My newly minted sovereign server (sovereign in the sense that it answers to nobody, including me) had a horrible start in life. The PSU was faulty. In the picture, you can see my old 850W ATX PSU powering my new server (PSU on Marktplaats/Craigslist now). @Alternate is still trying to find out if it was… Read More »
Three weeks after my first round of catch-up, two things have given out: my power supply and my patience with the word “agentic”. First the easy part. I swapped the two Qwen 3.6 27b instances for Qwen3.8 27B, running the Unsloth Dynamic V3.0 GGUFs (UD-Q4_K_XL) with q8_0 KV cache quantisation on both Ollama instances, at… Read More »
Apparently, the lingo has shifted; having code generated by LLM’s is no longer to be called Vibe-coding, but Agentic Engineering. Being left behind in the past months by great token slayers agentic engineers like @PatrikHusfloen is something my ego can’t take for too long. Wrongs have to be righted. Thus, starting yesterday, I have committed… Read More »
TL;DR Book a Meeting | Blue Sky Consulting It was time to re-jump on the Vibe coding bandwagon again. I fell off somewhere two years ago, when I was between jobs. In that period, AI was relatively new, and I created an API that took a humble CSV file from the HomeWizard app and calculated… Read More »
About a year ago there was a post about the demise of StackOverflow, the portal used by many techies for solving common (and not so common) issues that arise with the use of technology. n00bs and experts all mixed together with the common goal of solving issues resulting from gaps in (unread) documentation. The platform… Read More »
As it feels like everybody has jumped on the local AI bandwagon by now, I felt a bit left behind. So it was time to dip my toes in the water and avoid my year-end admin chores. Of which the most mind-numbing is figuring out the tax mess, which in the Netherlands is almost entirely… Read More »
Recently, I came across a post claiming that agile projects were nearly 1.5 times more successful. This headline seemed too good to be true, and indeed it was. The claim was based on a survey posted on X and some LinkedIn groups. While the survey is well-documented and certainly worth a read, there was no… Read More »
Are we doing Agile well? Answering this question seems to be top of mind. However, the solutions proposed are not always that Agile from the outset. Recently I received a piece of thought ware on this subject that was less then Agile in my humble opinion. It wanted to answer the question ‘Are we doing… Read More »

One of the most exhilarating activities during the MBA was the in-class simulations. The direct head-to-head challenges either between teams or individuals are very exciting, and enjoyable if you are an adrenaline junkie. During the RSM EMBA, we only had three instances where we were graded on these simulation sessions. The first was the Markstrat… Read More »
