What's Next for Valticus? Blog Updates and Future Plans

Back in 2021, I wrote about my plans for this blog — a vision to create a valuable resource covering various topics beyond just programming. Looking back, it’s interesting to see how those plans unfolded and what directions the blog actually took.

What Was Planned

The original plan outlined several content categories:

  • Programming and coding tutorials
  • Book recommendations and reviews
  • Hardware recommendations
  • Software tools and discoveries
  • Various merchandise and gear

What Actually Happened

The blog evolved in unexpected directions. Here’s where the focus actually landed:

How AI Is Transforming the Way We Code (And What It Means for Developers)

AI, or Artificial Intelligence, is revolutionizing technology and software development at the moment, and to no surprise. AI can help humanity in many different areas, such as diagnosing an illness at an early stage with machine learning, or assisting a driver with direction through GPS navigation, or driving you to a desired destination with autonomous vehicles. The integration of AI tools in programming workflows has transformed how developers approach coding and software engineering challenges.

What Have I Been Up To Recently?

If you’ve been following my blog you might have noticed that I haven’t written anything in quite some time. “So, what’s up?”, you might ask.

Well, long story short — lots of things have happened March through May, 2021. Most of them unpleasant to say the least and personal, so I’d rather not disclose the details. However, I’ve also done a few things related to Information Technologies.

  1. I’ve switched to Windows entirely. That’s right — no more dual-booting and Linux for me. While I still like Linux and support the Free and Open Source ideology, I’ve also come to realize that I don’t have the time to maintain two different operating systems.
