If you, like me, were waiting for Google's new agentic Antigravity IDE to create an account before using it, try signing in using Settings > Account > Sign In ... worked like a charm. Keep in mind that quota limits are low right now because so many people are jumping on.

I've been programming for over 30 years and I promise you: I would fail a white board test in an interview. Completely.

Today I will give a free year of RubyTapas to any woman in software who wants it. DM me your email. No questions asked so long as your Twitter account seems legit. Especially interested in women just getting started. Tell your mentees, your interns, your code school students.

Re: FP & TDD. More important than tests vs types is the principle of double checking. If you say something twice in independently derived ways, you're more likely to be correct than if you just say it once. Tests are a form of double checking. So are types.

How about if, instead of ditching Twitter for Mastodon, we all start blogging and subscribing to each other's Atom feeds again instead? The original distributed social network could still work pretty well if we actually start using it

(Ive never been able to say this yet) 🙋Well Actually!🙋 All of Office 365 is (almost finished) being completely rewritten in this little scripting language called #JavaScript. And Skype And Microsoft Teams And @Code And all of @MSEdgeDev Debug Protocol (instead of C++) nbd teapaw.org/jdgarciauc3m/status/10…

Tip of the day. Scripting languages as first programming language for CS bachelors are WRONG. You are not able to write an OS, a DBMS, or even an Office suite with an scripting language.
