@iambrendonjohn Yes I did listen on Spotify. I think it's the author narrating it, perhaps he just sounds a bit robotic 😄

@_September87_ Hell yeah! Love the new tune!

Today is a working at home by the fire kind of day 🌧🌧🌧

"Exercise extreme caution before even thinking about microservices" I think is good advise. While they can be useful and necessary under some circumstances, they also introduce significant complexity. https://t.co/JFmr9LV8E9

"Now the real-world results of all this theory are finally in, and it's clear that in practice, microservices pose perhaps the biggest siren song for needlessly complicating your system." https://t.co/wWskTHStHs

The development of AI is as fundamental as the creation of the microprocessor, the personal computer, the Internet, and the mobile phone. It will change the way people work, learn, travel, get health care, and communicate with each other. https://t.co/uuaOQyxBTl

I've just posted my first update since joining Sourcegraph six months ago, "Cheating is All You Need". In it I introduce AI-backed coding assistants, which are the biggest change I've seen in 35 years as an engineer. Enjoy! https://t.co/5Q4ismDLya

@tenfef Such an amazing song and video! 🙌

[Tim Ross @timrossinfo]

@JakCharlton Well, it’s my hope at least that AI does not lead to a soulless existence devoid of human creativity 🙂

[Tim Ross @timrossinfo]

Drum machines did not replace drummers, but rather opened new avenues for creative expression. Similarly, AI has the potential to enhance human creativity rather than replace it.

This is a fascinating insight into what things were like inside Twitter after Elon Musk took over: https://t.co/EbTtgq95i2

I made a thing over the break. We all know we shouldn’t share secrets over @SlackHQ etc (I’ve had API tokens in my inbox from a DM before), but sharing via a password manager can be tricky with clients etc.
Any feedback is welcome!

I think they’re on the right path here. Education at its roots needs to focus on critical thinking, creativity, compassion, self education and tools to navigate life. Rote skills like arithmetic, essay writing, spelling … will become as useful as the abacus.

This is an interesting article on the use of AI tools like #ChatGPT in educational assessments. https://t.co/DOFA6zlkPU "[ChatGPT] is like the advent of the calculator - a game changer"

It’s still early days, but I feel knowledge workers are in for a massive productivity boost by using AI tools.

[Tim Ross @timrossinfo]

ChatGPT is quickly becoming an essential part of my development workflow. It’s like having an insanely knowledgeable pairing partner always on hand to work through problems with.
