3 massive upgrades for anyone building software: 1. Start using Development Containers. They work across IDEs, making your life 10x easier, especially if you work with a team or want to run your projects on multiple computers. You can configure a Dev Container with everything you need, install libraries, set environment variables, and even install plugins you want to use on your IDE. Anyone using this container will have access to the same exact environment. When you delete the container, everything that came with it disappears. 2. Start using "uv" to manage your Python environments. This is probably the biggest upgrade I made during 2024. Forget about poetry, conda, venv, and anything else. UV is the best, and it's not even close. UV is faster, easier to use, and has great documentation. 3. Start using "just" to create recipes to run project-specific commands. This easily saves me 1+ hour daily of remembering specific commands or sequences. For example, I'm constantly running an MLflow server like this: $ uv run -- mlflow server --host 127.0.0.1 --port 5000 Instead, I can create a recipe using "just" and run it like this: $ just mlflow Faster, easier to remember, and prevents mistakes. In summary: 1. Dev containers 2. uv 3. just

The best Machine Learning Engineering cohort you'll ever take starts tomorrow. This will take you 3 levels up from wherever you are. If you think AI will replace engineers by the end of this year, don't join. Keep playing games or whatever else you do for fun. If you want to build the skills that will put you on top of the world for the next few decades, join here: ml.school.

If you are a builder looking to solve real-world problems using AI/ML, join my cohort: • Open-source tech stack • Build once, deploy anywhere • Live classes • Starts on May 5 • Lifetime access Join using the link in my profile. If you have questions, leave them below.

I teach a live, interactive Machine Learning Engineering program to help you build production-ready systems from the ground up. The next cohort starts on Monday. • 20+ hours of live classes • Hands-on practice with an end-to-end system implementation • Open-source tools • Build once, deploy anywhere Students from Google, AWS, Netflix, and other top companies. More than 1,500 graduates. Best engineering program online.
