Higly recommended. Definitely for the children. The Mathematics concepts are something my logic brain admittedly cannot grok, but can relate to. This was the mental equivalent to turning my tech off and going into the wilderness (physically this weekend at #Spartan, AROO!)

John Willis screaming from the mountaintop on the importance of #AI explainability and evaluation

Its like security, no one cares until an event has happened and suddenly everyone cares

Stop releasing AI apps whose outputs are not well understood or explainable

I enjoyed reading Build. @tfadell.bsky.social has a writing style that reminds me of a cross between Mark Manson and Simon Sinek. Excellent practical advice with great stories. Thanks again to @serverlessadvocate.bsky.social for the reco!

Its difficult sometimes to embrace what “big tech” enables with policies that I am diametrically opposed to, such as this bullshit discuss.systems/@dev/1141618...

Been wanting to use my coding muscles, found this at my local very large bookstore. Want to deep dive into graphs for a long time. Well written! Another #NoStarchPress winner.

Heres the repo if you want to follow along!

👈🏽 avid #retrogamer. Finally got to #LimitedRun in RTP. What a treat! Landed this prize. Last one, low(ish) #, no clue it was so well regarded. Beautiful.

Met a fellow fan of J #shmups, shared many I hadnt heard of. Hustling last cpl weeks, glad I chose spontaneity over the #AWS Meetup.

I just can’t get behind the constant advertising shoved in front of me without my consent when I am using enterprise tools

Todays latest offender - Okta

And it has me wondering what possible justification there could be for tool usage to be an advertising channel on work resources

🌱 Imposter Syndrome should be embraced - it means you’re levelling up and growing. Try to switch your mindset. If you don’t have it, you are probably sitting quite comfortably.

Ready for 2025! I took #AWS AIF-C01 Certified AI Practitoner, passed. Wasnt expecting “Early Adopter” in the badge title.

Theres room for improving test questions. Real world experience helps a lot, the Skillbuilder exam prep spends too much time on AWS services and not enough on concepts.
