It is evident that AI tools are here to stay, at least in programming and dev environments. It is nonetheless very frustrating to find fully AI generated slop websites at the top of search engines instead of trustworthy expert written articles. Although I’m not an expert in anything (except for wire ECM), the visible content of this website is fully user written, although the code behind is might not be.

Large parts of the back-end of this website, and the algorithms used in the articles are written using Claude Code as an AI Agent, both interactive as an au-pair programmer, as (almost) fully independent (such as in the cartographic projections tool tool). Unless explicitly stated, AI is not used, was never used, nor will it ever be used to generate main content (i.e. information presented to the user) for this website. The content of this website is hence guaranteed to be free of (AI-)slop.

The main models that were used in this website and its articles are Claude Sonnet (> 4.5) and Claude Opus (> 4.5) for more difficult projects. Claude Haiku is used only to generate commit messages from git diff --staged, git log --oneline 15, git status --short, as it has trouble tackling wider scopes.
