“Nobody uses Ruby these days”

A friend said that to me yesterday.
What do I tell him? 🙂

There are so many Twitter/X alternatives these days, like Mastodon, Blusky, threads, and more. Most of them are really good and have their active communities.

But most people still prefer X. Why?

@hamatti got it

Have I mentioned that we’re hiring? We’re looking for a mission-driven director of product engineering.

VS Code Copilot has gotten a lot better these days, and it's way cheaper than many other tools.

Well played, Microsoft.
Bye bye Cursor.

Exploring elasticsearch after a long time.

Trying to understand their ML model ELSER and its sparse vector search capabilities.

If you are building RAG apps, elastic can do hybrid search like keyword + semantic + vector

Feels like it's time to share this old gem again:

For most people to be happy, there has to be a person, a place or a thing involved in their happiness.

In true happiness, there are no things involved. It's a natural state.

You will abide in that state forever once you realise that.

After using AI tools to generate most of the code I’ve decided to disable all of them for while or maybe switch to ask mode.

I miss using a simple editor to write code by myself.
