As a developer with a endless #wishlist of things I wish I could have done or tried out, now I rapidly #prototype & #build complex ideas/#projects where I knew exactly what I had to do. I am still #learning & #improving my #understanding. Just did multi repo #coding using #codex.

[Milind Shah @computingfreak]

Today #codex was experiencing high demand so I had to wait several hours. Ended up in a #git merge conflict situation which the CLI couldn't resolve but the GUI app did it fine.

Today #codex is outright complaining & not doing work as expected, says "Consider scheduling focused #development time (or additional resources)". How will it replace #developers? Token usage: total=4,06,697 input=2,91,692 (+ 2,07,99,616 cached) output=1,15,005 (reasoning 99,072)

Working on building multi #platform #agent spec functionality using #codex. just like hands-free #driving.

An experienced #developer who can talk well, imagine, articulate, define problem statements, #architect & #engineer has a massive advantage over someone who cannot, more disproportionately than ever. #Knowledge of specific #language, syntax & frameworks is no longer a bottleneck.

[Milind Shah @computingfreak]

#Humans fundamentally do not deal well with an #infinite supply of anything, especially #choices. Completely unsurprising because we are heavily constrained #biological beings that have evolved on a finite #planet with finite #resources to live out finite #lifetimes.

[Milind Shah @computingfreak]

Writing good #software was a high-#effort, high-#cost, high-#skill #endeavour. #cognitive #bandwidth, #team #coordination & #communication were bottlenecks. we will now find more dilettantes generating software than ever. the cost of just trying out things/experiments is now low.

If you #fly frequently, and haven't missed a #flight, then you're probably wasting too much #time at the #airport, trading hours of your #life for absolute certainty. #metaphor

[Milind Shah @computingfreak]

The #social contract of ‘#study hard, go to #school, get a good #job, #live a decent #life’ is about to be vaporized to smithereens. Upward #mobility for most will be a thing of the past.

#Millions of #workers are about to be given their #pinkslips. The most vulnerable are middle #managers who have become more expensive. Expect the #cafe in your #local suburb to become occupied with middle-aged former #office workers who want to get out of the #house. #RIF

[Milind Shah @computingfreak]

The amount of #money getting paid to #human labour is about to go down. Where #financial ills & stresses increase, #social ills follow in terms of broken #relationships, addictive behaviour & despair.

[Milind Shah @computingfreak]

#behavioral #risk can outweigh #technical #skill in today’s #corporate #environment. reactive #communication, pessimistic behavior & confrontational escalation are frowned upon. #organizations report factoring #collaboration & #conduct into #workforce reduction #decisions.

DGCA: “We regulate airlines.”
Airlines: “No, We regulate DGCA.”
Indian airlines don't comply with DGCA.

Sometimes, very small shifts in how you use your #time can make the difference between feeling #focused & #productive at #work, with #energy left over for #home & feeling like you’re pulling yourself through the #day in a fog of exhaustion only to collapse on the couch at #night.

In his influential 1994 book, The #Evolution of #Desire, David Buss reported that, initially at least, heterosexual males are most attracted to fertility cues in females (attractiveness, #health, youth), whereas females are attracted to #resource cues (status, ambition, #wealth).

Why is it so difficult for #urban #Indians to let fellow city residents #sleep peacefully at #night? Why do they keep bursting #firecrackers till late night even after #Diwali in spite of so many elderly #patients in #hospitals & young #kids nearby. #FestivalOfNoise #wtf #gtfo

Frequent #travel puts your identity into constant flux where it’s impossible to distinguish with #certainty who you are or what you know, or whether you really know anything at all. #Uncertainty breeds skepticism, openness & non-judgment. uncertainty helps you to #grow & #evolve.
