Everything in this video is a neural network:

@ACarpenDigital Could be worse, imagine sitting there on midsummer 😂🤷‍♂️

[Leigh Robinson @Leigh_R_Dev]

@nav07 @fesshole That’s my home Town!

And very true 😂🤦‍♂️.

Currently learning DOM manipulation with JavaScript. It’s uses for reusable code quickly becomes apparent. I can see now where the idea for React and it’s components came from.

@Sam_in_Cam It would cost our family of two adults and two kids £60.50 and that’s with our membership discount. A nice idea but we won’t be paying that to go see some lights.

[Leigh Robinson @Leigh_R_Dev]

@smelltheshite @Sam_in_Cam It’ll be sold out though.

[Leigh Robinson @Leigh_R_Dev]

@Nicolauze @fesshole Yep

@Rawlings1Jed @fesshole Most websites have plugins to do various stuff. Those plugins generally have access to everything but are written by other developers. We have no idea what they do with any data they harvest.

ChatGPT is speaking up—literally.
OpenAI has given it a voice and, yes, it sounds eerily like a real human.

Listen to more of our convo in my @WSJ column:

@ACarpenDigital Saw communist stickers up about town the other day. They’d been scrapped off mostly. I didn’t know there were also people out on the street. Wonder if they get much interest.

@fesshole Without accessing a database?

Just spent a few hours trying to figure out why my burger menu disappeared when clicked. HTML was fine, JavaScript was fine.

I was hoping not to need help. Figured out to comment out code to isolate the problem.

Turns out I had conflicting classes. 😂🤷‍♂️.

[Leigh Robinson @Leigh_R_Dev]

@niamh_codes @Ritika_kaurr That’s because you’re not BS’ing.

Also, lots of people claim to have learned all that and can’t land a job because their coding is junk.

[Leigh Robinson @Leigh_R_Dev]

Interesting that Guardian has blocked OpenAI from scraping its data. I guess the Guardian wants to build its own AI model on a subscription basis.

I see other sites are doing it too.

@tabby_tha Blue is too overpowering for my tastes. I’d bump up the colours on the interior design pics and tone down the blue. It’s beautiful though. I’m learning Frontend and design is really challenging.

Wow. It's tough out there hunting for Web Developer Jobs!

@m_ojidoh Looks good. Defo not bringing my kids!

@ACarpenDigital I got caught out on Friday afternoon with the road closure. Was not fun. Hopefully scaffolding can be put up quick and the road reopened.
