Ed and his class of people are entertainers that get confused at experts for journalists. None of them toil at the prompt sorting things out directly. The media entertainment class frustrates me. They often spread sound bites that are off by big margin and shift markets. I find podcasters that are curious about a subject are better at finding the truth about a tech subject then finance wonks that chatter about sounds bites.

Creepy robots doing warehouse work. No prerecording. No safety net. No celebration. Just robots with name tags and people watching their job market die in real time.

New comment by djabatt in "Self-taught engineers often outperform (2024)"

djabatt — Fri, 18 Jul 2025 05:26:00 +0000

I started hacking web projects and messing with Slackware in the mid90s as a self taught dev. Before that I was always building things on my computer it felt more like creative exploration or entreatment than academic discipline which is why I never pursued a CS degree.

Whats fascinating is how differently CS trained and self taught developers approach problems CS grads often bring systematic thinking and solid theoretical foundations they'll architect elegant solutions and consider edge cases upfront Self taught folks myself included tend to be more experimental willing to hack together quick prototypes and iterate rapidly Ive found the magic happens in small teams that blend both approaches The CS trained developers provide structure while the self taught crowd brings creative problem-solving and isn't afraid to break conventional rules... sometimes there are no rules. Has anyone else noticed this dynamic Im curious if others see different complementary strengths between these backgrounds or if this varies by company culture domain

New comment by djabatt in "What to build instead of AI agents"

djabatt — Thu, 03 Jul 2025 04:19:17 +0000

I agree with your point. After working with LLMs and building apps with them for the past four years, I consider myself a veteran and perhaps an authority (to some) on the subject. I find developing programs that use LLMs both fascinating and frustrating. Nevertheless, I'm going to continue with my work and curiosities, and let the industry change the names of what I'm doing—whether it's called agent development, context engineering, or whatever comes next.
