@claudeai Copy error on the marketing site for Cowork: this video shows "SWAT Analysis", but it should be "SWOT Analysis".

@Slate Stroads are "the futon of transportation...just as a futon is neither a particularly good bed nor a particularly good couch, a stroad is neither a particularly good road or a particularly good street."

[Martin Fowler @martinfowler]

Excellent post from @mipsytipsy. Not just about the limits of GenAI, but also the importance of teams and the importance of mixing juniors and seniors.

[Awesome Inc @awesomeinclex]

The Developer demand continues to outweigh supply. 📈

In a recent interview with TechCrunch, CEO of GitHub talks about a shortage of coders in the western world.

From updating legacy code to incorporating AI into tech stacks, the need for devs isn't going anywhere!

Yesterday I was walking to @athenianlex to enjoy their #lexingtonburgerweek special and ran into one of our tech training grads. A former handyman, he's now a Data Technician for @grayconstructio. He told me:
"Bootcamp changed my life. I tell everyone I know to check it out."

@gitpod I'm looking to switch @awesomeinclex's coding bootcamp students over from CodeAnywhere to Gitpod. Sent a couple of sales form requests through your website, but haven't heard back. Could someone help me to set up an education team account?

@meetsidekick You're my favorite browser! But have been having significant performance issues in the past week. Getting worried that I haven't seen any tweets since January. Are you all still alive? #hopingidonthavetousechromeagain

[UK Solar Car Team @UKSolarCar]

We did it!! We officially placed FIRST at #FSGP2021! Lots of work went into this car and race but it has certainly paid off! We couldn't be happier with Gato Del Sol VI, it's drivers, and the amazing team behind it. Next up is #ASC2021! Wish us luck!!

@Kentuckyweather My friends @ApaxSoftware here in Lex could hook you up with a site that can handle the traffic next time!

@keithmcmunn @plibin @sequoia @mmhmmapp Yep, @mmhmmapp is worth it. Great stuff. Starting to think beyond skeuomorphism (electronic meetings), and into "what does digital-first look like?"

Gave blood today with @KYBloodCenter, and the experience was as safe, clean, quick, and easy as usual. And Little Debbie snacks are in stock🍫.

Please help if you can, and if you ever needed a reason to share the gift of life with a total stranger, now's a good time.

[KY Blood Center @KYBloodCenter]

There is a CRITICAL need for blood. Only a one day supply of blood is on the shelves. Please consider donating soon. Kentucky patients need you.

All donations are by appointment only. Make an appointment by calling 800-775-2522 or visiting https://t.co/MyKChmmUjI
