Like, what am I doing on the same stage as Eric Meyer?
I started making videos to share some stuff that I thought was fun or cool or whatever. I didn't know what I was doing... and I just kept doing that, and after enough years, maybe I've just tricked everyone into thinking I know what I'm doing.
I know a lot of people associate me with CSS because I started a YouTube channel about it, and somehow that became a thing...
...and logically speaking, I think I know what I'm doing...
...but imposter syndrome is a thing, and it's not making me feel great at the moment.

Our own minds can definitely be our worst enemies at times.
If you're in/around Amsterdam but can't make it to CSS Day, I also plan to be at the @css.cafe event that takes place the day after if you want to get a chance to hang out a bit 😊
I don't agree with the title, but I WHOLEHEARTEDLY agree with the core message.
Expertise is very important for producing and shipping high quality production software.
If you use an LLM at work, you MUST put in the reps to acquire and keep up your expertise somehow.
Every time I see someone I like talk about AI the first thing I hear in my head is Farming while Beige saying "What is it now?", and I worry a bit.
Happy to say there is nothing in this video I disagree with, it is pretty much my take on AI in coding.
I think this is a great take from Kevin on AI coding tools. Deskilling is a huge problem with these tools, and the issue with junior engineers is one I anticipated. In fact I anticipated pretty much all of the big problems I’ve heard of.
