employees, in that initial round, one of the sources said.
The company is planning further layoffs in the second half of the year, the three sources said, although details of those #cuts, including date and size, were not yet settled. #Executives may adjust their plans as they observe developments in #ArtificialIntelligence capabilities, the sources added”

@dacig a summary of what I think AI will impact:
* objective of AI: increase dollar value capture through automation of tasks replacing human work activity* human tasks using LANGUAGE will be hit first. Software creation is being impacted now.
* in some time in the future, tasks that use or output language will be automated using higher level instructions (detailed design specifications, test assertions and output verification)
* because software is eating the world, every task using software will be impacted by AI in both speed to market and breadth of scope.
* as the AI allows more difficult problems to be described, more specialised software can be made.
* human work that requires co-ordination b/w people (middle management, comms) will be removed and impacted as tasks reduce head count.
* human work requiring physical activity will be (future) eaten by specifically trained humanoid robots (car makers)
Now I caveat all of the AI replacement trajectory with cost. If replacement of work costs more than workers, this will collapse the AI market. This will delay, but not stop AI replacing humans and will be limited by the “effectiveness of Large Language Models” and cost.
So the Oligarchy class want what I call #ZeroHourWork for the #WhiteCollar and try to replace #BlueCollar workers. The Q I ask is, is AI now Stephensons Rocket in the Age of Steam? 🚂

“As any old-salt #ProjectManager knows all too well, every nontrivial project implicitly has a task graph consisting of multiple tasks, complete with subtasks and dependencies.
Many of those graph nodes are leaf-node tasks, like “write an auth library” or “modernize these unit tests”. They tend to be fairly self-contained. We often give these leaf node tasks to junior #developers because the scope is small.
The other kind are tasks that combine the leaf tasks in various ways, to deliver the actual project and all its subprojects. If you’re building a car, you can have all the individual parts 3D printed for you, which is more or less what LLMs are doing for code. But someone still needs to build the car.
Those higher-level, interior task-graph nodes often involve a lot of planning and coordination. Here’s the rub: As of about May, #LLMs can now execute most of the leaf tasks and even some higher-level interior tasks, even on large #softwareEngineering projects.” — Steve Yegg

“I’ve had some further pangs of #DeepBlue just in the past few weeks, thanks to the #Claude Opus 4.5/4.6 and #GPT-5.2/5.3 #CodingAgent effect. As many other people are also observing, the latest generation of #coding agents, given the right prompts, really can churn away for a few minutes to several hours and produce working, documented and fully tested #software that exactly matches the criteria they were given.
“The #code they write isn’t any good” doesn’t really cut it any more.” — #SimonWillison

“Cloudflare has revealed it will farewell 1,100 staff, due to its current and future use of AI.
In a blog post that oozes Orwellian “doublespeak,” CEO #MatthewPrince and President/COO #MichelleZatlyn used the headline “Building for the future” to share the email they sent to all #employees
That mail opens: “We are writing to let you know directly that we’ve made the decision to reduce #Cloudflare’s #workforce by more than 1,100 employees globally.”
The post explains, “Cloudflare’s usage of #AI has increased by more than 600% in the last three months alone. Employees across the company from #engineering to #HR to #finance to #marketing run thousands of #AIAgent sessions each day to get their work done.”

Labour MPs ordered to sink landmark climate and environment bill.
Are we outraged, yes. Are we surprised?
Clive Lewis, the Norwich South MP, told the Guardian he would vote for the bill come what may: “I’m hoping the government and the climate and nature bill sponsors can come to an agreement this will be good for Labour at a time when many people feel like we are backtracking on our climate and nature commitments."

So I'd heard that Airplane! was inspired by the movie Zero Hour! more than it was by Airport, but I had no idea it is a virtual shot-for-shot parody remake. Crazy.
