I spent an hour trying to setup a lighting wallet and do some things with nostr. Nevermind! I'd rather work on a messy PHP project from 2009. Something about these low-code connections and things just feels so uncomfortable.

Happy New Year! In the wake of the pandemic and amidst all the "AI" stuff - and, you know, late-stage capitalism -- I formally invite (and encourage) you to make 2025 a call to get back into real life. Start a meetup. Pair program. Build real human relationships. www.reddit.com/r/codingboot...

For developers looking to tell their story and get jobs (I can't really help with the bigger problems) - but I think that the standard developer "portfolio" isn't working. I not-so-recently chatted with @donthedeveloper.bsky.social about it - perpetual.education/stories/is-y... - hope this helps!

I had an excellent time attending and speaking at the AICAD Symposium. I only wish I'd been a little more aggressive about meeting more people earlier—it's not very often you get a group of people like that together. I wish each talk could have an hour-long discussion afterward.

Today, I've joined Bluesky. And I wanted to take a moment to think about why. Why? Really? What do I want to get out of this? What do I want to share? What would a winning outcome look like for me/us here?
