Yeah, I’ve been looking at the Framework laptops. They seem really nice.

I’ve heard good things about Framework laptops. Actually looking at their site as I speak! Do you run Linux on it?

Yeah, bonkers isn’t it 😄 Jimmy messaged me the other day asking if I still had the original but I don’t 😞

Sounds reasonable, I did wonder if that was the case. Must definitely be a weight of the shoulders for you all then.

Definitely feels like AI code generation will amplify this problem, unless engineers will be rigorous in breaking the prompt cycle to examine the code to look for opportunity to tidy things up.

Pleased for you, must be a big relief for you and your family. Didn’t realise there was no preference for siblings, is there a particular reason(ie, funding, class sizes)?

This was my understanding too, but I’m not expert on the matter so interested to hear what you find.

That was my thought too. Prime is a content creator who has a different motive to learning new languages. Probably not wise to "switch languages because Prime said it's cool" unless you really want to learn a new language.

Interested to know what you make of this book? I was deliberating between Staff Engineer book or The Staff Engineer's Path and decided on the later in the end. Plan to get the Staff Engineer book next though.

This was long before ChatGPT existed and offered a suggestions in the IDE to convert it to Shouldly assertion, but ChatGPT could probably do the job these days :D

Seems like a good opportunity, I've not touched Shouldy in a while but we were always looking for help.
On a side note I actually recall toying with some code (I can't remember what it was called in .NET now) for converting FluentAssertions into Shouldy ones at one point.

I've not touched .NET in over 3 years so I'm totally out of the loop on all of this. @stu.dev and Joseph Musser have taken it over since then so forwarding your thoughts and prayers to them :D

Well done! Congrats!

Such a cool read. I remember how impressed I was with how well Quake 3 played online on the Dreamcast over a 33k modem.

Thanks for the share, lots of people in the list I follow on Twitter so glad to see they’re on here too!

Great list, thanks for saving us the trouble of having to manually find everyone again!
