Sam Altman shared that GPT-3, GitHub Copilot, and Dall-E have more than 1 million signups each.
What’s even crazier?

The EU has voted against continued daylight savings in 2021. Each country gets to decide which time they keep. This means countries in the same time zone can have different times. Devs that hard coded summer time/wintertime are going sweat bullets 😅

In 1967, an operations manager at Bell Labs in Oakland brought his camera into work and captured a day in the life of the company. The workplace is noticeably filled with women, typical of an era when coding was viewed as women’s work. buff.ly/2WsEmH2
