If you ask your mom "is the sky blue" she says "yes" immediately, that's jev.
If you ask your dad "why is the sky blue" he talks for ten minutes, that's an LLM.

Banning social media for teenagers only puts them in greater danger.
Teens are forced to switch to VPNs — and unlock far worse illegal content.
We’ve seen this before. When the Russian government banned Telegram, 95% of Russian teenagers kept using it. They just moved to VPNs.

This is the point. Same will happen in all countries that will make social media age restrictions. “Won’t someone think of the children” is usually not about the children

how to be good at your job
- realize this one thing is actually made up of two separate things
- realize instead of solving the direct problem you can solve a broader problem
- instead of implementing thing, implement other thing that makes it easier to implement thing

spent the week writing evals for the first time.
what i learned: if you’re shipping AI features without evals, you're shipping vibes.
if you can’t describe what good looks like in an eval case, you don’t actually know what you’re building.

Everyone loves the idea of being a founder. Nobody loves the reality:
3 years in, 6 pivots, $0 in the bank, and a co-founder who quit. Parents doubt you. Investors Ghosts.
But you still show up at 120%.
The exit shows the world who you are. The struggle reveals who you are.

The last 18 months changed more than the previous 10 years. The world is moving at an unprecedented speed
I stopped making plans longer than 90 days in a world where new AI models/tools are dropping like rain
That's the pace of AI/tech right now
I think it's only accelerating

the ADHD urge to use parenthesis in every sentence (because every thought comes with additional bonus content)
