how are so many of y’all 2-steps away from endorsing Woke Eugenics on any given day

This is a thread of five things I'm doing for senior and staff designers in the next few months. All are online. Some are free, some are paid.
💯💯 people just create conspiracy theories out of thin air instead of taking a moment to learn something SMH
vibe coding aside, this is not what's happening? generally Claude is used when *writing* code not when serving requests. I hate this shit but also it does behoove you to know how it works.
What Rod Serling said about "The Big Tall Wish" It was rare back then, to have a mostly Black cast especially on a major network.
