I just used Chat GPT to write code that calls the Chat GPT API in order to generate more code. I'm both impressed and appalled at myself.

My new home automation concept is a sensor that detects a door opening within 10 seconds of a toilet flushing and announces WASH YOUR HANDS in a loud voice.
I think they'd sell like gangbusters to parents

I'm feeling pretty good about this #codemash session on authentication. I've continued to tighten it up and have made some significant improvements since Momentum.
I think it's really solid.

Me, in the summer: I'm gonna submit talks I've already written to #codemash, so that I can spend December chilling out and not stressing over prep.
Me in early December: this talk is garbage, I'd better overhaul it.
Me in late December (probably): that was stupid

Shout-out to the guy at my @momentumdevcon session who asked a question that momentarily stumped me.
You, sir, are the impetus for a few new slides that will make it into my CodeMash deck. Gonna go ahead and clear up that confusion head-on.

This OpenAI drama is interesting. Looks like the board maybe tried a power play and is now in the FO stage of FA,FO?

Been studying nosql one-table design patterns as I prepare to start our first cloud-native project.
I think I get it, lay things out in NoSQL Workbench, and then try explaining it to someone and realize nope, I still don't totally get it.
Getting closer though.

It used to be that Windows was frequently unstable and rebooting fixed everything.
These days, my computer runs perfectly stable UNTIL I reboot, at which time Bluetooth, camera, and audio settings randomly change or devices stop working.
Forced nightly windows updates are great fun.
