pca.st/episode/0764... @scott.hanselman.com I'm with you on your view that prompting is not programming. Its a level too abstracted. Low-level programming, high-level programming and then there's probably management. I.e. instructing someone or something to program for you.

Street Fighter was amazing and fun, 90s pulp. For me, it was Tuesday.

@scott.hanselman.com kind of inspired by Tiny Tool Town I have been working on a project to ship a Tray app for Windows every day in October! #tray-tober Should I add all of them to Tiny Tool Town? https://tray-land.github.io/tray-tober.github.io/

Let’s goooooooo! I worked the Polycade booth today as a volunteer and brought Nolan over to visit Interim Computer Museum! Two of my great joys together - classic arcades and computers. And two class acts, Stephen Jones and legend Nolan Bushnell. Shout out to Polycade for making this meetup happen!

There's a new Adult Swim show on HBO from the Rick and Morty folks called "President Curtis" and it's fantastic. That is all. Shout out to Keith David.

Holy crap lanterns is a good show It’s almost like we are getting the density of two seasons in one. Amazing

100%. Mortal Shell 2 is VERY Elden Ringish. The bosses are not as good, and the minions could use some variation, but the weapons and "shells" (characters) are top notch and the MAP is glorious.

I am loving #MortalShell2

Coyote vs. ACME is a delight and worth seeing.

www.hanselminutes.com/1054/robots-... @scott.hanselman.com Excellent episode this week, not only was there a fun discussion about how scifi like Star Trek and Marvel inspires scientists and engineers, but the discussion featured some fascinating stories

Here's a fun switch up. I got invited to come on a podcast except the host was a sophomore in high school. I had such fun chatting with he and his friend that I did a crossover episode so you can check out the full video on my YouTube. www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKzc...

Thank you @scott.hanselman.com and Ed Rogers of Bristol Braille Technology for the superb episode of Hanselminutes hanselminutes.com/1048/braille.... Really interesting conversation gents and I appreciate how easy it was to follow even as a complete newcomer. 🙌

There's so many fascinating generation gaps, but the one that always hits me is that these kids will sit on the porch and call or text rather than knock on the door or press the doorbell

“If you lead engineers and believe culture is ‘soft,’ this book will disabuse you of that notion quickly. Psychological safety, learning, and collaboration aren’t perks, they are infrastructure. Ignore them and your systems will fail, slowly or catastrophically.” - @scott.hanselman.com

Shout out to @serdarcevher.com, PedalScape.com is now translated into 5 languages pedalscape.com and is set up for more (PRs welcome). Beltscape.com as well

I have a $30 stationary bike that I got at Goodwill and I have an old Android tablet stuck to it, but I don't have a Peloton membership. Nor do I have the interest to ride 80 miles to the beach. So I made PedalScape.com It's a local PWA, no backend at all, no tracking, just 4k bike rides.

All that money, but you still can't sit with us

Chicago folks: This month, the Chicago Clooud Meetup Group will host a special meeting on Tuesday, June 23! Microsoft Vice President @scott.hanselman.com presents "AI for Normal People Who Aren't Totally Bought In"! Space is limited, so reserve your spot today at www.meetup.com/the-chicago-...

We really gotta stop normalizing the whole full on speakerphone FaceTime call in a restaurant thing. Put the phone to your ear sir

iOS is redoing Screen Time just in time for my kids to graduate from high school

Here's an easter egg in the new Lego Batman that I think all of you will REALLY appreciate. It's so good, I had to make a video.

Heading back to Portland after a hard but energizing week at BUILD. What a lovely team.

Trying the @github.com Copilot App on my real workflow youtu.be/PUCYm32ZBaU?...

Hey, @scott.hanselman.com built TinyToolTown.com for tracking these little vibe-coded apps. 👌 I submitted a feature request that it should have an RSS feed as well! Feel free to chime in: github.com/shanselman/T...

The world is in chaos and fascism on the rise, but I have a tiny remote control for my e-reader and it makes me very happy.

Saw #MortalKombat2 and it was exactly what it needed to be. At no point did I believe Karl Urban could do the splits or event a deep squat but suspend disbelief and enjoy the ride!

Did I just put Oh My Posh in GitHub Copilot CLI? Yes. Am I making a video to show how you can do it too? Also yes. 💕 Shoutout to @scott.hanselman.com for his excellent gist: gist.github.com/shanselman/9...

git worktrees y'all. So good. This is workTrunk.dev

Stumbled over this little gem from @scott.hanselman.com where you can include the new GitHub Copilot CLI's statusline in your Oh My Posh command prompt. Very useful for the nerds in the room. gist.github.com/shanselman/9...

Scott Hanselmann has been a role model for my entire career. As a tech geek and as an all round good person, he sets the benchmark. Today at NDC Conferences Toronto he shared a poignant retrospective and message of positivity for the future with AI.

(I enjoyed having an excuse to quote @scott.hanselman.com and @markrussinovich.bsky.social's ACM op-ed on how efficiency gains from AI-assisted coding are not uniform; it's a good read dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/...)

Scott called me up last week to tell me about this, and I kinda went giddy with excitement. It is SO COOL that this stuff is being published.
