It's a weird time. I am filled with wonder and also a profound sadness.
I spent a lot of time over the weekend writing code with Claude. And it was very clear that we will never ever write code by hand again. It doesn't make any sense to do so.
Something I was very good at is now free and abundant. I am happy...but disoriented.
At the same time, something I spent my early career building (social networks) was being created by lobster-agents. It's all a bit silly...but if you zoom out, it's kind of indistinguishable from humans on the larger internet.
So both the form and function of my early career are now produced by AI.
I am happy but also sad and confused.
If anything, this whole period is showing me what it is like to be human again.

It's critical to be on the right side of a technological trend & to choose wisely. Typically when you pick it right, problems get solved with time automatically (cost, performance, size, etc) but if you pick it wrong you get stuck for longer or find yourself in a shrinking market

I’m seriously hoping this is a parody.
Because, if it’s not, the GE smart bulb team should be charged with violating the Geneva Convention.
This is torture.
