"I think and talk a lot about the risks of powerful AI. The company I’m the CEO of, Anthropic, does a lot of research on how to reduce these risks. Because of this, people sometimes draw the conclusion that I’m a pessimist or “doomer” who thinks AI will be mostly bad or dangerous. I don’t think that at all. In fact, one of my main reasons for focusing on risks is that they’re the only thing standing between us and what I see as a fundamentally positive future. I think that most people are underestimating just how radical the upside of AI could be, just as I think most people are underestimating how bad the risks could be."

Midjourney went from v.1 to v.6 in less than 2 years. If something similar happens, most jobs that could be done remotely will be automatable in a few years.

Remote work will be dead?

FYI: Sweden plans to implement the EU’s updated Blue Card Directive on Jan 1, 2025, lowering salary thresholds and expanding eligibility for skilled workers. This move could boost opportunities for Ethiopian professionals in sectors like IT and engineering. Despite high living costs, Sweden remains appealing for its quality of life and salaries.

Taste Gap

When you start some new creative practice, you very quickly confront a gap between your taste and your ability. Your taste inspired you to the work, but when you’re just getting started, you can’t make work that’s as good as your taste demands.

This is where most people quit. You see some beautiful ceramics, sign up for a ceramics class, and when your first lumpy creations emerge from the kiln you conclude, well, this is not for me. You read a short story that cuts your heart open, and you sit down to do the same, and you end up with something that doesn’t even have the strength to knock on your heart’s door. As Glass notes, the difference between the person who bails at this point—and the person who goes on to make great work—isn’t talent but practice. “The most important possible thing you can do is, do a lot of work. Do a huge volume of work,” he says. It will take years, probably, for your skill to catch up to your taste, but there’s no other way to get there. There are no shortcuts, no magic tricks, no way to download the skill to your brain, no faux-intelligence ready to do it for you. The work is the work.


Ira Glass’ famous “taste gap” story. If you’re unfamiliar, it’s short and worth a watch.

"Chewing on something about the difference between willpower and discipline: willpower is the exhaustible—and frequently exhausted—skill of negotiating choices; discipline is committing to a path and rejecting the bargain."

After one failed PR and more than 2 months of waiting. My SQL Studio PR got merged into nixpkgs.

SQL Studio is now available in the nix distribution. Nix users can now use the following command to run SQL Studio.
