Software used to solve problems for users. Now AI is solving most problems for users, but not all (although ever increasing). I think software needs to evolve to solve the category of problems that AI is not (yet) good at. For example very hard (extreme long horizon) problems in digital space which are still expensive to solve. Some domains overlapping with real-world and restricted/regulated industries are also not yet disrupted by AI to the level regular SaaS is. To get ahead one needs to start in those domains now, as it will get much harder once AI will start eating them.

I think about this quite often, as 2 of my kids were born in Ireland, but grew up elsewhere (Slavic country). I speak English with them, but so do some of my friends/neighbors with their kids. The other kids would seldom speak English though, while my kids seem to default to English somehow. Btw. they left Ireland when they were 2y and 9months old (now 9 and 7), never attended daycare there, were only exposed to English at grocery stores, doctors etc. My point is, the early exposure to the language seem to make huge difference. I'm sure it's a combination of other things too but I'd say it is definitely a strong factor. [edits: grammar]

I'm building StaticBot.dev. I was surprised how tedious the manual setup for hosting static websites on AWS infra still was after 2 decades in the industry, and as I wanted to put a few websites out there to test waters for some ideas I had recently, decided to tackle it myself. So basically scratching very own specific itch: deploying and managing a fleet of static project websites in AWS infrastructure with IaC and nice UI. I wouldn't myself use something with (hidden) vendor lock-in, so opted for "hybrid" approach where user can deploy conveniently using the tool but has up-to-date terraform code avaiable in s3 so can take over project deployment anytime. Not much of a business mind so I might open source the whole thing later on (though the value of code kind of plumetted lately as AI can generate it so well).

Is it roughly correct to think the speed of the camera in the ESA video would be 683,280,000 times the speed of light? Considering the zoom in took ~1 minute, and that's the number of minutes in 1300 years (the distance to Horsehead Nebula).

Just curious - do you invest in startups?

If you think that you are lucky to have good friends and helpful colleagues, maybe turn it around and think to yourself - they are lucky to have me!

Personally, I consider people who are humble or even low self-esteem as more interesting. Maybe it even correlates with intelligence? Idk, but the fact that you might feel like you lack confidence can actually make you look more interesting to people.

I know many people (including me) who try to minimize contact with with over-confident people when possible.
