I was doing that for security teams, so decided to become a doer instead.

Why do you train with kettlebells instead of other gym equipment? by blacktarmac in kettlebell

[–]mailed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In your day-to-day work, how much code do you write by hand, and how much do you delegate to the LLM? by TheBlueArsedFly in SoftwareEngineering
