August 23rd, 2024
So, here we are, starting all over again, in one way or another. A bit smarter than we were before, a lot more skills than we had before, and a much, much greater understanding of what we want out of the future, which is now clearly sitting in the code.
I'm excited. Are you?
Let's go!
More posts coming soon!
