Day 2 at #CodeStock2026 — inspired.

Highlights:
• AI + regional impact (AI Tennessee)
• Reticulum network (now I want to build something with it)
• Neural networks… explained with humor
• Developer experience as a force multiplier

Leaving with a lot of ideas to explore.

Day 1 at #CodeStock2026 — energized.

Huge thanks to the sponsors & organizers for such a well-run event.

Learned a ton about:
AI as a tool (not a crutch), starting roles well, systems thinking, and practical AI at home.

Reminder to myself:
Depth > speed.

The Role of Cognitive, Emotional, and Compassionate Empathy in Product Design This journey will take an honest look at the daily struggles of being an accessibility professional in an industry that often views accessibility as an afterthought. But it's not all doom and gloom. There is hope. Drawing upon personal experiences, Homer will explore three types of empathy and how they build upon each other to form a foundation for building more inclusive applications.

I'm giving 2 talks at #CodeStock2026
