I think there are truths in there but depends on your view.
If you have a finite time and have a goal, is learning something that takes a longer time better towards that goal than being able to move fast and accumulate more capabilities that are on hand when you ‘forget’ them?
The answer engines and the context around my goals allow me to move at an unprecedented pace and move into places that were just not possible before.
But, the nuances learned concepts are indeed skipped over or Pareto’d
Saying it is not a tool is the most engineer thing ever to say.
Only abstractly. If you are living in the process, it is hard and very few people live that.
I can off a few times and did loose the energy and focus.
I really noticed the effect coming back in but now it is my new normal.
My personal experience has been dramatic:
5/6g a day.
Very demanding job with lots of ‘thinking’
3 times a week gym
Pre creatine I would struggle to maintain ability to do the hard thinking around 3pm. Just like, fog or I could feel my brain didn’t have capacity.
Now, I am capable till the end of the day. Feels like a well trained athlete at the end of a game being able to deliver rather than just holding on.
Suburbia is the creepiest thing known to man.
Above a price point their is no objectively ‘better’
I have been playing for 40 years and can tell you I can be mediocre on a fender/squier/gibson
In 10 years the world will not be the same.
How do you know if someone has an MBA?
They’ll tell you.
That is a good LinkedIn endorsement of ever I saw one!
I started their but it felt like a dodgy way (as it could be seen to be illegal).
We then just went aloffical and went through Google search API’s with LinkedIn as the target.
Worked a treat and was cheaper than recruiter!!!
So when pay the highest scraper, it’s ok! Same data, different manner.
I had the pleasure of scraping LinkedIn for a client. Great fun.
You should study a bit of physical geography and glacialology.
Not all ‘ice ages’ are the same.
A true ice age as you discuss is due to the distance we are from the sun. Unfortunately, we are in the opposite and the compounding effects of human induced greenhouse effect will doom us. It’s a bit like nature/nuture.
There is stuff we can control. How we handle our species and our home, the earth.
It is a delete request.
Your behavior may change and is on you. So, if you always don’t consent, nothing to delete.
CEO of tobacco do the same. What’s your point? We sell things that are bad for humans. It’s a significant part of our global GDP
The problem is not the intelligence of the LLM. It is the intelligence and desire to make things easy of the intelligence using them.
Because people who can’t code but now can have zero understanding of the ‘path to production quality code’
Of course it is mind blowing for them.
I hope he knows you are proud of him.
Yes. Money does make you happy (really, the pursuit of the money does not as it is not what we are evolved to be happy about)
Btw: logging and the ability to observe systems was the single and most successful act I have done in my career as a Data Product Manager.
I have had to fight, do tricks and ‘play the game’ so much.
I cannot stress the importance of understanding atomic movements.
The cost is high but not as high as the cost of not knowing.
Logging (at scale) is the most important thing to understand reality in your system. At scale, realities are many.
Metrics enable the ability to aggregate concepts into some kind of meaning.
Meaning can then have alerts associated to them.
You cannot create metrics on things you don’t know, which is why logging is the base.
I think you might be coming across as the moron here.
Not someone who has done their ‘ritual’ for 10 years.
Read it out loud ‘7 miles a week’
Most people sit at a desk for 40 hrs a week. That is way more damaging to your health.
I work with EPFL alumni. Brilliant minds.
Dude, the sun always shines.
Humans measuring stuff and getting pedantic is a sport for the ages.
To grind or not to grind?
