I’ve added ‘quietly’ to the list of words you just can’t use anymore, because AI does. For example: ‘AI has been quietly making communication stale and robotic’ 🙃 Okay, what did I miss?

I just cancelled my ChatGPT plus subscription, and got Claude instead. Everywhere I look, developers say Claude Code is unmatched when it comes to writing code, and while it might not generate images or videos, it's 25% cheaper 😲 Is GPT being left behind? 🤔

ChatGPT pricing plans are displayed, featuring Free, Go, Plus, and Pro options with varying features and costs monthlySubscription plans for a service named Claude, detailing Free, Pro, and Max tiers with features and pricing.

Most developers use AI, but we all use it differently. How are you using it? Like how does it fit into your workflow? I’ve used Cursor up until now, but am about to move to Claude Code, and to be honest still haven’t really got into MCP so I need to catch up 😅

If you describe 'a developer' in an AI image prompt... it makes me. Nice to know I'm quite literally, statistically, the most common and average person on earth. My mum always said I wasn't special 🙃

Apple gave us Apple Intelligence (that nobody asked for) and liquid glass (that nobody likes) before they added a way to label or customise cards in Apple Pay. Oh so you have two accounts with the same bank and want them both in wallet? Okay cool good luck 🙃

Experimenting with making some 'premium' features only available to one-time sponsors of ProfileMe. Thought this would be an interesting way to monetise the project, while giving something cool back to supporters. To test it... I've sponsored myself 🥳

European friends… Where are you from, and what’s your favourite European accent? I’m British, and obbbbbviously think that Italian and French sound nice…but Norwegian is low key so satisfying to listen to, it doesn’t get enough credit 😍

GitHub Pages doesn't get enough love. One-click to deploy from your repo, branching, free storage, Jekyll and custom domains. I use Vercel for larger projects, but for small ones Pages is great. Where do you deploy? 🤔
