Honestly kudos to Apple for keeping their DEI promises well into 2025 and employing a 100% blind design team

This book destroyed a generation of programmers. I was one of them. Took a very long time to unlearn this crap.

I used to think Design Patterns weren't worth learning. Personally, I've seen people use a complicated design pattern to solve a simple problem. But Uncle Bob says Design Patterns is a masterpiece. I'm a simple person, so I'll give it a read. Are you with me?

What’s up with all the AI zoomers rediscovering audio frequency modems recently? Just wait until they find out which company made the best modems ever.

I sincerely do not understand how developers tolerate the Python tooling. From installing Python, to installing dependencies, nothing works out of the box. How can the Python community be satisfied with the status quo? Is it Stockholm syndrome?
