It's a Tool
It's a Person
It's a Hypervigilance ProblemThe tech industry's insistence on distinguishing between "soft skills" — caring for people — and "hard skills" — engineering rigor — is a reflection of the Cybernetics split itself. First-order thinking framed as "hard skills." Second-order thinking framed as "soft skills." This distinction, based on felt sense alone, does not hold under epistemic pressure. Neither does it within the causality-driven epistemology of the tech industry itself, in which only measurable impact is real, or as Silicon Valley likes to put it: #MoveFastAndBreakThings
Imagine Margaret Hamilton had built NASA's Apollo 11 flight computer with that mindset. History would remember a failed moon landing and dead astronauts. "Hard skills" and "soft skills" are two sides of the same coin. The care is the code and the code is the care. Hamilton — the woman who coined the term "software engineering" — understood this. Silicon Valley chose to forget.

“…the context of software and any context where life and limb are in play react very differently to things if one tries to fail fast.”

Interesting, so apparently the #CTO of #Cloudstrike is #GeorgeKurtz, the same CTO who oversaw the fiasco about 10 years ago when #McAfee #antivirus was falsely flagging a crucial system file within #Windows, and apparently he had been bragging about just how fast they were getting these updates out... Despite the fact that the updates in question included code that ran inside of kernel space at startup, meaning if they didn't run properly on any system that system would crash before it could even get to the login screen.
So clearly we know that there was some bad management involved, and while it was definitely not the fault of just one person, this offers us some insight into what the #management problem was: a focus on speed over carefulness, in a situation where a broad range of critical infrastructure could be crashed if a mistake was made.
"Move fast and break things" indeed...

Zum Glück hat @glyph vor ein paar Monaten seinen Artikel «Safer, not Later» geschrieben, in dem er
1️⃣ die Vorgeschichte des Mottos packend erläutert,
2️⃣ die realen Probleme auflistet, welche das Motto (richtig angewendet) löst,
3️⃣ wieso nur so effiziente, vertrauenswürdige und stabile Softwareentwicklung möglich ist und
4️⃣ was passiert, wenn man es falsch anwendet.2/n

«Move fast and break things» war bis vor wenigen Jahren das Motto von #Facebook, jetzt #Meta, und hat die Tech-Industrie geprägt wie wohl kein zweites.
Es ist ein sehr mächtiges Motto, welches moderne, zuverlässige und vertrauenswürdige #Softwareentwicklung motiviert. Aber leider wurde es auch zu häufig falsch verstanden (oder missbraucht) und hat damit viel Schaden angerichtet.

"But over the last quarter-century or so, the idea of disruption has also metastasized into a sort of cult, the credo of which holds that everything is to be disrupted, all the time, and that if you're not changing everything, you're losing."

@ErikJonker Het blijft niet bij "lezen", een AI trainen betekent het maken van afgeleide werken. Dat iets online staat wil niet zeggen dat het publiek domein is. Mensen zetten dingen online binnen een context met een bepaald doel. Het "Grab all you can" waarmee BigTech zijn datasets nu vult negeert dit volledig.

Highly recommend this 16 min. podcast commentary on #generativeAI by Ezra Klein, who has talked w/a lot of AI engineers: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-ezra-klein-show/id1548604447?i=1000604814130 It's not on his NYTimes p.] .... #ai #chatgpt4 #movefastandbreakthings on steroids. If we collectively can't slow down this dev’t to the speed of #human #deliberation & #intention maybe this will spur #humandevelopment
