i realized this week that i don’t care about writing the code all that much. i care about understanding abstractions.
code is still just an abstraction so sometimes i need to manually write it out understand it
pretty surprised honestly. it’s quite enjoyable

i guess we’ll give it a shot
what feels to me like a great setup for how i plan to "code" with ai
"harness engineering"
i'm interested in what will be a new era of exciting tooling (etc git, etc)
our tooling for verification and releasing safely is the bottleneck now (pushed far right)
use ai to boost agency, not reduce
more than ever you can choose what to spend time and effort on, don't give that up

"AIs" 🤣
re: cognitive atrophy from ai.
i'd say don't use it for exploration. do the exploration and mental model building yourself and use it for verification/ checking your mental model
use it to do things you know how to do

these numbers feel accurate.

don't delay inevitables
remember to pet your dog. or touch grass. go for a walk/run/hike.
software engineer and career isn't the only thing in life (even when it feels like that's your world). the world is much bigger
if you want to be a leader, remember that means you have to lead
