Notes

I was lucky. My first engineering job, 22 years ago, encouraged great code.

Agents can build a lot of code on top of one bad decision. So do humans.

Copilot in VS Code. Oh, better IntelliSense! How does it know what I want!? Super cool! Sometimes it gets in the way, though.

I feel like the “old guy yells at cloud” meme.

OK, I’m finding my rhythm with Rust again.

My retirement plans outgrew my spreadsheets. Go helped. Rust made it better. I still like Go better.

An agent can build a project beautifully before you learn a thing.
