    RE: https://chaos.social/@InvenTree/117350430791706330 I know parts of the community are (very) critical of LLMs and so am I. Nevertheless the various vibe “coded” community alternatives ranged from deranged and inefficient to outright dangerous. Some even allowing direct write access and SQL injections. This optional implementation is less resource intense, follows tested auth patterns and should limit the damage to unkowing users. This does not mean AI in core or that I or other team member...

    Daily #corporate bs: I just got a mandatory “news” mailing that offers the great option to pay hundreds of euros for company-branded skis in a signal color. Surely nobody pays for the privilege to be a walking advertisement?

    just blogged: the #inventree ecosystem - a first peak at a large and onging data collection effort to better understand the current InvenTree ecosystem. The goal is to have better data on how we can evolve the plugin interface and what foes wrong when building plugins. https://mjmair.com/blog/2026/the-inventree-ecosystem-plugins.html At some point this data will also be made avaiable, still looking into the best wy to identify which plugins are intended to be pblic and safe enough to be &amp;q...

    I have not written any code or reviewed any substantial code since July 8th. These past 9 days are probably the longest strech that has happended since I had a neurologically challenging accident in 2019 that stopped me from using any electronic devices. To be honest: I do not miss it; not even a bit. This somewhat is scary as it calls to question how I have been spending my time the last few years. Maybe it is time for a changes. AI already seems to lower the value of being able to code well.

    @andrewnez@mastodon.social while I personally find these funny; could you please put a satire tag/ banner / callout at the top of the page? Your blogs RSS feed is on my recommended reading list for Juniors and I now have gotten 2 questions if I meant to link it as people think this is a satire project. I really appreciate your work on making the package management ecosystem better.

    @andrewnez@mastodon.social the sugggestion regarding fork visibility is interesting. I try to add full upstream issue links to my forks. This seems to add timeline events in the upstream issue but it somewhat hard to discover in longer running issues.
