Sharing our best, most practical LLM coding optimizations with the awesome @nickytonline !
Tools with great docs AND tons of code examples win. Should popularity factor into tool choice? Will LLMs favor React in 15 years because it has so many code examples? #LLM #ReactJS

Much how the Industrial Revolution centralized wealth, the Ai agentic coding model may centralize programming knowledge.

“If you’re not careful about your packages, you’ll end up with a code base that resembles your org chart” 👊. Such a broadly relevant insight from @eileencodes at #RailsWorld !

The @NFL hates #Canada. @DAZN_CA is unwatchable. Max 1080p, choppy (low frame rate), buffers constantly, and a 1.3/5 rated app on AndroidTV (ie Sony). It’s the only official way to stream NFL in Canada 🫠.. and they extended 10 more years.

Hey @CloudflareHelp at least 1 of your IPs has been blocked by @TalosSecurity (172.64.80.1) even though they classify the IP as "Trusted" 😠 Ya'll have a contact at Talos? Anything we can do? It's affecting a single client of ours.

A sign I'm getting old: The sense of panic I get when installing an app and I see the permissions it requires. E.g. "See and modify your personal information" 🫢

Small example, but they add up to BIG productivity boosts for me in writing code. Highly encourage you to experiment with LLMs for writing code. I'm happy to help, too, and I'll keep sharing out examples!
