New blog post: I wanted to see what an AI podcast co-host would be like. This was my first time trying it out using LiveKit and OpenAI. I had some technical difficulties with using the playground, so the real chat starts at around 4:50. <iframe...

New blog post: I just spent a lot of credits adding livestreaming to this site using Mux. I might write a blog post about how I would approach this differently with what I know now.

creating community is hard bc not everyone wants to use a discord but community is found in so many other places

-responding to things on social media
-live stream comments
-in person events
-sharing of content with your thoughts

I just realized that the posts coming from pipe dream had incorrect links. I had to fix my RSS feed and it made a bunch of new posts here.

"Learn to Code" Backfires Spectacularly as Comp-Sci Majors Suddenly Have Sky-High Unemployment It looks like the "learn to code" push is backfiring spectacularly for those who majored in computer science in college.

Learn to Code. Still.

Do it with the minimum student loan debt possible.

* Yes, it is extremely hard to get an entry level CompSci job these days
* Yes, there is oversupply of CompSci grads
* Yes, companies love layoffs these days. Job security is not what it was
* Yes, the anti-DEI bros are here

New blog post: The site now has RSS feeds. I created a pipedream workflow that should post automatically to Bluesky when there is a new post.

This is a duplicate post because I'm setting up pipedream to post automatically using my site's rss feed.
