replace "doing it wrong" with "doing as learned"
[An EU-hosted cloud governed by a non-EU parent company is just "data residency" not "data sovereignty".]
iCloud's unpredictable sync means the engine is "trust Apple magic somehow"
"non-technical users" → "jargon-free people"
noticing a reflexive relationship between publishing a website with tools, and then wanting tools to consume what was published as objects
LLMs have made me smarter because my distrust in them increasingly causes me to figure things out for myself
i have an impression that ai-assisted coding is so far most enjoyed by either people who can't debug anything, or, people who can debug absolutely everything
if ai-generated open-source code is incomprehensible to review, does that effectively make it closed-source?
I see every one's project, and purpose, to be connected to all others as a piece of a grand puzzle. And my job in the last 2 years has been looking at each person, and finding where they fit, and when it works, they thrive, and the world thrives. Because the world needed them, and they needed it
and now I'm trying to see if I can create a container where people understand this is what I'm doing, how I'm doing it, and for others to help me do it
projects solve the creator's need.
products are the intersection of the creator's capacity to build a solution, solving other people's needs, and their means to compensate the work. no intersection, no product.
[I appreciate that they shared this in a public space and not via direct message or email because it enables others who might find the information useful to discover it.]
[Direct messages can contribute too, but the risk is higher that no one will see it.]
learning and teaching are two sides of the same coin, so caring or not caring about one implies the same about the other
technical or nerdy ones mind might enjoy "reading the docs/spec/manual" while everyone else looks for "show me how to be amazing"
new to me: when the mind wanders while reading, skip ahead instead of going back
[All communities need a mind programmer they trust. Today we call it "memetic engineer", "influencer", or "political leader", whereas before it was "priest" or "shaman".]
Choosing to 'skip over parts' is reading because reflects a choice about what's being processed.
If I've absorbed something through my own lived experience or heard of it in another context, I'm still "reading" the idea as I recognize it well enough to skip over.
Cultural or self-inflicted frowning upon 'screens causing us to skim rather than read' creates pressure to do things 'properly', but comparisons are not relevant: set your own objectives and make your own meaning.
Skipping is about feeling when you're not connected so that you can move to yes.
The average entrepreneur faces mild shame and maybe bankruptcy proceedings if their venture doesn’t work out, but even then they tend to maintain strong networks, saved money and cultural clout.
the greatest risk-takers in our society aren’t the tech bros on the cover of Wired Magazine, or the person with a Forbes profile.
A person who takes really hardcore risk might face starvation, destitution or deportation if their gamble doesn’t work.
if a project evolves continuously, it may be worth tracking changes for who the audience is: it currently serves X, Y, and Z people, but new possibilities or priorities would trigger different messaging.
coming from the question "who can benefit while this is incomplete?"
a bridge goes both ways
