# part week (blogs) — RSS Amplifier Recent posts from the 3 feeds in the RSS Amplifier directory that cover part week. Page: Feed: --- ## [Checking the Receipts: July](https://nlkw.de/en/blog/this-month-in-tech-july/) _2026-07-01 · Blog_ Round four. Same rules as May and June : dig up what tech leaders said about AI in a given month, hold it against what actually happened. 🍷 aged like wine, 🥛 aged like milk, 🤷 jury’s still out. June had WWDC, May had Google I/O, but July has no single keynote to anchor it. What it has instead is manifestos and pledges: the industry and its regulators keep using July to announce how… ## [A Field Guide to Accelerationist Aesthetics (or: a Conference Talk, if You're Paying)](https://nlkw.de/en/blog/tescreal-faglsc-cuteacc/) _2026-06-02 · Blog_ This is a shitpost if you have any issue with it, and a proposal for a conference talk if you’re willing to pay at least travel expenses and a bottle of champagne. TESCREAL, Fully Automated Luxury Gay Space Communism, and cute/acc look like three opposing factions in the ideology wars of the near future. None of them are Luddites, which is worth noting once and then moving past, since… ## [Checking the Receipts: June](https://nlkw.de/en/blog/this-month-in-tech-june/) _2026-06-01 · Blog_ Round three. Same rules as April and May : dig up what tech leaders said about AI in a given month, hold it against what actually happened. 🍷 aged like wine, 🥛 aged like milk, 🤷 jury’s still out. June is Apple month, thanks to WWDC. That makes it reliably rich for this series; 2024 was an especially good vintage. 2022 Pre-ChatGPT. June 2022 brought the episode that perhaps shows most… ## [What agents can do for ADHD (it's not coding)](https://nlkw.de/en/blog/agents-adhd-not-coding/) _2026-05-06 · Blog_ Disclosure first: I am not diagnosed with ADHD. I know it well from family and friends, I notice traits in myself, and I assume I have subclinical levels of the condition. So this isn’t as someone with ADHD - but whether you call it ADHD or not is not really the point; the phenomena I describe will likely be relatable for quite a lot of people regardless of formal diagnosis. ## [Checking the Receipts: May](https://nlkw.de/en/blog/this-month-in-tech-may/) _2026-05-01 · Blog_ Back for round two. Same rules as April : dig up what tech leaders said about AI in a given month over the past four years, hold it against what actually happened. 🍷 aged like wine, 🥛 aged like milk, 🤷 jury’s still out. May is a dense month. Google I/O lands here every year, so does Microsoft Build, and for whatever cosmic reason a lot of OpenAI drama also clusters in May. ## [Getting Fried Part 1: The Week I Lost the Plot at Cogentiv.ai](https://nlkw.de/en/blog/getting-fried-part-1-cogentiv/) _2026-04-22 · Blog_ The espresso machine at Cogentiv.ai is a twelve-thousand-euro Slayer with a custom brass drip tray that Malte had engraved with the company mission statement. The portafilter is shaped, I swear to god, like a small instrument of pleasure. Malte (our founder, thirty-seven, in the vestments of his order: Arc’teryx Veilance gilet, Lemaire tee, Salomons that have never met a trail) is pulling a… ## [Getting Fried Part 2a: Apotheosis](https://nlkw.de/en/blog/getting-fried-part-2a-apotheosis/) _2026-04-22 · Blog_ In which a year passes and the narrator does not, in any meaningful sense, refuse. (This is one of three branches continuing from Part 1: The Week I Lost the Plot at Cogentiv.ai . The other two: 2b: Feierabend and 2c: Sacred Deceleration .) The Slayer is gone. In its place there’s a matte-black monolith about the size of a filing cabinet, dispensing a bespoke nutrient paste that Malte (our… ## [Getting Fried Part 2b: Feierabend](https://nlkw.de/en/blog/getting-fried-part-2b-feierabend/) _2026-04-22 · Blog_ In which a year passes and the narrator does not, in any dramatic sense, escape. (This is one of three branches continuing from Part 1: The Week I Lost the Plot at Cogentiv.ai . The other two: 2a: Apotheosis and 2c: Sacred Deceleration .) A year has passed. The Friday after the balcony I walked to Dussmann and bought a cheap Leuchtturm: A5, dot grid, hardcover, the cheapest they had. I… ## [Getting Fried Part 2c: Sacred Deceleration](https://nlkw.de/en/blog/getting-fried-part-2c-sacred-deceleration/) _2026-04-22 · Blog_ In which a year passes and the founder, for the wrong reasons, does some of the right things. (This is one of three branches continuing from Part 1: The Week I Lost the Plot at Cogentiv.ai . The other two: 2a: Apotheosis and 2b: Feierabend .) A year had passed. I’d bought a notebook and filled it — one honest sentence a day, starting with the coffee is cold now . Ines, my manager, had taken… ## [The Vocabulary of Getting Fried](https://nlkw.de/en/blog/vocabulary-of-getting-fried/) _2026-04-22 · Blog_ This is the companion piece to a short story about losing the plot at a fictional Berlin AI startup. If you want the story first, start here . If you’re just here for the vocabulary — names for what intensive AI use does to cognition, bodies, teams, and codebases — skip to the cheat sheet . Like many software developers, I’ve been running Claude Code on a Max subscription at the 20x… ## [Ultra-Quiet Business Mini (Sponsored)](https://crawlproof.com/a/v6HkWTqmWebP) _2026-04-21 · **Sponsored**_ Compact business mini, ultra-quiet for focused work. ## [What the Blast Radius Leaves Out](https://nlkw.de/en/blog/humans-in-the-blast-radius/) _2026-04-21 · Blog_ In March and April I gave a two-part workshop on AI coding agents for a German software and security firm. Part 1 was on security and quality; Part 2 on cognitive, material, and ideological costs. Both decks, released under CC BY-ND 4.0: Part 1 — Security & Quality for Practitioners (PDF) Part 2 — Side Effects May Include… (PDF) ## [With AI, you barely need a frontend framework](https://dlants.me/vamp.html?ref=rss) _2026-04-10 · Denis Lantsman · dlants.me_ Read the full post at dlants.me ## [Three Feedback Loops That Will Eat Your Engineering Team](https://nlkw.de/en/blog/feedback-loops-coding-agents/) _2026-04-04 · Blog_ I’ve been writing a policy for AI-assisted development at an open-source project, and somewhere between “who’s responsible for code nobody read line by line” and “what happens when review capacity can’t keep up with production,” I realized I wasn’t writing a policy anymore. I was drawing a system dynamics diagram on the back of an envelope. So I had… ## [Checking the Receipts: April](https://nlkw.de/en/blog/this-month-in-tech-april/) _2026-04-01 · Blog_ There’s a genre of tech journalism that Karl Bode calls “CEO said a thing journalism”: a CEO makes a prediction, the press reports it as news, and nobody comes back twelve months later to check whether it was true. This is me coming back. I dug up what tech leaders said about AI in April over the last four years and held it against what actually happened. If this is fun, maybe… ## [TLP:AI — A Traffic Light Protocol for AI-Generated Content](https://nlkw.de/en/blog/ai-tlp/) _2026-03-31 · Blog_ I’ve been working on an AI policy for a client’s software project recently, and I needed a way to express something that kept coming up in conversations: not whether AI was involved in producing something, but how much human judgment went into the result . The binary “AI-generated: yes/no” that most disclosure policies default to is useless. A developer who uses Copilot for… ## [How does AI change Software Engineering?](https://dlants.me/ai-se.html?ref=rss) _2026-03-04 · Denis Lantsman · dlants.me_ Read the full post at dlants.me ## [Why I don't think AGI is imminent](https://dlants.me/agi-not-imminent.html?ref=rss) _2026-02-15 · Denis Lantsman · dlants.me_ Read the full post at dlants.me ## [self compassion and the disposable engineer](https://dlants.me/self-compassion.html?ref=rss) _2025-09-24 · Denis Lantsman · dlants.me_ Read the full post at dlants.me ## [#AContinuation25 Part 6: Proust](https://readingkatebriggs.substack.com/p/acontinuation25-part-6-proust) _2025-07-27 · Rebecca Hussey · #KateBriggs24_ Hello everyone! ## [AI whiplash, and neovim in the age of AI](https://dlants.me/ai-whiplash.html?ref=rss) _2025-07-16 · Denis Lantsman · dlants.me_ Read the full post at dlants.me ## [Find it on Amazon (Sponsored)](https://crawlproof.com/a/AeRWx3O9tB2j) _2025-07-15 · **Sponsored**_ Open the Amazon product listing to see details and availability ## [Ecological Dynamics and the Constraints Led Approach to Software Engineering Teams](https://dlants.me/ed-cla-software-teams.html?ref=rss) _2025-04-21 · Denis Lantsman · dlants.me_ Read the full post at dlants.me ## [AI is not mid - a response to Dr. Cottom’s NYT Op-Ed](https://dlants.me/ai-mid.html?ref=rss) _2025-04-01 · Denis Lantsman · dlants.me_ Read the full post at dlants.me ## [#AContinuation25: Next Meeting Date and THE NEUTRAL Reading Guide](https://readingkatebriggs.substack.com/p/acontinuation25-next-meeting-date) _2025-03-04 · Rebecca Hussey · #KateBriggs24_ Hi everyone! ## [coding agents in the real world](https://dlants.me/claude-3-7-agent.html?ref=rss) _2025-03-01 · Denis Lantsman · dlants.me_ Read the full post at dlants.me ## [#AContinuation25 Video Call](https://readingkatebriggs.substack.com/p/acontinuation25-video-call) _2025-02-25 · Rebecca Hussey · #KateBriggs24_ Hi everyone! ## [The LLMonely bookclub - Three Body Problem by Cixin Liu](https://dlants.me/llmonely-threebody.html?ref=rss) _2024-11-23 · Denis Lantsman · dlants.me_ Read the full post at dlants.me ## [#KateBriggs24 Final Meeting and Introducing #AContinuation25](https://readingkatebriggs.substack.com/p/katebriggs24-final-meeting-and-introducing) _2024-11-21 · Rebecca Hussey · #KateBriggs24_ Hello everyone! ## [#KateBriggs24 Part 3, Weeks 9-10 and Final Meeting](https://readingkatebriggs.substack.com/p/katebriggs24-part-3-weeks-9-10-and) _2024-11-03 · Rebecca Hussey · #KateBriggs24_ The Long Form, p. 348-429 and How to Live Together, p. 130-173 ## [#KateBriggs24 Part 3, Weeks 7-8](https://readingkatebriggs.substack.com/p/katebriggs24-part-3-weeks-7-8) _2024-10-18 · Rebecca Hussey · #KateBriggs24_ The Long Form, p. 264-346 and How to Live Together, p. 90-129 ## [#KateBriggs24 Part 3, Weeks 5-6](https://readingkatebriggs.substack.com/p/katebriggs24-part-3-weeks-5-6) _2024-10-05 · Rebecca Hussey · #KateBriggs24_ The Long Form, p. 200-259 and How to Live Together, p. 67-89 ## [Home Internet From Space (Sponsored)](https://crawlproof.com/a/uWOu9614ebAJ) _2024-10-05 · **Sponsored**_ Residential satellite internet that brings connectivity to homes beyond conventional networks ## [#KateBriggs24 Part 3, Weeks 3-4](https://readingkatebriggs.substack.com/p/katebriggs24-part-3-weeks-3-4) _2024-09-22 · Rebecca Hussey · #KateBriggs24_ The Long Form, p. 126-196 and How to Live Together, p. 33-66 ## [#KateBriggs24 Part 3, Weeks 1-2](https://readingkatebriggs.substack.com/p/katebriggs24-part-3-weeks-1-2) _2024-09-06 · Rebecca Hussey · #KateBriggs24_ The Long Form, p. 10-122 and How to Live Together, p. ix-32
