for a long time, i've been thinking about what the difference between good and bad explanations is - now i took some time to write down some thoughts: hellmayr.com/blog/2025-09-0…
there is a difference between wanting the capability to do something, and enjoying the activity itself
“AC this, wash dryer that, US woohoo, EU boohoo” - Why are we eating this brand-warfare from the outside about us up? Europe has the strongest precision manufacturing in the world, we have leading teams in AI, CV, robotics. Europe is a leader in Automation and Frontier Tech!…
all my life i wondered what the trick to a good beef broth was. turns out it was following the canonical recipe 🤔
who you should take advice from hellmayr.com/blog/2025-08-3…
i recently started writing blog posts again (i used to, a long time ago, but all of that is gone now), and the most fascinating moment is when during proof-reading, you realize it applies to your life in a different way than you intended while writing it
tech soirée vienna today was a really really good event with @mitsuhiko @andreasklinger @badlogicgames and many more 🚀 hope to see more of these popping up soon
how to use ai for studying without bullshitting yourself hellmayr.com/blog/2025-08-2…
You give developers a week of freedom and they…make a check engine light open alert using Sentry Logs 🤓 Hackweek is going well!!
i recently learned about this adage, and it changed how i think: projects fail by default, unless someone makes sure they don't hellmayr.com/blog/2025-08-1…
trust is what sets great managers apart: hellmayr.com/blog/2025-08-1…
the empathy to know what users need the taste to create something useful the skill to implement the voice to talk about it
if you want to go fast, clarity matters hellmayr.com/blog/2025-08-1…
blog post by yours truly - we should be careful with etiquette around generative tools: we still own what we pass on to others hellmayr.com/blog/2025-08-1…
switching from gpt-5 to sonnet 4 feels like giving a problem to a staff engineer after the intern didn't manage to solve it
Very satisfying to me how AIs punish unnecessarily abstract codebases. Oh Claude isn’t working well for you because it struggles to decipher your baroque metaprogramming hellcode? How unfortunate
