Have you leveled-up in your career? Did you get a job - of perhaps lost it? Or if you freelance - did you find new clients? Have your New Year resolutions come true (if you made them)? How has this past year been different from 2023? Any plans for next year?... I know it's only November :) But I already want to know :)

'I've got all the time in the world.' AI-generated UK grandmother named “Daisy” is trying scammers’ jobs a bit more tedious. UK mobile operator Virgin Media O2 created Daisy in order to speak with bad actors and waste as much of their time as possible. Using ChatGPT-like large language models, Daisy will ramble on about her passion for knitting and tell long-winded, fabricated stories about family members with the goal of keeping scammers on the line. In theory, every minute spent frustratingly chatting with Daisy about its made-up family or daily chores is one less minute a scammer could be targeting a real person. https://www.popsci.com/technology/ai-grandma-scammers/

I'm already using Codeium for some time in VSC ( instead of Co-Pilot, Cursor) and had these days a great surprise. The Codeium team released an IDE named Windsurf and it really seems to innovate and increase much the level of help to develop / debug / adjust software such as Saas. I hope you enjoy it and leave me your impressions. Here is the link with the video from someone who makes somes comparison with Copilot and cursor. The link for the editor ( Windsurf / Codeium ) is in the video description. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qsRNpR5uPUM

Hi everyone! I wanted to share a Skool group I came across that might interest you. The group is led by someone with experience at both Apple and Google, and it’s specifically designed for data scientists. Currently, there are only 55 members. From what I understand, the group will transition to a paid model after reaching 100 members, but those who join early will have free access 😉. This could be a great opportunity for anyone looking to join early! The group is called Advanced Data Science Society, and here’s the owner's profile: LinkedIn Happy learning everyone!!! @Brandon Phillips @Viktorija Trubaciute
