Monki Gras 2026 “Prepping Craft”

When safety and normality are slipping away, how do we make our code, our communities, and our lives truly resilient?

I've written up a rough overview of my #monkigras talk on developer learning and AI assisted coding from last week here, will likely be doing it + similar talks again later in the year

Do your fingers remember how to code?

Discovering developer skills worth learning when AI can write code.

I've been relatively offline for the past few days and only just realised that I missed #monkigras and I have serious FOMO.
