I decided to try out DeepSeek r1 8b locally and it didn't get off to a good start..

When I'm interviewing a candidate, their GitHub is the MOST important thing for me.
Consistency is great to see in an activity graph. But also have at least one project you're actively working on.
Bonus for interacting with an established project/community!

As a previous tech recruiter:
No one cares about your Github commits during the hiring process

My current Ghostty config.
Have only had an hour or so total with it so far, but promising!

uvx, by @astral_sh, is so nice in situations like these.
Wanted to check the current connection speed on my homelab system, so logged into cockpit on my phone and brought up the terminal.
From there, just use uvx to (very) quickly install and run the speed test.

Listen... I have some plans. And anyway, these projects are relaxing!
But fr, thick hoodie, dark room, good music, new features. That's peak vacation

If you’re a baker who’s three years into your career: quit now. there is not a single job in baking anymore. it’s over. this field won’t exist in 1.5 years.

Tried o1 to see if it could fix the builds for a project I adopted.
As you can see, it did not do well.

Or.. Have proper testing in place so you're sure that nothing significant will break when you do push to production.

Absolutely this.
The speed in which you can develop in Python is one of its greatest strengths. Combine that with the best third-party libraries and you're set.
If something needs speed, drop that down into Rust or even C.

I actually might lose credibility for this one, but I don't think startups should be using Rust, Zig, etc. unless the technical advantages are critical or even inherent to the product.
Like, if Python, JS, etc. are even options, you should probably be using Python or JS!

I checked in earlier today when I saw @ThePrimeagen was trying out Devin.
This was the exact moment I came into the stream and immediately knew he was having a great time!

Wow! Look at what we're planned to get in Python 3.14!!

We are very exited to share with you PEP 768 🐍, which proposes a safe external debugger interface to Python. We think this is a really exciting change that will allow debuggers to safely attach to running Python processes without stopping them. 🐛🔨

Here's a small section from my latest video on #Python's os module.
Unfortunately, I had to cut it short due to video length constraints, but will post the full video link in a reply to this.
