Resistance is your duty

My friend Evan recently wrote a very well documented article on how AI isn’t inevitable, it just feels that way because it’s constantly foist upon us. He lays out the many many ways that it is, to be blunt, objectively immoral and unethical to use these tools, regardless of “how good” you think they are. In it, he notes… Except in cases where your boss forces you to use “AI” or be fired, it is entirely possible to eschew the use of these tools today.

Stand for something

I’m so continually disappointed by how many people have absolutely no standards if it means being inconvenienced or “standing out” in any way. Yea, Elon sucks, but the Tesla is just suck a good car. Or… Yea, Twitter is a Nazi party, but I get more reach there. Or… Yea, AI is using all the drinking water and causing coal plants to reopen and taking peoples jobs, but I don’t have to write those reports anymore.

So I built NoteBoard — a lightweight Notes & Calendar project focused on keeping things simple and organized.

Every project I publish is another step forward in my developer journey. 🔥

Expanding the digital garden

Over the last few weeks, I’ve made a lot of updates to my digital garden… All of the old guides have been harvested and replanted as new ones. I added a fully updated guide on Web Components that reflects how I build them today. I completely rewrote my guides around testing, with a detailed guide on Playwright, and stubbed out guides on TDD, Biome, and Typescript. I added some new guides on gardening topics.

How to detect when an element's visibility changes with JavaScript

Today, I wanted to show you how to detect when an element’s visibility changes using the JavaScript IntersectionObserver API. Let’s dig in! The Use Case I was recently working on a Web Component that calculates how much of the viewport it occupies, and automatically resizes itself to make sure it never overflows. As a standalone component, it worked fine. But in real-world use, it was nested inside Kelp’s toggle tabs component.

⚓️ New Article: AI is not a person https://gomakethings.com/articles/ai-is-not-a-person/ #WebDev #FrontEndDeveloper #100DaysOfCode #CodeNewbie
AI is not a person

You didn’t “have a conversation” with ChatGPT. It doesn’t “think you should…” It doesn’t think. It didn’t “tell you that…” It doesn’t speak. It doesn’t “feel that the best option is…” It doesn’t feel. AI is a cheap parlor trick. You provide words, and it provides words back that are most likely to occur alongside the words you provided. It’s like when a psychic says some bullshit like this, “I see a feeling of regret looming over you.

Day 132 of Year 3 🚀
Day 863 of my coding journey since Jan 1, 2024.

Today I worked on a Python solution for the Hailstone Sequence assignment as a Code in Place 6 Section Leader. It's always interesting to see how a simple set of rules can generate complex patterns and reinforce core programming concepts like loops, conditionals, and problem-solving.
