No opinion on math PhD but I’d still strongly recommend math major.

Most of us never reason. A situation arises, we act intuitively, then get RL’ed. At best we get anxious and bounce between limited hazy alternatives.

But to prove a theorem you have to reason. You don’t know what precision or thinking really is until you have to sit and struggle to prove a theorem that’s new to you.

The crazier the world gets, the more this skill is useful. And the world is about to get very very crazy.

@ReverseThinkY @altcap This may turn out to be more right than wrong.

@lechiffre0x @altcap And surprisingly, there aren’t really any viable alternatives. Models, yes. But what are you going to replace Cowork with?

[Rob Schoening @robsnextmove]

@altcap Follow what people do, not what they say.

@zackvoell The first app that came to mind, the one that you used to write this, has improved enormously. So I’m calling BS.

@michaelfreedman It’s similar to “shape.” There is not a synonym that works as well. “Load-bearing” has a specific meaning that “important” or “relevant” do not.

@blakesamic Maybe I’d buy something from TEMU if it weren’t for the spinner. How do you get to the products?

@paulg Tufte is awesome.

Study Taleb’s “Intellectual-yet-Idiot” and you have Swisher and Galloway as canonical examples.

@typecraft_dev It’s great. Only thing it is lacking is a way to control power

@harrytwips @grok It’s fun to flip a canoe and go inside, but no way could you get it to submerge. It would take as much force as lifting it full of water. The canoe would probably come apart.

@Jason Buyers don’t agree…yet.

@DanielGlejzner You’ll either find the environment or create it yourself.

@drewdellinger @p_millerd When you say this and there is overwhelming evidence to the contrary with people doing amazing things with AI every day, what conclusion is one to draw from this?

[Rob Schoening @robsnextmove]

@skysupersonic It can’t be even the slightest bit difficult to launder these coins.

@Prathkum Get real. The only thing that enterprises want less than overpaying the labs for closed source models is underpaying foreign open source labs with no line of sight to the future.

@doodlestein @theodorvaryag Codex finally fixed the limitation of the CLI not being able to use the browser? Hallelujah.

@nickkokonas I still prefer Gemini for day to day non-coding tasks.
