• —Get the basics right. Everything else is harder when you don't understand them.
• —Language debates aren't worth the time. Use what you like, but give other things a try.
• —Keep trying new tools. You don't have to stick with all of them.
• —I'd rather learn how to use AI well than ignore it and hope it goes away.
• —Keep learning, preferably about things you actually enjoy.
• —The whole 1% better every day thing feels like a lot. Even 0.1% adds up to about 44% over a year. Small steps count too.
• —Privacy is a human right, even if you don't think you need it.
• —Sometimes you have to push past limits and do things people don't expect of you.
• —Look after yourself. Your mental health matters more than any of this.

I bounce between hobbies a lot. One day it's the 3D printer, the next I'm tinkering with my homelab or playing around with AI. I also like travelling with my camera.
