Time for another open-source adventure! We’ll be joined by Max Jacobson as we visit the Rust cli-tool Tokei. Tokei generates statistics around your code and language usage. For example, chael.codes looks like:
Corey Haines has been developing software professionally in some capacity for over 20 years. During that time, he’s spent time in most roles, from individual contributor through training software teams to founding a company. He’s currently on a retreat into competency and also survive Covid sabbatical doing contract stuff for development and spending time with his two cats, Little Miss Louise and Sir Nickle of Noosie.

I built a Gem that embeds Twitch clips in Jekyll Sites! Unfortunately, I can’t use it, because I’m deploying using github-pages. So let’s change the deploy process. 😏
I’m really happy with my new website! But I can’t embed Twitch clips. In fact, no one can embed Twitch clips in Jekyll, because there’s no liquid tag for it. But we can fix that, not just for us, but for everyone!

Today I’m visited by Dr. Mahmood Hikmet, Head of Research and Development at Ohmio and HMI Technologies, is currently tasked with overseeing and synchronizing research and development activity for autonomous vehicles. I know Moody through Twitch, and he’s a science communicator focusing on bringing technical information to non-technical stakeholders. Throughout his career, he’s been closely involved with the direct development of IoT infrastructure for intelligent transportation and mobility.
