Employment has always been about the value you can bring to a company. Work will likely require you to use AI in your day-to-day. Get good with that tool, but don't make it an excuse to stop learning. Learning will help your understanding of the systems you work with. It will also help your problem solving and ability to turn business problems into technical solutions. That's the true value you bring as a technologist.
I often get emails from junior engineers asking me what to do. Here's what I just wrote to one of them

RAM is the new bottleneck. Every Node.js process is fighting for memory: containers, serverless, cloud bills, k8s limits. And here's the maddening part: V8 can use half the memory with one flag, and almost nobody turns it on.

Vinix, a new OS/kernel, is perfect for low end hardware. vinix-os.org Here's Vinix running on an Intel Atom n450 netbook with a Windows XP theme. It runs well, RAM usage is small, no lags.

Vinix's ISO size has gone down from 1 GB to just 100 MB! This was achieved by removing Firefox, X11, debug info, and many other packages that can be easily installed. An yes, Vinix doesn't need X11 to run, it has its own WS. vinix-os.org blog.vinix-os.org/post/42/vi…

Why is hiring in tech such a slow and long process. We move so fast with tech in general but when it comes to hiring and interviewing it is so slow. Why is this and how can we improve it?

OSC7501 adoption updates: Kitty implements and displays in the tab title. Grok Build shipped support and Codex merged. In less than a week I think we're nearly at a place where the entire industry can drop their heuristics and get deterministic status updates.

I wanted to show how janky the AI slop is of the FilmCraft software. I wanted to set the stage for how bad it is, and how little care there has actually been in implementing this tool, and most definitely the entire Craft suite too. It's all AI slop that does not even work.
