Accept it to change it

This era may be defined not by the technology itself, but by our willful ignorance of what it actually is.

Ship reality

Stop building castles in the air, ship reality.

Build with intention

Build with intention and strategy unless you enjoy spending your days being a janitor.

Don’t let agents code from memory

Models freeze at training time. The fastest-moving APIs are exactly the ones you don’t want an agent guessing at.

Pick the canonical copy

AI raises the velocity of generation. The bottleneck moves to remembering which version is real.

Learn code

There's no way around it. If a simple Python script would do the job, AI isn't the answer. Learning code is.

Surface the unexpected

Stop trying to catch AI in the act. Build systems that surface the unexpected.

Your advantage is critical thinking

Depth used to be the edge. Now critical thinking is what's left.
