The field of software is slowly getting worse for some and better for others. I'm probably going to just contract myself out.


AI slop is very exhausting to understand. If it's well written maybe not. If its obviously AI then that should be flagged.


ai writing should be rewritten or polished at least as a form of respect for others.


Honestly homeschooling does sound 1000000x better due to social media in schools being cancer for young children.


Timescale is a much cooler name. Also heres a conversation I just had with Jippity. There are some nicer names imo.

Hello my name is Ahmad tabbakha I've been writing backend code for almost ten years now. From real time virtual assistants (at Toyota) to building qr code apis for Bitly I've worked on products that are used by millions of people around the world. My primary strength is golang and I excel at teaching others what I know.


Good writing has the benefit of helping others for many decades and centuries. That's a realization I came to recently. My goal now is to write a variety of essays, articles, and books on topics that I excel in.


This predictability problem is something no one seems to realize. You can't replace an individual that can master things to a relatively high level of accuracy. Everyone is obsessing over speed but driving fast gets you killed.


After reading Cal Newports book on digital minimalism I've removed Instagram entirely cold turkey. It's been three years now and I occasionally use the desktop version to message some friends.

The great thing about it is that I've saved myself many hours. I use that time for reading and walking and a variety of other activities. Also my attention span and mental health improved drastically.


Will this pop the AI bubble?


I think if GPT-5 is very underwhelming we could start to see some shifting of opinion on what kind of return on investment all of this will result in.


This is GPT-5, or rather what they clearly intended to be GPT-5. The pricing makes it obvious that the model is massive, but what they ended up with wasn't good enough to justify calling it more than 4.5.
