It was such a cute night 💕
‘One possible architecture for a data system that combines several components’ diagram
I wish I had a photo of his look of absolute confusion and DISGUST with me when I asked if he wanted to “see the pictures” 😂😂
but he fell sound asleep while I read and it was a great night overall(4/4)
Designing data-intensive applications o’reilly book
Designing data-intensive applications o’reilly book stacked on top of a bunch of children’s books
🙄
At bedtime, he’s WEEPING as he’s putting his blankets back on the bed. “We forgot to read YOUR book, and that’s not fair. I really wanted to get to that”
I said “well it’s really for kids, baby.” But he INSISTED. So I read him my book for 30 min. The book:
(2/4)
Last night my 8yo & I made a cozy blanket-pillow-and-stuffed-animal fort to read books and eat snacks in. I planned to read kids’ books, but I brought my own book just in case he wanted to read separate things cuddled up together (1/4)
Yes yes yes!
you don’t have to actually look at someone’s work in order to tell them great job. save yourself time today by:
-approving PRs you haven’t reviewed
-complimenting people on work you haven’t actually looked at
-giving people credit for doing things they only say they’re “gonna get to at some point”
Sent some folks a 4 min demo video and 2 min later I am SO IRRITATED that no one has responded yet what is wrong with them (i mean me. what is wrong with me)
👏🏾👏🏾
this is EXACTLY the metaphor I was describing 🥂 you get me! ✨
I feel exactly this way
Vibe coding abstracts away everything I like lol. Even though it takes longer, I just find coding more fun than adding details to a .md file
This is the same for me. I learn a lot (and find it really interesting) when I go back and forth with AI in those kinds of ways. But here, I’m still involved in the dev loop, which keeps it fun. It’s still a puzzle, but with contextual hints.
Let me also say - I’m using AI a LOT at work and at home, and it has absolutely made work so much easier!
But AI is more of my lil assistant that takes on the tasks I DON’T enjoy so that I have more time to do the things I DO enjoy, like writing good code. 😊
It takes all of the fun out of coding for me, and the reward for the sacrifice is just shittier code, served like fast food
optimizing by moving puzzle pieces, you’re optimizing by rewording a doc or adding filler text like “ultrathink.” 😭 very unfun to me
You roll the dice and crossing your fingers hoping for few hallucinations. It’s not a puzzle, it feels more like a gamble? And ion like slot machines lol
becomes a fun puzzle that you’re never really done with; there are always optimizations you can add. It’s exciting!
Vibe coding is..talking to the computer and asking the LLM to interpret your intentions. It’s the same dumb computer executing in the same way, but now instead of
I’ve finally pinpointed what really irks me about vibe coding
A huge part of learning to code has been understanding computers and the way they execute programs. You learn that computers are actually really dumb. They do EXACTLY what you tell them to do, in the order you tell them to do it. Coding
As a former teacher, former salesperson, and current technologist and evangelist of human connection, this article embodies how I think about the tech world!
Deepppp sigh lol there’s still a LOT of educating to do
Well this is unexpected, but super interesting:
“90% of the nearly 6,000 interviewed CEOs…at firms across the US, UK, Germany, and Australia, said that AI has had no impact on productivity or employment at their business.”
