Being able to describe an idea helps you, but knowing the word for it is the real magic that makes LLM more useful.

I started making Python packages again and figured that I should work on some recordings to help explain how and why they are made.
The first video will go live this Friday and ... yeah ... small projects really can go a bit over the top 😅
I hope folks'll like it

Code should make it inevitable for you to learn.
And I just released a first set of tools that show you how you might get there.

Made another keyboard review. The paintor seems like a cool little board, but something about choc-spacing and the design of the thumb cluster make it not ideal for me.

Just sharing it in case folks have missed it, calmcode now has a small course on Marimo. It's a neat little reactive Jupyter alternative that sure is a lot of fun to dabble with.
Reactive Notebooks with Marimo
Marimo is a new notebook environment that is reactive. This means that you can see the results of your code immediately. This course will be all about exploring what that might be like.

The Nuphy Air60 HE has amazing low profile magnetic switches that are both incredible and unique.
Unfortunately, the software takes a step back in the wrong direction as far as customisability and ergonomics goes.
Not a bad board (!), but *so* many missed opportunities.

Sometimes feel you conduct your life without method or conscious decision? Great. Then maybe you can beat the bot.

It could `.collect`, use the materialised DF and then `.lazy` again, in a test/static analysis
