I started a few months ago putting together a Python book starting with decades of my little projects and then I looked for 'modern' topics to add. Although I have been a Prolog enthusiast since the 1980s, I have only four or five months of professional Prolog development experience. I relied heavily on DeepSeek v4 (with some use of Gemini 3, and Claude Opus models) in developing and debugging the example programs and for editing and improving the text for this book.

I hope people have fun with this.
Absolutely fascinating piece by @davideoks connecting language model oddities to human cultural development. Picked this up courtesy of @deenamousa's "Under Development" newsletter.

The best career advice I got from my first mentor:
Don't go into management. Stay an IC.
At first I thought he was wrong. We're taught at a young age that "success" is a fancy title and a ton of people that report to you.
It turns out he was right.
Middle management is the most dangerous seat in corporate America. Simply put, it's much harder to replace a top performer doing the actual hands on work, vs. someone someone overseeing it.
As a top performing IC, I made more than the managers above me on commission alone. And I had more leverage, because I was a top producer who could point to a number to show literally how valuable I was to the company.
When business goes south, companies don't fire the people building the product or closing the deals.
They fire the people scheduling meetings about the product.
This guy at Meta survived the round but got converted back to IC and he's calling it "suboptimal."
It's not. It's the safer seat, especially in this market. He just doesn't see it yet.
Tie your name to a number or tie it to code. Everything else is overhead.
This poster of the NeXT logo from 1986 hangs in my living room. Maybe you've seen it in the background of my podcasts and TV.
It is signed by legendary logo designer Paul Rand. A thoughtful gift from a NeXT employee, and a memento from Steve Jobs in Exile.
