When was the last time you spent multiple days trying to solve a problem? Pragmatism often wins on our projects: AI won’t come up with a 100% satisfying solution, but when a 70% solution is "good enough", your pragmatic brain goes with that one.

I miss thinking hard.

AI has changed the experience of being an engineer, starving my Thinker side while satisfying the Builder ...

President of MIT not mincing words today in @statnews.com www.statnews.com/2026/05/27/s...

So let me say it as clearly as I can: Without basic scientific research, supported by the kind of farsighted public investment that allows large-scale, undirected, curiosity-driven inquiry, the scientific pipeline will run dry.
In daily life, people may not feel the effects right away, or even in 10 years. But we will feel it. And when someone we love needs therapies that could have emerged but didn't or when other countries now
investing in science can launch new science-based industries or run their societies on vast resources of fusion energy or reap the benefits of quantum computing power or advanced medical breakthroughs, America will wish it sustained its leadership in scientific research here and now.
Sally Kornbluth is the president of MIT.

My DnD group did a one-shot & I can’t help but think @simoncox.com would love this. A metallic war forged barbarian named TPT-418. With a crystal ball-like head, it displays status codes like “OK 200” or “408 Request Timeout” to take a rest. I can see Simon rolling his eyes & smiling 🙂

The octopus on your plate can feel pain, delay gratification, and probably outthink a toddler. Just something to consider before you order.

As @johnmu.com noted, the quote “SEO is infrastructure. AI is a multiplier. The only question is whether it multiplies the part of your system you’re proud of, or the part you’ve been avoiding.” Is the heart of search’s relationship with AI. That truth extends to company infrastructure too.

Open source projects need designers. Open source projects need tech-writers. Open source projects need the same resources that all software projects need, not only developers. You have skills that you can contribute to open source projects.
