The most chilling line in this pod from @quinnypig.com and @simonwillison.net
"...a security vulnerability where you have to talk for five minutes to get the point across is one that people are gonna fall victim to"
Worth 30 min of your time (on 2x speed :)).

Shout it from the rooftops!
Been staying really grounded in the fact that the work I do today did not exist when I was born. Things are changing, yesterday is gone, but tomorrow is still yours. Keep your head up, pay attention, and be eager to change.

Many developers struggle to find a job and think it's a skill issue.
Sadly, in many cases it's a marketing issue.
The good news is that this takes far less time to fix.

@cloudflare.social pages is my favorite static site hosting platform.
I'm migrating my project off of github pages and aws s3 buckets.
It's just so much easier to manage.

Next time someone asks you what the difference between a terminal emulator and full linux environment is...
Have them try to install claude code on their terminal emulator and see how far they get.

The nomenclature in AI gives me so much joy. 😂
Today I Learned: RAG + Fine-Tuning is a RAFT 🚣🏾
I'm convinced the only reasonable purpose for this is that someone has a really good sense of humor and wanted their CTO to say a bunch of funny words in a single sentence. 😉

Here is why I consider AI agents nothing more than software. I'm talking specifically about the pieces of software that do things in a pipeline to complete a task. Let's take booking a flight to Vancouver as an example task.

It’s about time there was a viable alternative to Rails in the Ruby ecosystem.
It’s not healthy for a programming language to be dominated by a single project.
All opinions benefit from being challenged.

Tomorrow I'll be joining the @massdriver.cloud team to discuss the limitations of GitOps, infrastructure as code, and why writing a bunch of Terraform isn't enough.
There will be some live demos and a Q/A session at the end to dive into the details.

🚀 Join @kelseyhightower.com & @massdriver.cloud live this Friday at 10 AM PT!
We’re diving into what’s next for Infrastructure as Code:
❓ Why GitOps isn’t the answer
🔍 Discoverability & preauthorization
💡 Self-service without red tape

Rethinking IaC: Self-Service Without the Red Tape
Join us for a live discussion with Kelsey Hightower and the team at Massdriver as we explore the future of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and tackle the big questions shaping the industry.
We’ll cover:
- Why GitOps might not be the right fit for IaC.
- The challenges developers face with discoverability, preauthorization, and documentation.
- How to deliver self-service infrastructure without turning developers into operations experts.
Get ready for bold insights, an exclusive demo of Massdriver's approach, and live Q&A to answer your toughest IaC questions.

You obviously can't build RAG in Ruby, and definitely not in less than 100 lines of code. And certainly not without a fancy vector database.
Now that that's settled, get back to work!
