Explains one perspective on the difference between being a technical leader and a people leader. I agree with most of this and am sharing it as a way of remembering this as a reference. Shared with me by a buddy (c0c0).
I always remember that Advent of Code is happening about halfway through December, and feel like it's not worth trying at that point. So, here's your reminder:
Starts at midnight, EST. About four hours from when this was posted.
25 days of programming puzzles, ranging from very easy to pretty hard. One puzzle a day until Christmas. It's a good opportunity to learn a new language, or polish your skills in one you already know. I'll be doing the puzzles in #rustlang this year.

Hello fediverse - in my professional life, I've refocused on work with the helping professions. I'm calling it "Helping the Helpers." My aim is to center work helping people like social workers, nurses, and teachers realize ambitious projects that take them outside their comfort zones.
If you know anyone you think could benefit from what I'm doing, could you pass my site on to them? I'm eager to get to know folks even if they may not be paying clients, because these professions are made of networks, and plenty of my big projects have started in unlikely places. These are my people, and if they're your people too, please let me know!
So this is cool: On the ground at DEF CON, EFF represented security researcher Dennis Giese who received a cease-and-desist letter from digital lock maker Digilock about a presentation that Giese was going to give the next day. EFF attorney and current Special Counsel to EFF, Kurt Opsahl got the cease-and-desist lifted so that Giese could give his talk.
Immense respect for Crowdstrike owning it https://youtu.be/6lLSdqUHNWM?si=EumLSE82MYJiH0k2 #defcon
