maybe he should pick The Art of Computer Programming, one of the seminal books in this genre, for which Donald Knuth (one of the all time greats) won a Turing Award for

speaking of which I wonder what Knuth thinks of Gen AI

If your job was to know when to hit the semicolon key on the keyboard, I'm sad to say that's not an employable skill anymore.

If you shape ideas into tools and art via code, it's really so much better than ever now, and I don't see that changing soon.

Anti-patterns: things to avoid - Agentic Engineering Patterns Anti-patterns: things to avoid - Agentic Engineering Patterns

I started a new chapter of my Agentic Engineering Patternw guide about anti-patterns - things NOT to do

So far I only have one: Inflicting unreviewed code on collaborators, aka dumping a thousand line PR without even making sure it works first simonwillison.net/guides/agent...

I keep stopping myself when I instinctively start giving reasoning for a technical decision to Claude like a coworker lol. Then again sometimes it actually has stopped me from footguns

PDS MOOver - Turn OFF Deactivate your old account

My did doc is all good, turns out the issue was that my old non-deactivated acc was in the same PDS as David so it was trying to find my post to reply to but was failing to do so because my post doesn't exist on there šŸ˜… (for reference this is what fixes it pdsmoover.com/turn-off)
