yeah that's uh that's a good point the jet lag especially if you're only going for a conference that's two or three days long you're taking the whole conference to you never really catch up from the jet lag so um yeah So circling back to Rails World 2026, I'm sure anybody that's watching this podcast or listening to this podcast is aware of the opening keynote speech that was given by David Heinemeyer Hansen, DHH.
And it has been somewhat of a, to put it lightly, a polarizing talk, I think would be an easy way to say it.
I'm still kind of trying to digest it, but I'm not one of those people that's upset or angry or frustrated.
I mean, I think he spoke so much about how AI is really becoming a big part of our life as folks who work with software, which was completely not surprising to me.
But I think he did say some things that were surprising to even me and to many folks about other programming languages and how he's using them and how 37signals is using them.
But my takeaway was just basically nobody really knows what's going to happen in a year.
Because if you look back at last year's Earth World, nobody would have thought where we are going to be at this time.
And if we go by this pace, then he might be really right and we might be not needed in a year at all.
Or our profession is going to be changed a lot for sure in the next couple of months.
I think you should still not read all lines of code like you used to, but you should still glance through the code you are working with.
