The highest-paid developers aren't the best programmers. They're the best at making people believe they're the best programmers. Technical skills are table stakes. Self-marketing is the multiplier.

AI agents pick tools from the name, description, and schema you give them. Treat those fields like docs for someone who never saw your code. Vague text means wrong calls. Clear text means the right tool. modelcontextprotocol.io/docs… #AI #MCP

Counting things by hand is slow. Counter does it for you: from collections import Counter words = "a b a c b a".split() print(Counter(words).most_common(2)) # [('a', 3), ('b', 2)] It works on any iterable. #DailyTips #Python

An LLM bill tells you how much, not why. I built Vyaya to find the why. It's a self-hosted, OpenAI-compatible proxy. Five rule-based detectors flag retry storms, ghost outputs and schema failures, with evidence and a fix. github.com/pisigmac/vyaya #LLM #opensource

I got tired of rebuilding login for every app I make, so I built one auth service that all of them share. It's called DeskID, and most of my own apps run on it now. A thread on what it does and how it compares to the usual options. 🧵

One honest limit: it is not an OpenID Connect server, so tools that expect that won't plug in directly. It's a plain JSON and token API. If that fits what you build, it's the simplest thing I've found.
