@system76 I installed Ubuntu 20.04 on my new System76 laptop, enabled full-disk encryption, and it locked me out of the login window after a reboot.

@bushido_hk AI is a tool. Tools substitute muscles that you previously had to use. If you don't exercise those muscles, then yes, generative AI can over time atrophy your coding muscles. My general advice is: don't depend on AI to write your code; you should always be in the driver's seat.

@iamsaquibdev If you have the time and motivation: side projects. It's rare to ALWAYS be passionate with your daily work. Have a healthy set of side projects you _do_ care about. But don't set your expectations to always finish them — use them to stimulate your mind and also build your skills.

@bryan_johnson Bryan, be sure to avoid that sparkling wine. Alcohol raises your blood pressure, resting heart rate, and negatively affects your ability to get sufficient REM sleep. I just thought you should know that.

@ken_wheeler @CommitToMaster Nah this guy is right. You should've went with something a bit more classy. For example, this Pokeball popcorn maker.

@techsavvytravvy @wagslane Thanks for expressing the same frustration I had with that sentence without needing me to flush it out.
