@SenSanders I’ve always been a Bernie fan, but he’s got the wrong take on this. Increased automation is inevitable and job displacement is a real issue we need to grapple with, but AI has so many benefits that enhance human potential. Let’s have smart engagement with AI rather than fear.

Learning Vim in 2007 is one of those investments I rarely think about now, but had paid dividends for nearly two decades. Even in the age of AI, I still think it’s worth learning.

@DavidSacks @elonmusk Stop making things up. The new Minnesotan flag is awesome. Super clean and modern design.

@MindWisdomMoney Don’t listen to these AI “influencers”. Most of them were slinging web3 crypto advice a year ago.

@TheEconomist Simple, just don’t join big tech. Tons of great tech jobs in small-medium sized companies in less expensive cities all over the country. SF is overrated.

When I started programming in the early 90s, people thought it was stupid and that I should become a doctor or a lawyer, not a weird nerd. Years later, they told me it was clear that somebody from India or the Philippines would take my job for $2/hour. When that didn't happen,

@Cley63 @SullyOmarr You’ll need more than just requests. Run pip install -r requirements.txt to install all the required Python packages. Best to do this in a virtual environment

The current AI revolution is as significant, if not more so, than the Internet revolution of the 90s. Unlike the early Internet, which was guided by a relatively small group of people, the AI revolution has the full weight of the Internet behind it. Things are going to move fast.

@seanallen_dev Totally agree. Comments are great for quickly scanning through code and determining what’s happening without deciphering the code. Also, the worse you get with “too many” comments is being slightly annoyed. Having no comments on complex code can really damper productivity.

Black holes are so cool.

Curious about black holes? If you could look at a black hole that’s pulling in material, you would see thin rings of light at the edge of the black hole’s shadow. They are actually multiple, highly distorted images of its accretion disk. Learn more: universe.nasa.gov/black-holes/an…

This is great. The irony is that you often come off as more knowledgeable and confident when you do this. The key is to follow up with concrete steps on how you will bridge this gap in knowledge.
