One thing that might come out of vibe coding is the need for QA and quality engineers might increase. Who tests the vibes when vibes think there's nothing wrong.

Life doesn't always go as planned, but l've learned to accept, love, and adapt. It's not about resisting what is-it's about moving with it, finding the beauty in the shift, and trusting that even in the hardest moments, there can be soft landings.

To every woman finding her way, adapting, growing, and showing up as she is—I see you. Life isn’t always easy, but we keep moving, loving, and embracing the journey. Strength isn’t just in the struggle; it’s in the softness, the grace, and the way we land.

We shield ourselves from discomfort, mistaking it for safety—yet in doing so, we forfeit growth. Growth demands courage, not comfort.

No, the US Gov hasn’t canceled accessibility. Recent exec orders ended federal DEIA programs, but ADA & disability laws still stand. State & intl laws also require compliance. Enforcement may shift, but accessibility remains a legal & ethical must. www.a11yquest.com/blog/2025-01...

We need to talk about recent executive orders and memorandums regarding accessibility.

More people than ever talk about mental health, yet many misapply labels from social media instead of seeking growth.
Discomfort, pain, and harm aren’t the same. Just because something hurts doesn’t mean it’s harming you. Growth needs friction.
