Can you tell the theme for my upcoming talk at the GitHub user group meetup tonight in Tel Aviv? Does the font give it away? 🛸👽 #starwars
Some things I wish would stay in the States. We really don’t need another American fast food chain like Cinnabon in Tel Aviv. #fastfood #telaviv #thanksnothanks
That was quick! Thank you friends. Maybe next time I should be more ambitious and a bit less modest in goal setting? 😅
Ben Greenberg@hummusonrails.com · 2y agoFriends, it's a modest goal, but I'd love to get to 100 subscribers on my #YouTube channel before the new year. I am just *4* subscribers away from that goal. Can you help me get there? www.youtube.com/@HummusOnRails

When HBO Max sends me an email that says "for fans of Beetlejuice Beetlejuice 🪲" (tbh not such a fan, but I did wach it) and then recommends... Batman Returns 🦇 What does that tell you about their content similarity search algorithm?

Sent in completed draft of my new book on learning vector search for devs with Node.js to @pragprog.com last week. 🎉 A lot more steps to do until it's published, but really excited about completing this milestone step! #Books #Publishing #TechBooks #Milestone
Your AI tool is not a person. It’s best to market it is as it is: a tool.
Israeli fortune cookies read like a verse from Tanakh: ‘The end of an act begins with thought, and much thought follows…’ Fortune cookie or the Bible? You decide. 🤣 #food #fortunecookie #israel
You know you watch too many developer videos on YouTube when the ads shown to you include @sentry.io content from @whitep4nth3r.com 😂
Building RAG apps is too much fun! Do you agree with the response on which planet in the #StarWars universe would be most familiar to someone from Earth? The AI context is being enhanced with a vector search of Star Wars data on @couchbase.bsky.social. Are you buying a place on Alderaan today?
Benefit #1 of remote working: Being able to step out for a quick lunch with your spouse during the workday. (Also, not fighting traffic; not being interrupted constantly; using the office chair that’s right for you, etc., etc. 😅)
Now on stage of CityJS Athens @hummusonrails.com talking about vector searches and embedded models. I love that man's energy 😄
Anuradha is delivering a fantastic hands-on talk on web accessibility at @cityjsconf.bsky.social. Learning quite a lot from her dynamic presentation. 👏 #a11y #accessibility #cityjs #javascript
The next time you’re in Greece and you think hey that language sounds really unique, guess what? You’re right! It’s the *only* member of the Hellenic branch of Indo-European languages. That’s it, just Greek. Nothing else like it. 🇬🇷 #linguistics #nerdyfacts #greece
Past two days I've received a couple unsolicited SDR outbound emails offering me free AirPods for booking a 20-min consultation with them. How many people follow up on that? Is that worth the ROI? 🤔
