  • Will AI replace programmers and software engineering roles all together?

    Here is my take on, AI is coming for the engineering and programming roles: I’ve read many posting about how AI is coming for programmers/ software engineering jobs, to a degree it will. However AI itself will not be replacing junior, senior, nor principal engineering roles in the foreseeable future. The reason I say this,…

  • Yearly Life Planning: Ambition, Fulfillment, and Slowing Down

    For about six years now, I have been assessing each year where I want to be in 5–10 years. What are the goals, priorities, and so forth? What I find each time I assess and reassess is that I have high ambitions and fairly steep goals. However, I also have an aim to slow life…

  • Thoughts on learning and acting on it

    Trick to learning new things:If you are asking questions and or discussing a subject of learning, it is reinforcing and shaping what you studied previously, it also brings it to the forefront of your memory. So asking questions, and discussing a subject is a form of continued study. Once a subject is studied you have…

  • What the wealthiest people I know have in common

    The wealthiest people I personally know have a few things in common: I’m no where near the level of success that these people have achieved, however I aim to structure around these attributes to achieve similar levels of success and wealth that these people have accomplished.

  • Learning and Leadership

    If you aren’t studying and learning new things, you will remain stagnant in whatever avenue you are in. Don’t become stagnant. The reason I bought multiple leadership/management books around December wasn’t because I necessarily aim to be a manager or director some day, it was mainly to grow into a better leader in general, as…

  • My 2024 motto

    In December I normally go through this process of assessing how the year went, what could I have done better, what did I accomplish and so forth. Then I begin to plan for the next year, in this case I was planning for 2024. Not to go into much detail about my plans, I am…

  • Comfort or Grit

    As a software / support engineer, and as a small business owner. I am coming to the realization that for me (atleast) when I didn’t have much I had more grit, this grit I had when I was only able to metaphorically crawl was something incredible. This consistency and persistency I had when I was…

  • Your ripple of Influence

    You have influence, it doesn’t matter who you are, where you are from, how much money is in your account, your height or stature, you have influence. Your presence, words, and actions have influence, each drop of influence whether it be a word spoken or action, is like a drop of water in a body…

  • Consistency pays dividends

    Many times people think of a idea for a project, start a book, begin working out, or saving towards a goal, and realize wow this is going to take much more time than I thought, or maybe you are seeing little result in comparison than you originally expected to see at this state of the…

  • State of Limbo

    I find myself in a state of limbo, where I am between two states, two directions are before me. The scale is out, the pans are being filled with each perspective and truth. It is okay to be in this state, because the decision must mean much to you, it’s also okay to remain in…
