Luckily there was nothing fragile in the package. It's the first time I've had a delivery guy actually throw things over. There's a large enough gap under the gate so he could've just used that. But why do things the easy way when you can do them the destructive way?

Life coaches, job coaches, business coaches, etc... Whatever you can think of, there's someone who can coach you. But when you look them up, they have zero relevant experience to what they're supposed to be coaching you on.

Lately I've been giving trainings to developers on how to responsibly use AI. Managers always ask: "How much productivity increase will we see?"
Usually they just mean speed. But productivity = speed + quality. AI makes you faster yes, but without validation? You just ship garbage faster.

Any tech talk with two people on stage just ends in them rambling to each other and ignoring the audience.
Every duo tech talk I have attended so far would always have been better with a single person on stage.

Just switched my talk up about AI. I'm going to launch a software startup with my audience in 45 mins. They're going to provide the idea, and we're going to use AI tools to generate everything: analysis documents, market research, designs, code, etc. I anticipate shenanigans and lots of weird stuff.

I'm giving a presentation this tuesday about using AI in any part of the SDLC and I'm still looking for some use cases I might not be thinking of. So if anyone reading this has any tips for cool tools or use cases I'd love to hear them. Credit will obviously be given 👈 #ai #softwaredevelopment

I've been playing Kingdom Come Deliverance 2. Only now, after more than 10 hours of playtime, I've discovered your character gets perks that makes him stronger.
I was wondering how I was ever supposed to beat even a single bandit.
Don't be like me, read the tooltips 😅

So I actually have a bachelor's degree as a teacher, even though my entire career so far has been spent as a developer.
I'm thinking about creating a new session about what devs can learn from educational science. Like supporting self-organizing teams and how to create a learning organization.

So protein bars sounded like a good idea to get to my protein goal. But then you learn about sugar alcohols and their effects the hard way.
And that’s the story of how I temporarily got banned from my own living room.

These are the types of AI use cases I can get behind:
took a screenshot of a list of questions I needed to answer for some mind-numbing administrative task, added the source document the answers can be found in and just asked it to "please answer the questions using the provided pdf".

Passwordless logins suck. Change my view.
I'm already using a password manager with a unique password for every site. How is having to switch to my damn mailbox every time I want to login a better way of doing things?
It's terrible UX, that's what it is.

Nothing like touching a 10 year old code base once for a small fix, and subsequently becoming the expert and go-to person for any and all questions about it.

Finished up a series of sessions about GitHub Copilot at a customer today.
Cutting through all the sales bs and just showing what it’s good at and especially what it’s NOT good at, works way better for adoption at companies than just pushing AI on your development team.

Friend cooked an amazing meal yesterday. Ate so much I’m convinced I won’t be hungry for two straight days.
Anyway, happy new year to anyone reading this!

In my quest to get enough protein I just mixed two scoops of protein powder with 200g of Skyr yoghurt. Someone on Reddit apparently really likes this combination.
It turned the whole thing into a pudding-like consistency and my stomach feels like I ate a brick.
Do not recommend 🤢
