Just focus on putting your phone in a draw for as long as you can, leave a stopwatch on it running so you can see how long you have left it - it will be short to start with but with practice you’ll regain the ability to live without consumi

I fear this is just the beginning, I’ve seen nothing to say the voting American public are any less into divisive politics than they have been for the last decade [edit autocorrect changed divisive to decisive]

For what it’s worth I’ve not heard anyone ever say anything like that about SAAS developers, it’s a scary time for us all but software dev isn’t going to stop overnight.

Can you elaborate? My personal niche was very popular on twitter until Elon bought it and everyone left, now I don’t know anyone still using twitter who was in that niche.

I use LLM’s to code for me all day but it does feel a little bit like we have really advanced psychic mediums “is there a James in the room, I’m getting a message from someone called Mary…” people have been guessing at the next word and mak

It’s worse than that, false positives are possible but someone generating text should be able to get ai to change some words and formatting to break the watermarking, then ai detectors can tell them how well they did. I don’t know what the

I listened to the dose effect [1] and that has really helped me get my attention back. I’ve deleted TikTok and now get blocks of focused work done and I haven’t been this effective or happy in years. I genuinely believe the next generation

I don’t get this feeling, I feel like I’ve achieved so much more than I have ever achieved, everything is polished and I’m happy with it. I’m still developing, I’m just doing more than I ever did by directing Codex. The way I see it is the
