The Tech Education Problem

Companies are constantly complaining about the lack of skilled labor, the problem is that the labor they require is focused in a very narrow set of tools that they use internally.

Deciding what to learn or what to teach with this consideration becomes basically impossible. It’s very rare that you would find identical toolsets in tech jobs since most of the tools are proprietary and for internal use only.

  • Microsoft Activision is laying off 1,700 employees.
  • Pioneer might change name to AlphaTeta?
  • Generative AI tools keep popping from beneath every stone.
  • Illegal immigration is getting out of control in the MX-US border.
  • Taylor Swift had some deepfakes made and circulated on X and suddenly they are a new thing again. These type of things are already illegal in MX.
  • The Zed text editor coded in Rust was made open source. Unlike VScode, it’s a native app, not Electron based. But it’s only available for MacOS because only rich US developers deserve attention.

Here’s my hot take on using the Front Matter area in HUGO’s markdown documents to add content to a post. Front Matter should only be used for post settings. Shortcodes are meant to make adding recurrent special content to a post easier. Yes, that’s the shortcodes, not the front matter.

Enabling the comment section in a post, disabling the image resizing, setting the post as a draft or not. That’s ok. But if you use the Front Matter to add videos, or anything that belongs to the content part of the article. You are just breaking the whole purpose of using markdown and standardized formats to maintain a webpage. If you want to change theme, or view the file in another markdown app, a part of your content is now lost because it’s not living in the content area.
