'Code Golf' of tomorrow will become 'Token Golf'
You may have recently seen posts describing how the costs to use AI are subsidized by VC funding, and that subscriptions like Claude Pro Max 20 are actually consuming along the lines of $5000 worth of compute.
While the 'gym membership model' reduces the actual expense dramatically, a key insight is that software engineers of the future will need to learn how to be efficient with their tokens.
Using tools such as OpenRouter and best practices like indexing your project into memory.md will be key to the financial success of a project. As a business leader, AI consumption strategy is going to be an expected responsibility.
The UK government flagged these books (among others) as potential signs of far-right extremism.
List includes Tolkien's Lord of the Rings, Hobbes' Leviathan, Milton's Paradise Lost. You may be an extremist if you've read these.
What else would you add to the list?

Just a piece of advice here for people trying to buy the dip
When we see liquidations of this magnitude, thereโs a couple of things that often happen:
1) The classic v shape reversal higher only really happens in a perp driven cascade due to high funding rates in a structurally bullish trend
2) During major wipeouts like this, we typically see the main move down, and then settle like 40% above wherever the bottom wick was. Then a small bounce from shorts covering, and then chop around for a while
3) we then typically see a retest of that bottom wick from the initial cascade in the coming days
I say all that to say: take a deep breath. You donโt need to throw everything in one big hero trade. You will have plenty of time to buy this wipeout and capitulation.
Hope everyoneโs doin alright!
