Public Service Announcement

TL;DR

Strong opinions, mild roasting, and absolutely no responsibility accepted. You've been warned.

This is a public service announcement, brought to you in part by Sam Carr.


The views and opinions expressed on this blog are solely those of Sam Carr, who has been left unsupervised with coffee and Claude. My employer would like to make it abundantly clear they didn’t sign off on any of this nonsense, and frankly, they’re probably regretting giving me a domain name already.

Here’s the thing — what you’ll find here includes strong opinions about the future of coding and AI, mild roasting of bad practices, and the occasional reality check. If you’re looking for corporate-approved thought leadership, you’ve wandered into the wrong corner of the internet. Pull up a chair anyway.

Advice issued herein should not be attempted in production, near production, or anywhere with line-of-sight to production.

If at any point you feel personally attacked, please raise a ticket. It will be triaged into the abyss.


What I’m Not Responsible For

Let me get the crayons out for this one:

  • Your decision to paste secrets into a chatbot because “it’s fine, it’s behind a VPN.” Computer says no.
  • Shipping prompt-engineered AI slop disguised as ‘Features.’ That’s between you and your tech debt.
  • Any sudden urge to “move fast and break governance.” I’ve merely described the chaos — I didn’t tell you to embrace it.

Translation: if you read something here and immediately do something regrettable, that’s a you problem.


Terms of Engagement

By continuing to scroll, you consent to being entertained, informed, and lightly roasted. No refunds. No appeals process.

No AI or interns were harmed in the making of this blog.

The AI wrote a first draft; I refactored it out of spite. It’s what we do.


Found something useful? Something wrong? Something that made you unreasonably angry? I’d love to hear about it.
