Proud to announce TechConf.Directory, a directory of tech conferences around the globe.
I've found it quite difficult to find conferences. That is true no more!
I've made all the data fully open and available via a fully queryable API as well.

You don’t say.
It kind of bugs me that there's no such thing as comprehensive, free family MDM. I'd love for there to be an easier way for me to remotely support at least the devices in the Apple ecosystem that are scattered throughout my family.
🎉 Relive the magic!

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

I can’t tell you the amount of contempt real coders have for Musk’s stolen valor at pretending to be technical. His years (decades?) of pseudo-code revealing that he doesn’t actually know how software works are so offensive to genuinely talented developers that they’ve always hated him.
Hard same.

Welcome back. Seriously.
Everything got so stupid so quickly.
Listen to your children read. Read to your children. Read alongside your children. Take them to libraries. Talk about what reading means to you & what it can unlock.
Tell them it doesn’t matter if it’s comics, magazines or books as long as they’re engaged with the written word. #WorldBookDay
Diesel fumes?

I want to remind everyone that your local library is both physical AND digital.
You hate streaming everything because the price is ridiculous? Library.
You hate ads because they're every 3 mins or less? Library.
You want to reduce your digital footprint? Library.
You want sourced info? Library.
Reasonable men can disagree. I have a whole system optimized for this.
Hard same.

“You’ll be visited by three spirits.”
The three spirits:
“Fuck around and find out” is now becoming “please feel free to test that assumption at your earliest convenience. Per my recommendation, take note of said result”
God this is depressing
If the government ain’t worried about it… it’s probably the governments doing 🤷🏻♀️
