Goal for today is to get some blog post/recap of #positconf26 out
Which means locking in writing....after I get these figures done

This is going to sound overly sentimental but I sometimes really underestimated the role community can play in motivation. I am social exhausted (whooo introvert life) from posit::conf but mentally inspired and motivation battery is replenished #positconf #positconf26

Inspired by @wesmckinney.com's keynote at #positconf26 + enjoying using tools like roborev, I was curious to see if I could get Claude to create a Go tui with minimal input from me while I watched conference talks today...it worked confusingly well!

I'll write up a recap of today (and... previous days....) later but
Next year, posit::conf(2027) will be in Seattle!

Final Keynote Session!
Round of lightning talks from folks from @posit.co #positconf #positconf26

Penultimate session time! Please know I chose attending this first talk solely on the title #positconf #positconf26

Post-lunch sessions! I will have recaps/thoughts later but I'm leaning towards Data Vis and Laptop to cluster
Thus more room roulette 😵‍💫 #positconf #positconf26

Highlight from current session from Morten Dall:
It's easier to change a gene name than to convince scientists to not use excel.

Me: *sobs in accuracy*

Hopping between two sessions today and it's the absolute worse time for my food to fall asleep as I hobble between sessions 😭 #positconf #positconf26

I'm suffering because there are so many talks that I'm interested that are overlapping 😭 I'm grateful that @posit.co records all these talks so I can at least watch them later #positconf #positconf26

While also handling AI agents and other tools. It feels a little like blind leading the blind. I don't have a good answer and still figuring it out myself. 😐 #positconf #positconf26 3/3

Primarily because he's a senior dev but junior devs are in this transition period where their path is going to be radically different. What does our path look like/what should it look like? Because we're still developing those aspects of judgement and insight #positconf #positconf26 2/

Thoughts: it was a good talk! At the end though @wesmckinney.com said "he doesn't code anymore but he's never had more to do" which honestly felt a little saddening? #positconf #positconf26 1/

Context: loops refer to Ralph loops/Agentic loops.
Basically you make your AI agent loop through a problem with a new context session each time until it "finishes".
