/me Googles ... 1.99 meters ... 6" 6' for my tiny American brain ... I can only guess what it means but I suppose it's safe to like this post at least.

The Artemis II crew just gave us an 80's sitcom intro and it's absolutely hilarious! Freeze frames, cheesy grins, theme song energy. These are the four humans who are about to around the Moon. NASA said fun and we are here for it!

As you know, if you read my posts, I go on A LOT about music. Mostly my own. But I also encourage you - whatever you think about your own musical knowledge and ability - to pick up an instrument sometime and learn to play it. It doesn't matter how bad you are, even if you can only play one tune.

Mason: Dad, there's no real magic in the world, right?
Dad: What do you mean?
Mason: You know, like elves and stuff. People just made that up.
Dad: Oh, I don't know. I mean, what makes you think that elves are any more magical than something like a whale? Yoy know what I mean? What if I told you a story about how underneath the ocean, there was this giant sea mammal that used sonar and sang songs and it was so big that its heart was the size of a car and you could crawl through the arteries? I mean, you'd think that was pretty magical, right?

Saw someone say the world is a boring place because there are no elves or dragons, so I'm legally obliged to share this:

AI Didn't Break the Senior Engineer Pipeline. It Showed That One Never Existed. Most organizations never had a model for developing engineers. They had an environment that produced growth by accident. AI just made the luck run out.

If coding is your favorite part of software engineering, keep coding. AI doesn't stop you. But if coding was the only part you were good at, that's a different conversation. The job was always bigger than the code. #bransoncognac blog.bryanl.dev/posts/ai-sen...
