Everyone assumes the best AI coding workflow is: let AI generate V1, then maintain it by hand.

I'm finding the opposite works better. Write the first version yourself — pour your taste and instincts into it. Then let AI handle the features, cleanup, and maintenance.

A hand-written codebase is a style guide written in code. AI reads it and extends it faithfully. Without that foundation, everything regresses toward the mean.

The human provides the soul. The AI provides the scale.

PyCon US has started! So far I am very disappointed in the first keynote -- it's just a product pitch and the speaker isn't that engaging. Sorry.

You are hiring frontend engineer and you see this.

What do you do?

[Happy Hacking Keyboard US @HHKB_US]

With 12 months ahead of us, there’s plenty of time to learn a new programming language or build a new project. Break it down into smaller steps for better success — and don’t forget to bring an HHKB along on your journey!

Dear #pycon presenters. Here are my accessibility requests for next year. 1. No colorized code on black backgrounds. Blue or purple or gray is really hard to read. 2. Use large text please. I cannot read your regular terminal font. PLEASE.

I went on a vacation to deal with a minor burnout and now I have to work 2x to catch up. Brilliant 😀

Neat to see on Hacker News... in position one, "Cisco Acquires Splunk", then in position three "Show HN: My Single-File Python Script I Used to Replace Splunk in My Startup"

... and that single-file Python script solution turns out to use @datasetteproj! https://t.co/yOCsK5Ajr6

I like my coffee as strong as Java’s typing and as bitter as a principal software engineer.

This popular talk of mine on learning @rustlang (one that also happens to be personally important to me!) was recently made private; is there anyone at @CrowdStrike that can help make it public again? (Or get me a copy so I can make it available?) https://t.co/s7KYj1GrXh

My favorite app to get pricing/plan inspiration is @flightradar24

3 plans:
- Basic: free
- Silver: $9.99/y
- Gold: $34.99/y

And if you tap a feature you want to use but not on plan yet it shows a 🔐 and popup to upgrade

800,000 subs @ $9.99 to $34.99 = $8M to $28M revenue/y

My takeaway from @glyph' talk: give all your passwords to a CLI tool you installed from PyPI to help you memorize them: 😉
