But the real pattern is more disturbing. Our research found:
- AI-generated code contains 322% more security vulnerabilities
- 45% of all AI-generated code has exploitable flaws
- Junior developers using AI cause damage 4x faster than without it
- 70% of hiring managers trust AI output more than junior developer code
The physics of software collapse:
- Modern software is built on towers of abstractions, each one making development "easier" while adding overhead. Each layer adds only 20-30% but it compounds a handful and the overhead becomes 2-6x for the same behavior.
- Energy is not infinite
- More money goes to infrastructure to support the grow. GAFAM are spending 30% of revenue on infrastructure (historically 12.5%).
- Senior developers won't exists if one can never be junior for a start
Shifting the priorities:
- when is a calculator leaking 32GB normal?
- why do we trust AI-generated code more than junior developers?
- how many abstraction layers are actually necessary?
- what happens when we can't buy our way out anymore?
The author describes a path forward and describe each points:
- Accept that quality matters more than velocity.
- Measure actual resource usage, not features shipped.
- Make efficiency a promotion criterion.
- Stop hiding behind abstractions.
- Tech fundamental engineering principales again.
- Feature complete. Features do not need to be added.
- It is secure.
- No maintenance needed (can broke while
Implications: if build tools change, then we may not be able to modify our software. If hardware, platforms, interpreters or external APIs change, the software may stop working. That's the implication.
Examples of finished software:
- The Nintendo Gameboy
- Job Sheet Manager
- A multitude of embedded systems (DVD player, ...)
- Some small JS apps and libraries
How to make them?
- Understand the requirements. There must be a definition of done.
- Keep scope small and fixed
- Reduce dependencies
- Produce static output
- Increase quality assurance: don't fix bugs - avoid them

When AI is rightly used and coupled to real physic, it boost the science!
It seems useful for two monitors.
C'est plus une plateforme d'aide. Je remarque que tout informaticien qui se reconverti peut apporter son expérience et développer un produit en adéquation avec ses besoins.

QCAD is a free, open source application for computer aided drafting (CAD) in two dimensions (2D). With QCAD you can create technical drawings such as plans for buildings, interiors, mechanical parts or schematics and diagrams. QCAD works on Windows, macOS and Linux. The source code of QCAD is released under the GPL version 3 (GPLv3), a popular Open Source license.
Local-first allows users to enjoy all the benefits cloud apps bring (like seamless real-time collaboration, syncing, auto backups) while keeping the data ownership aspect from traditional desktop software.
An ejectable app allows users to "eject" at any time:
- get a zip of all the data
- download the binary to run on a backend sync server or locally
- able to import to the app again
and a comment from Sebsauvage:
- the data format must be open and free
The intention of this page is to collect and highlight malware written in the Rust programming language, so that malware reverse engineers have a collection of Rust samples to practice reversing on.
The cultural heritage sector needs as many small, focused tools as it can produce. It needs them in the long-term to finally reach the goal of a common infrastructure that can be employed sector-wide. It needs them in the short-term to develop the skill and the practice required to make those tools successful. We need to learn how to scope the purpose of and our expectations of any single tool so that we can be generous of, and learn from, the inevitable missteps and false starts that will occur along the way.
As of this writing, these four tools might be more SFO Museum specific than not.

Tout écrivain, Saint-Exupéry le premier, vous le dira : l’art de l’écriture, c’est de supprimer, de trancher, de raccourcir le texte pour lui donner de la puissance.
Dans mon entourage, les gens l’utilisent pour envoyer des dossiers administratifs. Alors, est-ce utile ? Non, c’est juste que ces dossiers sont complètement cons, que personne ne va les lire et qu’on utilise des outils cons pour gérer des problèmes à la con qu’on se crée soi-même.
Un outil et non une solution:
Comme le dit la linguiste Emily M. Bender, on ne demande pas aux étudiants de faire des rédactions parce que le monde a besoin de rédactions. Mais pour apprendre aux élèves à structurer leurs pensées, à être critiques. Utiliser ChatGPT c’est, selon les mots de Ted Chiang, prendre un chariot élévateur à la salle de musculation. Oui, les poids vont faire des va-et-vient, mais va-t-on se muscler pour autant ?
aphorisme: « tout le monde peut écrire, l’écrivain est celui qui ne sait pas s’empêcher d’écrire »
Bruno Leyval dessine tous les jours depuis qu’il est tout petit. Il dessine tout le temps. Il s’est transformé en machine à dessiner. Cette sensibilité de toute une vie ne pourra jamais se comparer à un algorithme générateur d’images.
À propos de l'IA qui génère du code: On cherche à optimiser la « création de logiciel » tout en oubliant la maintenance du logiciel et de l’infrastructure pour le faire tourner.
