An LLM model change, a very small (but persistent) bug, and how I fixed it.

High time I revived my personal blog to talk about my escapades in the world of LLMs... 🧵

I really need to remember this platform exists

My preferred development workflow for 2024:

1. All devs have their own DB instance. The DBs run locally, and can be reset via static SQL scripts via a single command. The scripts are committed to source control. So, we can code without internet, demo reliably, repro bugs, and write reliable tests.

I love writing C# and I don't care who hears me say that 💜.

For the last 6 months, I've learned a TON about LLMs and have used them to solve real-world problems, including introducing RAG to clients and creating actually useful chatbots that do actually useful things.

Sometimes, people think we only teach frameworks, yet just 4 of our top 20 courses are on frameworks.

📚 Our most popular courses are on deep fundamentals—this deep knowledge pays off over your entire career!

how it started / how it ended

my only ask is that we don’t let this platform become the bluesky/twitter equivalent of “I’m voting for Harris because it’s a vote for NOT Trump” - IOW just let this platform be what it is and enjoy it

Cory’s suggestion has officially cost me $15/year for the domain
