Alan Weiss and Knowing Your Worth | Landon Notes
One of my few regrets from my time as a full time founder and solo consultant: not reading Alan Weiss's books sooner.

Life goals ✅ Build a life I love. 🎡 Make it sustainable and resilient. 🤝 Help others achieve this too.
Every guide on building AI agents assumes you can code. This one doesn’t. I wrote a step-by-step guide to building autonomous AI agents with Claude Cowork. No API keys, no terminal, no code. Just plain English and a schedule. landonnotes.com/AI/Developme...

Hey, psst… 🤫 Don't tell anybody, but you've got less than a week left to submit your talk to Blue Ridge Ruby. 🤐 Seriously, mum's the word. And whatever you do, don't share this link… 😶🌫️ blueridgeruby.com/cfp/
The most chilling line in this pod from @quinnypig.com and @simonwillison.net "...a security vulnerability where you have to talk for five minutes to get the point across is one that people are gonna fall victim to" Worth 30 min of your time (on 2x speed :)). www.lastweekinaws.com/podcast/scre...

It was pretty amazing to learn about Figma's Ruby stack at the SF Ruby meetup on Tuesday 🔥 The recording is coming in a few days!
I've been working on sprucing up my website kaspth.com Go ahead and sign my guestbook 😄

Many developers struggle to find a job and think it's a skill issue. Sadly, in many cases it's a marketing issue. The good news is that this takes far less time to fix.
@cloudflare.social pages is my favorite static site hosting platform. I'm migrating my project off of github pages and aws s3 buckets. It's just so much easier to manage.
Next time someone asks you what the difference between a terminal emulator and full linux environment is... Have them try to install claude code on their terminal emulator and see how far they get.
Looking for a fractional technical AI advisor with a 100% Money back guarantee? - High latency AI responses? - RAG results not what you expect? - Agent stuck in a loop? I can help! DM or ✉️ landon.gray@hey.com
The nomenclature in AI gives me so much joy. 😂 Today I Learned: RAG + Fine-Tuning is a RAFT 🚣🏾 I'm convinced the only reasonable purpose for this is that someone has a really good sense of humor and wanted their CTO to say a bunch of funny words in a single sentence. 😉
Ruby deserves great AI resources. That’s why we created this corporate Ruby AI training. rubyaitraining.com If your Ruby organization is looking to build RAG applications or Agents we cover both!

I'm always grateful to the Ruby Weekly podcast whenever they feature my work. It's a great resource for Rubyists to stay on top of community happenings. rubyweekly.com
Here is why I consider AI agents nothing more than software. I'm talking specifically about the pieces of software that do things in a pipeline to complete a task. Let's take booking a flight to Vancouver as an example task.
Made this landing page in a few minutes with a working signup link. AI is making all my open source dreams come true.
Videos are up for presentation night Feb 2025 on our site boulder-ruby.org and Youtube! Thanks to @dnsimple.bsky.social's Anthony Eden and @thedayisntgray.bsky.social for presenting!

It’s about time there was a viable alternative to Rails in the Ruby ecosystem. It’s not healthy for a programming language to be dominated by a single project. All opinions benefit from being challenged.
Tomorrow I'll be joining the @massdriver.cloud team to discuss the limitations of GitOps, infrastructure as code, and why writing a bunch of Terraform isn't enough. There will be some live demos and a Q/A session at the end to dive into the details.
🚀 Join @kelseyhightower.com & @massdriver.cloud live this Friday at 10 AM PT! We’re diving into what’s next for Infrastructure as Code: ❓ Why GitOps isn’t the answer 🔍 Discoverability & preauthorization 💡 Self-service without red tape 📺 Watch here: bit.ly/rethinking-iac #IaC #GitOps #Cloud
We just completed our first Ruby AI training of 2025 with 14 incredibly talented Ruby engineers over 3 intense days. The best part is we've open sourced the code for anyone to check out. 🎉 github.com/thedayisntgr... (I deleted the original post as it had the wrong link.)

You obviously can't build RAG in Ruby, and definitely not in less than 100 lines of code. And certainly not without a fancy vector database. Now that that's settled, get back to work! Special thanks to @ankane.bsky.social Follow him, star his gems, contribute to his work.
