I wonder how many companies are freezing hiring or just slowing down the process due to AI.
It's hard to find real data, especially knowing that the market hasn't been great lately.

The other day, I heard from my trainer, who specializes in football, some shocking facts about the number of injuries that are caused by not wearing the right boots.

So I just built this informative website, which helps you find a much better boots that suits your needs.

"To be passive is to let others decide for you. To be aggressive is to decide for others. To be assertive is to decide for yourself. And to trust that there is enough, that you are enough."

Can't remember the number of times I have been told that I was weak for exposing my vulnerabilities.

Over time, I’ve learned to set aside my ego, allowing others to reveal my weaknesses to me. This has enabled me to grow as both a human being and a professional.

Just issued a new post.
I’ve never seen vulnerability as a weakness, but "Dare to Lead" by Brené Brown made me realize how much power it holds.

Siendo incluso un programador full stack, lo más importante sigue siendo tener mentalidad de crear productos que solucionen problemas reales.

Slowly trying to get back. Last dance before getting to 37? Maybe, but lower back isn't helping.

Companies are getting faster at executing and putting features out there, but the tech debt is pilling up.

I wonder if with the fast execution rate we have now is actually easier to building something from scratch rather than taking care of an endless tech debt.

🧪 I’ve been testing some of the latest AI coding tools to see what they can actually do beyond the hype.

Built a couple of small apps and shared my thoughts in this post.

Spoiler: great for prototyping, not quite ready to replace developers.

Here’s what I learned 👇

AI vibe coding productivity and limits | TechAsHuman
AI agents and vibe coding are everywhere lately. It's catchy to say developers are going to be replaced, and while that makes for a good headline, I wanted to test it myself before concluding.

Every day, way more knowledge is created than we could possibly consume.

Therefore, if we define ignorance as the ratio of our knowledge over all knowledge, we can mathematically prove that we become more ignorant by the day, no matter what we do.

I’ll let that sink in for a bit.

One of the best features of Bluesky is that fewer people are saying that development life is over due to AI. Maybe shitposting doesn't pay off here. Which is very much appreciated!
