This weekend’s fun project? A baby type checker for Python. austinhenley.com/blog/babytyp...

Another semester begins at Carnegie Mellon.

I want to get back to my 2021 productivity.

New course coming this fall where we apply the latest and great AI dev tools to all aspects of development. You know it’s going to be good when there are typos. Taught by the esteemed @abegel.bsky.social and me.

How would you grade students knowing that ChatGPT can ace most assignments? austinhenley.com/blog/aihomew...

On this week's episode, @digiglean.bsky.social and I talk about measuring the speed of substring search, dictionary structure, Enum, and more. With content from: @stephengruppetta.com @mathspp.com @azhenley.bsky.social and others not on the 🦋

After a long week, I love to sit down and write C code without any AI or autocomplete. It’s very meditating.

I never expected to blog, let alone be writing this much! 100 posts done. How many more to go? austinhenley.com/blog/100.html

Some Friday morning digging into the CPython codebase to figure out the fastest way to do string processing: austinhenley.com/blog/vowels....

I went down a rabbit hole to figure out how to map coordinates to cities and states without an API. I ended up making a library and putting it on NPM. austinhenley.com/blog/coord2s...

What makes your coding agent special?

Just wrote my 100th blog post. Now to write the 99th.

Generative UIs.

I know what code you looked at last summer.

The year isn’t over yet! New blog post looking back on my projects over the last 25 years. austinhenley.com/blog/25years...

You’re still arguing about tabs vs. spaces? May I present…

Advent of Code is humbling. “Oh this puzzle only took me 10 minutes to write a really efficient solution” followed by “this took 3 hours to brute force…”

Twas the night before…

Dictionaries by example.

🎄 T-24 hours until #AdventOfCode 2024! 🎄

What’s better than coding on a Holiday evening?!

Fun read: news.radio-t.com/post/i-m-a-d...

I’m very excited to do Advent of Code for the first time.

I tried to find everyone who works in the area but I certainly missed some folks so please lmk... go.bsky.app/BYkRryU

Came across Mirror - a programming language that only allows programming by example. An fun example of integrating #AI directly into programming languages. Created by: @azhenley.bsky.social github.com/AZHenley/Mir...

Here's the start of a starter pack for people that build or think about local-first software, live/reactive and incremental programming, real-time databases, and visual programming (not just nodes and wires). I'll add more to it as I find more defectors. go.bsky.app/J3xH2sV

What if we could only code by using examples? How can we integrate AI into actual programming languages? I made a little proof of concept: austinhenley.com/blog/mirrorl...

I made a wee starter pack of some of the computing people I follow. I am sure I have forgot tons of people! go.bsky.app/MWGdzxM

On a cold, dreary weekend, I must choose between playing Nintendo or trying out the latest AI tools.

Here is my starter pack of PL folks -- please come and join the fun! go.bsky.app/6kzdn3x
