I really try to make functions pure, one at a time. Avid reader and @pwlporto organizer.

Writing code was never the bottleneck in software engineering. LLMs made it cheaper to write, not easier to understand, review, or maintain. That’s still the bottleneck. Let’s not pretend it isn’t.

I was supposed to arrive in Lisbon at 10… I'm arriving 2 hours later. I love trains, but Portugal is a fucking joke.

Being able to pick up the same book right where I left it with either my iPhone or iPad is such a great experience.

Just finished reading this absolute banger. I would love to give a five-star review, but the last biased push for Bitcoin triggered me off. Absolutely recommend though.

Had so much work and reading planned for my train trip, but I ended up sleeping the whole time.

People can't bootstrap an app these days? I'm not sure if I should buy this story.
From a CTO at a startup: "We interview devs by giving them a task to build an app on the spot, from scratch (2x BE endpoints, some frontend.) They can use AI, ofc - and we dig into why they did this or that. What is surprising: 14/15 devs from Meta failed this screening."

Good books are great. Almost everything I know comes from a book, but those books are irrelevant. Don't waste your time (and money) on bad books, there are plenty of good books to read. In fact invest into learning fundamentals rather than specifics.

So, if someone *only* makes $75k, they can't have opinions, or their views aren't valid; is that what you're gatekeeping?

Going to spend the entire week in Lisbon, so many events happened in the weeks before, and now there's nothing there.

It takes 6 hours for my Toronto fellas to fly into Lisbon, and it takes 3 hours for my train ride into Lisbon, crazy.

@schteppe If I trust you, I’m more than ok with that, and that's precisely how trust unblocks most of the control checkpoints we have.

I believe we can write good-quality code even in the sloppiest programming language. If your codebase is pure slop, I blame you and whoever wrote it before blaming the programming language.

You know who wrote it when you see something like "comprehensive test coverage".

You should learn a functional programming language not only because they are a few decades ahead of mainstream languages, but also because they eventually influence all of them.

Garbage collection is definitely an old unc. Also, Lisp mentioned.
