Human-Pilled – The Bitter Lesson meets Architectures of Participation
I think the game we should be playing is human flourishing, and I think the game of human flourishing is creating new affordances for people to create and share with each other. We’re a social species. History teaches us that we will find our way there, but we can get there more quickly or more slowly depending on the choices we make. Getting there takes mechanisms that create a circulatory economy of value exchange between humans and their agents, with humans in partnership with AI rather than replaced by it

Fable 5.2 and Jagged AGI
This would have taken months of human work, but I spent less than an hour of my time to get it to this stage. However, that leaves out a substantial part of the work of research: no human has fully checked the results, including me. AI can now produce research faster than anyone can read it, creating a crisis in a lot of academia.

Changing pickup location for someone else's parcel at Instabox
In December 2020, parcel IDs were a two-character sender prefix plus a counter, and the page for changing a pickup location treated the ID as the only credential. Anyone willing to count could move someone else’s parcel, and an unauthenticated API returned the recipient’s street address for the same ID. The critical parts were fixed in under a week; rate limiting and CORS were still open when the thread ended.

The `OTP-Token` Email Header Field
A typical email-based OTP message could contain a header like the following, specifying an OTP code of 123456, and binding that code to the origin https://example.com: OTP-Token: "123456"; origin="https://example.com"

Jobba hemma eller på kontoret? ”Frågan är betydligt större än så”
Istället för att rådfråga kollegor använder man exempelvis AI-assistenter för att ställa frågor, bolla idéer och lösa problem. Det gör oss mer effektiva som individer, men minskar samtidigt vårt behov av att samarbeta med andra. När allt fler problem löses individuellt eller delegeras till AI – vad händer då med det kollektiva lärandet och innovationsförmågan?

Doing nothing at work
In my experience, it’s still possible to be a “high performing engineer” at 80% effort. In fact, it’s easier, because you’ll be less likely to make silly mistakes from stress, and you’ll be in a position to jump on the kind of high-impact tasks that deliver outsized returns.

Management in the Age of AI
Two things are going on in the collaboration world that are making this problem worse. First, people are becoming less collaborative. AI has this magical way of convincing everyone that they are auteurs who just need to be unblocked so they can realize their vision.

Were All Those Years of Coding Wasted?
In the end, we only need to challenge our identity if we mistake programming for writing code. AI finally allows us to separate the two. And that’s where all those years of experience transfer the best: knowing not only what to build but how to build it well.

Departure learning reviews
Hiring someone is expensive. It usually takes at least 6-9 months for someone to learn a new job. And at least 18 months to get really good at it. That is a significant investment. A learning review for an employee departure would bring manager(s), HR representatives, hiring manager, hiring interviewers, possibly team members, and others into the same room to explore questions like these
