The most important role of a software engineer in the age of AI coding tools is becoming:

Be a GREAT code reviewer. Spot mistakes in the generated code. Reject it / fix it to make it work correctly.

Here is a thread of my top 10 games from 2024!
I know it’s late, but please forgive me, at the end of last year I literally packed up my entire life and moved halfway around the world.

Anyway, here they are starting with #10:

Ruberduck debugging with someone else, even if that person doesn’t have all the context or knowledge, is one of the best hacks to do as a developer.

Don’t underestimate it, really.

One thing many people are not aware of is that Apple has an entire building full of engineers who are working to push the boundaries of physics in seeing how far an AirPods case can fling the individual earbuds in different directions whenever you drop the case.

I still think is pretty incredible that we have a magic piece of glass to discuss and post something to the web anytime, anywhere, right in our pocket.

Bluesky’s captured tech twitter because it appeals to our innate desire to buy a new domain name.

so fuckin nice to simply post and not consider even for a moment the algorithmic ramifications of sharing something cool that you like via a hyperlink

Nintendo building their own music app instead of releasing their music on Spotify or Apple Music is crazy.

we’ve had many waves of people checking in on the site and bouncing. it always feels a little sad to see folks i know bounce but i know how sticky the twitter network effects are.

“build it and they will come” is not enough, but still — we aim to make the app better for every next wave, bit by bit

Hopefully Bluesky doesn’t punish my profile for posting a bunch of ideas at the end of a busy day 🤐

Might as well try.

A change that I really hated from the formerly site known as Twitter that I’m glad Bluesky didn’t copy: making every profile inaccessible if you don’t log in by default.

If the poster doesn’t make their profile explicitly private, why bother having to make the user log in to read their posts?

Finance applications are making me regret (a little, or maybe a lot) changing phones.

How do people that change phones often deal with this? Feels like is not worth it until your phone is in the border of collapse.

Time and time again my body tells me that I should sleep more, but then I don’t listen.

Why am I like this?
