You can start by learning that "AI" is first & foremost a marketing term used to mystify & oversell a vast array of data-centric techniques that generally require resources only a few companies have & are frequently protected from validation & scrutiny by trade secrecy

#Insiders even as #LNPLies Angus bleats about 'balanced' budgets....lets recall they have not yet delivered one. More importantly Australia is fiat currency system, Gov is ISSUER of the currency. Taxes dont 'pay' for anything that's NOT how our system works. #auspol #LearnMMT

it’s so funny that every single person’s worldview is so directly and obviously tied to how they feel abt themselves (self-loathing, self-loving, open, afraid)

In standup: yeah first I'm going to wait for an RDS cluster to become available, then I'm going to wait for an RDS instance to become available, then I'm going to run a test migration. If it fails, I'll just do all that again, all day. No blockers

A reminder that tech is riddled with survivor bias and that those that fetishise working 80 hour weeks do so because they wrongly think nothing worthwhile can be built without it. “High performing individuals” aren’t those that sleep at the office. 🙄

Building a roadmap around solutions/features means that you're not taking the time to frame your problems. Work out your options - which levers can you move to shift the North Star metric, and which do you think is the most impactful one? - before you get into the weeds & widgets

putting on the 'they live' sunglasses and reading "effective altruism" as "reganomics for zoomers, now with moral offsetting"
