You're not nearly jaded about about the modern media landscape. A boring and "correct" (whatever that means in context) writing about a subject like this will never make it to the top of a comment based platform because it needs to be wrong or at least loosely worded enough the low denominator reader can engage with it in the form of commentary, further people can bicker with them, etc, etc. It's basically the modern version of a playwright 500yr ago designing a play such that the audience of illiterate peasants can participate, only it's high brow instead of for the masses.

I spend about $1k/mo on groceries and basic necessities for a single immigrant mom with five kids who escaped an abusive relationship. Plus some extras like birthday or Christmas presents for the children. Emergency costs too.

Started buying some items for them in 2020 when the pandemic hit and they lost what little income they had. Slowly it grew into large-scale support, and I'm committed to help to get the folks to adulthood.

The impact: I've learned to let go and become less stingy. Donate much more frequently these days because I realized I have more than enough. Much happier this way.

A side note to the general point of the article, but I hate how the tech industry uses the word "democratization" to mean "lowering the barrier to entry". These concepts differ from each other but many use the former term because in doing so they justify their actions as driven by some sort of moral imperative when in reality, the development of LLMs is morally neutral, not inherently bad by any stretch, but as much a wealth and power play as any other technology of the last 25 years.

Perhaps you can share some examples of the films you are referring as "mindless banter in between sex and explosions". I'm not sure that description really fits most of the films coming out recently. If you said, "Dumb comic book films", I would maybe agree with you, but there isn't typically any sex in those so I assume you are not referring to them.

Covid halted the production of a lot of movies, and changed how others were made. It also shut down theaters. So, "since covid", is really talking about before and after an era. Kind of like saying, "since 9/11", in terms of the impact on culture. A lot of creativity has moved from the movie theaters to streaming services and from films to more episodic content.

However, here is a short list of films worth seeing (imo) since covid (2019).

Zone of Interest (2023) The Holdovers (2023) Parasite (2019) Dune (2021) Dune Part Two (2024) Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022) 1917 (2019) The Banshees of Inisherin (2022) The Substance (2024) Palm Springs (2020) Oppenheimer (2023) The Lighthouse (2019) Hundreds of Beavers (2022) Barbarian (2022) Flow (2024)

I'm 100% for writing a diary, journal, lab notes, personal knowledge base, etc without ever publishing it. I think it's a great thing to do.

But I think publishing your writing requires you to consider an audience and be clear about what you're saying. I've gone back through my journals many times and wondered what I meant when I wrote it?

Additionally publishing something add upside - like someone sending you an email asking a question or others building on your ideas.

ps. I'm not saying this as a success writer, I'm saying this as someone with almost a 100 unpublished drafts and some regrets :)

Says the headline a web page that takes 12s to load on a modern machine.

People tend to ignore a problem if it's someone else's. The costs of [insert disruptive technology here] are largely externalised - on our natural environment, on individuals' livelihoods, on violated copyrights, on independent hosts' infrastructure, on pedestrians, on about-to-be burnt-out/jobless/homeless, etc. What you gain in efficiency, you will use to bring more for yourself, not to bring less harm to someone else. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Money buys me a lot of things that lead to my happiness - the ability to tell my wife that she could stop working in 2020 when she was 44 and I was 46 and we could travel post Covid and she could pursue her passions.

It gives me enough to know that I could be out of a job for a year without being homeless and hungry (not counting retirement assets)

It means that even though we live in Florida, I can still say “let’s go to Costa Rica and Panama City for the entire winter”. And even locally when I want to fly back to my former home for a weekend every quarter just to play cards with my friends and hang out I can or if we just want to rent an Airbnb back home for a couple of months during the summer to spend time with friends and our adult sons.

When our friends suggest we get together and go on a cruise during Christmas we don’t think about it, we just say “yes”.

When my younger adult son calls us and tells us he is going to be temporarily laid off during Christmas we just ask how much he needs and don’t think about it.

Notice I didn’t say “buy things”. We live in a 1200 square foot condo and everything we own besides our car can literally fit in four suitcases and we have actually traveled around the country with everything we owned in suitcases. Even the furniture in our condotel came with it and if we do sell it, it stays with it. We threw away or gave away everything but the clothes we actually wear and our electronic devices and we even downsized those. If you can’t tell - we really hate “stuff”. Our one car is the cheapest thing that we could buy that was the base level of comfort we could deal with.

We use money for experiences, spend time with friends and family to allow my wife to pursue her passions and do her volunteer work. Even before she retired she was able to get a lower paying job (with the benefits we needed then) working with special needs kids.

This thread reminds me why UX is so bad on most services.

Most developers think of MX (My Experience), not UX.

You're okay with going to different websites to find a book you might want to listen to. So everyone else should prefer that experience.

Or, you could write a database query that finds the top 5 reads in 5 genres that runs once a week for the homepage. Or you can copy a few of those book recommendations onto the homepage and give people a nice place to start clicking around (great idea).

All this resistance in the replies to a tiny bit of consideration for the website visitor just reveals another piece to the puzzle of why good UX is so rare.

I've brought this up in the last couple comments, but it really is like listening to people go to war defending why they don't need a README for their Github repo. Except in LibriVox's case, it's a repo that everyone else spent hours of their life contributing to. Just make the dang README. Promote a few volunteer contributions.

I guess for me the questions is, at what point do you feel it would be reasonable to this without the experts involved in your case?

As an edit, after reading some of the prompts, what is the likelihood that a non-expert could even come up with those prompts?

The really really interesting thing would be if an AI could actually generate the prompts.

Customer-Facing Engineer / DevRel / Support Leader — Built multiple 0→1 functions at early YC startups.

I'm a customer-facing technical leader with 10+ years in tech and a track record of building customer experience functions from scratch. Most recently, I was the first customer-facing hire at Pythagora (YC W24), a startup building an AI software engineer. I owned everything outside of engineering: support, developer relations / developer advocate, docs, YouTube demos, influencer outreach, blog posts, and building + open-sourcing demo apps.

Before that, I was the first remote hire at Streak (YC S11) and spent several years owning customer onboarding, support, and automation. I also learned to code on the side, eventually completing the Capstone program at Launch School.

I’m especially strong in early-stage chaos, where startups need someone who can do a bit of everything, talk to users, squash bugs, clean up docs, spin up demo apps, handle a support queue, write content, and generally make the founders’ lives easier.

I’m looking for a startup where I can either be the first customer engineer or support leader, or join a small team as a DevRel/Community Engineer and help ship content + build trust with technical users.

What I’m best at:

* Translating user feedback into roadmap clarity

* Turning vague “customer needs” into structured, scalable systems

* Writing fast, clear docs + building content users actually read

* Jumping into startup Discords and building real community

* Owning support and success systems without needing hand-holding

As a (very good I would say) product manager once told me - the product vision and strategy depends very much on the ability to execute. The market doesn't stand still, and what you _can_ do defines very much what you _should_ do.

What I mean to say here is that not even product management is reduced to just "understand the domain" - so it kinda' feels that your entire prediction leans on overly-simplified assumptions.

This is exactly the direction I expect AI-assisted coding to go in. Not software engineers being kicked out and some business person pressing a few buttons to have a fully functional app (as is playing out in a lot of fantasies on LinkedIn & X), but rather experienced engineers using AI to generate bits of code and then meticulously reviewing and testing them.

The million dollar (perhaps literally) question is – could @kentonv have written this library quicker by himself without any AI help?

> I do think the average person should know too many amps starts a fire and wrong voltage means devices don't work (sometimes with damage).

"Should"?

Almost every device I have, there's a bit that goes in the wall, and a bit that goes in the device. If it fits in the wall, it's meant to cope with the voltage in the wall. If it fits in the device, it's meant to supply the voltage the device can cope with.

That the bit in the middle for most of my devices is a modern miracle of semiconductors which contains a CPU more powerful than my first four or so home computers and games consoles to automatically negotiate* voltage and current, is cool, but not what I'd call a "should know".

> and that thin extension cords might not be safe with an appliance that has a large motor or heating element.

I didn't even think about that and I do know what amps and volts are — reason being, I assume that anything I buy in a store for general use is suitable for general use unless specified otherwise.

If your definition of a return on your blogging/writing investment is how many likes you got, you're doing it for the wrong reasons.

I am in no way a good writer, and I don't have an audience, however a few of the articles I've published on my personal site have resulted in a small number of extremely high quality responses from almost exactly the people I wanted to reach. For example, I wrote a review of an insulin pump and received a reply a few days later from a director at the company thanking me for the review and that he was sharing it with his team.

So I'd say blogging can absolutely can pay off, if you think of it in terms of making connections with the right people over time.
