The Odersky Scala course was pretty cool. It gave me a basic understanding of monoids and monads that has stuck with me. Robert Sedgewick's courses were very good. Learned a lot about graphs.

When it comes to Brooks's Law and AI, will trying to incorporate AI tools into a late project, make the project later? Probably. I'm glad I'm close to retiring. AI has been a mixed blessing for me. I don't have the desire at this stage to do all the wrangling necessary to incorporate AI tools effectively into my workflow.

I believe in one of the Planet of the Apes sequels, they used a BART construction site, because of how futuristic it looked.

I didn't know CareerBuilder still exists. They were the first job site I can recall in the late 90s. Then Monster emerged as the dominant place for job search.

I've been stuck in meetings like that. I'd just walk out saying, "you know where to find me if my input required."

When I was leaving for the navy, the last thing my mom said was, "don't get a tattoo." I never did but that was in 1981, maybe half a decade before tattoos and body piercings started becoming a mainstream thing.
