Final Fantasy Rebirth felt like a chore but then I finally got to Cosmo Canyon. Happy I kept playing it. #final #fantasy #rebirth

A wise old owl lived in an oak, The more he saw the less he spoke,
The less he spoke, the more he heard,
Why aren't we all like that wise old bird?

I donโ€™t think it will matter if youโ€™re junior or senior dev in the future but if youโ€™re willing to have a symbiotic relationship with the AI going forwards where you can use it to augment your skills.

I'm at the library and I love it. You should go to the library.

As a leader, changing your mind based on new data is accepted, but as a politician, you will be called a 'flip-flopper.' In this article, I try to investigate why this is the case. open.substack.com/pub/silot/p/... #leadership #politicians #decisions #opinions

With AI coding assistants the need to understand and interpret code is outstripping the need to write code. #ai #coding

From a young age we are told to treat people the way we want to be treated. George Bernard Shaw said "Don't treat others the way you want to be treated. They might like different things than you do."

With AI coding tools I switched from writing code to doing code reviews. The irony #ai #coding #tools

If you provide AI coding tools only functional instructions the code quality is not great. But if you also provide non functional, architecture characteristics, design patterns etc the quality is actually pretty good and the code maintainable. #ai #coding #tools

I am taking a new approach with AI code tools. Instead of me reviewing the code they generate, I ask the tools to review the code I write. This way there were many better solutions suggested than what I had in mind and I also learned something new. #ai #code #tools

Really impressed by how much Amazon Q Developer has improved especially the cli version. If you know what you what and what youโ€™re doing it can really speed up development. I wouldnโ€™t recommend it to non technical people though #amazon #q #developer

SpeedCurve | Six things that slow down your site's UX (and why you have no control over them) But don't worry. Here are some solutions.

How real folks outside our tech bubble use the web:

๐Ÿ˜ฎ Some have connection speeds as low as 20 Mbps
๐Ÿ˜ฎ Most use the same modem for 5-10 years
๐Ÿ˜ฎ Avg person replaces their computer every 5.6 years
๐Ÿ˜ฎ 11% use browser versions that are up to 5 years old

Did you know the most powerful force for climate action is LOVEโ€”for our children, their future, and the world theyโ€™ll inherit?

That's right! Research shows this message moves hearts 12x more than jobs and 2x more than extreme weather.

There must be a special in hell for journalists who distort the truth just to sell sensational stories. Iโ€™m reading the Human kind book and most of evil in this world is a result of distorted truth

If we replace junior software engineers with AI coding agents how are we going to get new senior software engineers? Do we plan to make current senior software engineers immortal? And who wants to work forever? #pondering #genai #software #engineering

If you're looking for a place to do some work, the public library is like a coffeeshop where you don't need to buy anything and there's a lot more space and you can stay as long as you like and you don't get any coffee.
