There's a lot of focus on AI taking away jobs. I believe it will constitute an existential threat to a lot of companies. Highly productive solo individuals and very small teams will outcompete large companies by leveraging AI. When cap

The work of a master craftsman using the most basic hand tools is still leagues ahead of any amateur with advanced tools, automation, fancy CNC, and lasers. Mass production is where the tech would favour that amateur. We are surrounded by c

The python packaging situation could be better but poetry is pretty good. I think the real problem with python packaging is a cross-language one. Show me a language that can elegantly handle building C/C++ dependencies across platforms

Maxwell's original paper presented 20 equations. Heaviside's elegant formulation simplified these into the 4 familiar vector calculus equations. I doubt that this has been the obstacle to a unified field theory.
