Patric Gekoski shared thisI asked ChatGPT to generate some arithmetic test questions involving fractions. My daughter skipped a grade in math but we need to sure up some fundamentals. After she solved the 10 questions I asked ChatGPT to generate the answers so I could quickly check her work. ChatGPT generated wrong answers for 4 of the 10 questions i asked it! This is just basic math 🙃 My daughter got only 1 wrong. She out performed the AI. Haaahahahaha. I use ChatGPT all the time in my work. Especially for certain tasks. It's good at a lot of things. But.......this is why you shouldn't blindly trust it to write code any more than you should paste in code that you copied from stackoverflow without understanding it. If I find a solution somewhere I always make sure I understand what it's doing before I use it in my projects.

From assisting in the kitchen, to supporting the thrift store, to adding a little creativity with stickers and stationery, our volunteers were ready to provide. It’s amazing to see how even the smallest acts of service come together to make a meaningful impact in our community. #GoPenske Paul Maglionico, MBA

Patric Gekoski liked thisPatric Gekoski liked this🎓 I’m excited to share that I’ve officially graduated from the University of South Florida Muma College of Business with my bachelor’s degree in Business Analytics & Information Systems, with a concentration in Cybersecurity. When I first started college, I didn’t have every step figured out, but I was determined to make the most of each opportunity. From working multiple jobs that first year to earning a full-ride scholarship, I carved out the space to pursue what truly inspired me—entrepreneurship. What began back in high school as sneaker reselling grew into so much more. Along the way, I entered pitch competitions (earning thousands in funding!), sharpened my public speaking skills, and even had the honor of being featured both on stage and in publications. The most special part of this journey has been sharing it with my twin sister, Unique Alston. We’ve pushed each other, celebrated wins together, and encouraged each other when times were hard—and now we’re both stepping into this next chapter with our startup ventures. Graduating means more than just a degree—it’s a reflection of resilience, growth, and the people who have been part of this journey. Thank you to every person who has helped me, mentored me, or spoken into my life. I’m the person I am today because of so many incredible people. For that, I am truly grateful. And above all, I would like to thank God. Graduating from the University of South Florida is such a blessing, and I’m so grateful for His guidance throughout the journey. Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” #USF #Graduation #Entrepreneurship #NextChapter #USouthFlorida #Twins

Patric Gekoski liked thisPatric Gekoski liked thisExcited for our first away game of the season tonight with the George Jenkins High School Dreammaker Band! 🎶 One of the things I enjoy most is being able to blend my passion for volunteering with the work I do at Penske Truck Leasing. From helping the band get where it needs to go, to supporting our students as they perform, it’s a reminder that teamwork and dedication extend far beyond the field or the office. Looking forward to seeing our students shine tonight and cheering them on every step of the way. #DreamBig #GoPenske

If you have a Walmart front end interview coming up, this is what to know. It covers React, JavaScript fundamentals, rendering and browser architecture, and performance. On the React side, there are topics like the virtual DOM, higher order components, and memoization. On the JavaScript side, there are topics like let vs const, synchronous vs asynchronous code, and the difference between forEach, map, and filter. There's also a chunk on rendering and browser tech, covering SSR vs CSR, Web Components, PWAs, service workers, CSS preprocessors, HTTP/2, CSP, and Webpack. The rest covers topics like lazy loading, tree shaking, and throttling vs debouncing. Comment WALMART and we'll send you the full answers with explanations.

Building a report designer in React: 6 months. Making it not crash when users press Ctrl+Z: Another 6 months. You're essentially rebuilding Microsoft Word in JavaScript. Your undo stack has memory leaks. The print preview doesn't match the actual print. Some features aren't MVP-friendly.
