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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Did any child? I think by the time we die we should have achieved some understanding and love with connecting with other humans by the tools given to us. It might be somewhat uncomfortable but the pros outweigh the cons. For the most part, authentic experiences aren’t digital but the current generation are loosing what is. In my opinion.

Sought after but many don’t know that is what they are searching for.

Getting the real senior devs in the enables and protects the process. Whether that process is winning depends on the total culture of humans segueing over things they want.
