fair enough I suck at headlines any suggestions?

I guess a community of solo founders can help with that

muhu.ai : an ai product manager (makes biz reports and benchmark your dev team, keep everyone aligned)

https://curriculum-me.fly.dev/ makes a curriculum with books links for anything

working on muhu.ai : ai product manager

and this small site makes a curriculum for anything you want to learn and gives you books + sources to do so:

on our end the core is open sourced, we keep the saas backend closed.

mov al,0x13 brings back memories :)

yeah emergence and strange loops are weird :)

I read an article where they did a proper Turing test and it seems people recognize it was a machine answering because it made no writing errors and wrote perfectly

You need time for inertia to happen, I’m working on some mvps now and it takes time to test what works what s possible what does not…

Electis | remote | Paris/France We re using e voting encryption to bring trust (open source) | SAAS Electis.app

Python Engineer Specializing in Cryptography at a Freshly Funded Startup

We've secured $1M in early-stage funding and are searching for a Python engineer with solid expertise in cryptography and JavaScript to join our team.

If you have experience with homomorphic encryption, you could be our ideal candidate (we re currently using election guard)

Franck [at/] electis.io

just easier to run on smaller hardware

I hope this will also help to advance the research on Lewy Bodies Dementia (also correlated by mis folded alpha synuclein

Funny I asked it questions about general relativity as Einstein too :)

Seems like a field where GPT could do a descent job

libgen?

hahaha good one :) reminds me that in french/latin languages the word for work (travail) is thought to comes from the latin tripalium an instrument of torture / or trabaculum ( could mean like a worker yoked to his job)

At the end of the days there are people willing to match their skills with a job and some who are not it s just a market equilibrium thing / demand never match the offer perfectly and innovations tend to displace work towards higher productivity…

i agree with everyone else here :

1. you are competent! most dev are glorified plumbers we just stitch stuff together to make it work. Also 28 is young :) i remember feeling the same at 27, specifically i burned out and quit to do a world trip! At that time someone told me i was too old :) i was not and reflecting now, i would love to keep that state of mind till i die!

2. you are burned out / need a break maybe even a year, if the issue is $ then start by creating an upwork or fiver profile and see if you can get jobs then consider moving to a cheap place with internet and a weather you would like to work remote (bali / vietnam / brazil / estonia …)

3. to become a better dev i think reading would help, stepping back from code to focus on math / algo and the theory can help with developing an eye for the big picture. another way is like chess study your own games, look at code you produced and zoom into the library you ve used, look at its code hack it try to understand it and reach out if you don t understand something to those who built it. Finally you can also take a theme / something you re passionate about or something new (AI / VR ..) and learn about it, you will then progress like you did before, it always feels good

4. to network join meetups / dev conf / hackhatons etc.. i might be wrong since i don t dev anymore but i remember observing that when i would i could not socialize much, it was even worst when i studied Math, my hypothesis is that you tune your brain so much to logic and solving stuff that it s hard to meet people who don t want nor know how to talk about these obsessions/ but you ll be fine with your peers :)

5. finding your own direction / meaningful life, this one has been a tough one since the dawn of mankind up to existentialists. the usual way is to have a religion or to philosophy. In a more practical manner you can also create your own biz (go to a startup weekend for example) if you have no idea what you love or want to do, try to observe what pisses you off and build something to solve it (could be a library etc) check also ressources like indiehacker another way is to observe what you do naturally when not working, what s your passion a last trick is to imagine what you would do if uou won the lottery and just do that …

good luck fellow human!

i too want to learn math, but being more advanced i m looking at specific fields like number theory or differential geometry. I just need some math to advance in physics… i came to the conclusion while self learning that a tool like a “google translate” for math or a hypertexted math would be of great use to find the right curriculum… pitched it to a foundation / but will def try to push it at one point of my life… Math education could go a lot faster than it does now

would love a columbo game where you have to commit the perfect crime and an AI columbo tries to prove you guilty :)

yep same here ebay has lost me as a customer forever, it feels insulting to be banned when you know you are a honest customer … must be a bad management choice of being led by the wrong KPIs

sounded like an episode of the office, thanks for the good laugh

always do detailed equity vesting…

Hey there French/American here I’ve moved from nyc to puerto Rico and in the past two years I’ve been in Estonia. AMA

Yep these are anti cafe models (HUBSY is one) you can find them on google maps. On my side I find paris too expensive I moved to Estonia where any normal cafe is cool to hang out at or co working are at a descent price too (aorund 250$ a month) including free coffee (Palo Alto labs is one)

Something that makes me feel better has been to read Einstein or Feynman or other physicist who helped advance mankind knowledge. They all share two things, first they profoundly understand their subject and explain it as simply as possible, two they have no shame talking about their weaknesses since they have nothing to prove. We re only human and what you perceive as you being dumb and other being geniuses is just an illusion. We all are knowledgeable about different subjects and the one on the top are their being some amazing alignment of luck…

2002 here got into the market right after the 2000 bubble and the second Irak war… my lessons learned since has been to travel and go where the market is better.
