  • Here. Read this https://flowchainsensei.wordpress.com/2026/02/04/the-software-quality-and-productivity-crisis-executives-wont-address/

    Executives aren’t ignorant. They have the data. They commission the surveys. They attend the conferences where CTOs present their concerns. They know that:

    • 91% of CTOs cite technical debt as the biggest challenge
    • 75% of projects are expected to fail
    • 69% of developers lose significant time to inefficiencies
    • Only 39% of projects meet success criteria
    • The recommended 15–20% investment in technical debt management yields better long-term returns than crisis spending

    Yet they choose:

    • Not to allocate recommended budgets for technical debt management
    • Not to make quality a strategic priority despite CTOs’ and developers’ concerns
    • Not to mention these challenges in public communications to shareholders
    • To celebrate AI productivity gains whilst developers report record inefficiency
    • To focus on the next hype cycle (AI) rather than address fundamental problems

    This isn’t a failure of knowledge. It looks to me like a failure of courage and integrity. A failure of the very concept of leadership.



  • Consider for a moment the only thing we can confidently say they are reacting is things that would harm the perpetrators. They’ve redacted everybody but a victim time and again across the files they’ve released, frequently they’ll react a perp in one document only to leave it unredacted in the next despite it having identical content (namely the text messages as there is message text contents as well as screenshots). Seeing as they already fail to redact child porn and are definitely redacting things that’ll implicate people, including even Epstein I think you can make an extremely good argument they shouldn’t be redacted at all when it’s being done so plainly maliciously


  • Congratulations you’ve discovered that Mojang used to ship the game after it was obfuscated! Java has nothing to do with the fact it’s obfuscated that’s on Mojangs end, for goofy “This’ll allow us to sue people who copy our game” logic. NeoForge came out the gate with official mappings at runtime (non obfuscated using the offical names Mojang provides. Yes Mojang obfuscated the game and then gives us the names of stuff anyway…) and recently Mojang announced they are finally dropping obfuscation all together.

    Edit. To make sure this is totally clear the obfuscated names such as class_5699.method_65313 is the actual class name and method name. The jar has a class named class_5699 which Java loads and treats like any other class. Very goofy and annoying for modders since if you wanted a useful name you have to first decompile Minecraft, then change all the names, and then when you compile change all references to said names in your code back to their actual obfuscated nonsense.
