Cross-posting a short article I shared on LinkedIn last year: Using AI as Your Personal Tutor In addition to using AI for general tutoring, this year I’m interested in using vibe coding tools like Claude and Cursor to revive technical side projects I’ve l…

Many years ago I was interviewing for a management job at a growing tech company.

The scariest change in my career so far has been my transition from software engineer to manager.

The foreman called me up to the control room one morning.

Last week in Part 1 of this Mega Book Report I wrote brief reviews for books I found helpful in my career in software team management.

I love books, but am not a particularly fast reader.

Lately I've been thinking a lot about how we choose the tools we use to build software, and how important those choices are.

Dearest reader, I have neglected my duties to write about PDX Tech Talks for many months.

A few weeks back, despite my busy late-summer schedule, I finally made it to Portland’s DevOps user group: pdxdevops.

It seems like most tech meet-up enthusiasts have a favorite group.

I’ve heard a lot about the Internet of Things (IoT) lately.

When I discovered Portland has a meet-up dedicated to Selenium and test automation, I was interested.

When I heard last week that Lunch 2.0 was being hosted conveniently near my workplace in Beaverton, I was compelled to stop by and check it out.

I posted the story about how I first learned coding up on Medium.com: "The Prank that Taught Me to Code" Medium is a great site created by Twitter co-founders Ev Williams and Biz Stone.

To kick-off my monthly series on Portland tech events, here’s a recap of the inspiring “Ignite TAO v4” event I attended last Thursday with 300 of my PDX techie peers.

Last year Luc Perkins dared to blog about what many were silently thinking: “Could Portland be the best city in the country for developers right now?”

Socrates was a fan of the ancient Greek maxim carved into the walls of the Temple of Apollo: “Know Thyself.”
