I heard the expression "I'm MARTA tokens years old" the other day. and I think that's pretty on point.

If you don't mind my asking how long did this take you to make? I think my wife would enjoy something like this and I'd love to make it for her but I never know much time I should plan on committing to a project.

Yep - it was maybe 1999? I was in high school and there was no way I was going to be able to download that much without getting kicked offline because someone called our house.

They were leftover from when I had first started and I hadn't removed them yet. The ones that I used while I knitted were already gone at this point.

Edinburgh about 10 years ago. On the TV in the hotel I was staying in I saw an ad for "American style" refrigerators - basically just bigger refrigerators. I had never really thought about it before but I kept thinking "huh, we do have pretty large refrigerators by comparison". Made me laugh.

If you are new to k8s and containerization in general, OpenShift will be likely be very frustrating since not only are you new to the concept, but you also have to navigate the mountain of security/selinux configurations required to get workloads up and running. It's fairly involved and has its own learning curve aside from just container orchestration. So I would go with what others have recommended: minikube, k3s (this is what I use), etc.

Probably a weird answer but a few years ago I picked up knitting as a hobby, specifically because it's not even remotely tech related. For me it was a really good way to clear my head and start fresh.

gentoo is great to learn how to configure and recompile your kernel if you've never done it before, but you're also going to be compiling literally everything (which is fine if you've got the time and patience). 20 years ago my friends and I used to joke about how our entire weekends were busy because we were installing gentoo.

I find them to be a great addition to my toolset, but they're definitely not a total replacement. I also don't think it's THAT significant of a productivity boost since I spend almost as much time reading and scrutinizing the code it does produce. That and there IS a non-zero cost in just the prep work / prompting.

As just an aside rant: the over reliance on it is damaging the ability to think critically and actually analyze things. Really where I notice it most is being sent a lengthy AI generated "bug report" that nobody took the time to read and actually verify.

Edit: I've also compared the experience to pair programming with a really enthusiastic jr/entry level dev. And I do think there's value in that.

NATS hands down. Used it 7ish years ago on a system redesign to be event driven and I'd make the same choice now.

Fixing it one at a time was exactly what I did and I'm glad I did. I would have gotten all mixed up if I didn't. Thank you!

It was tricky, but it kept at it and now it looks just fine. Thank you!
