"The dominance of neoclassical economics in our university curricula has created a world where we are told there is no alternative. Economics today resembles Catholic theology in medieval Europe: a rigid doctrine guarded by a modern priesthood" ft.com/content/9aabb4… via @FT
This is a map of the extermination and concentration camps in Yugoslavia. The Ustaše regime operated 40 of them, including 9 specifically for Serbian children. The remaining 30 were run by the Italians and the Germans.
I actually did this (ok, a few of them) at Zermatt, a couple of puny thousands of metres high, and the fever and muscle aches I went through that night were something I will never forget

I think this is also the majority view in industry.
If you treat AI (or machine learning) as a tool, then it has been useful in many scientific domains for a long time and the latest models are impressive but not yet transformative. If you treat AI as an end in itself, then I can see why the last years feel transformative.
This LIGO AI stuff sounds like a cool piece of work but "we really needed the AI" is not what I would conclude from this paragraph
“If I promote myself out of coding, I become a project manager.. a project manager of a murder of AI crows”
"I use AI in a separate window. I don't enjoy Cursor or Windsurf, I can literally feel competence draining out of my fingers." @dhh, the legendary programmer and creator of Ruby on Rails has the most beautiful and philosophical idea about what AI takes away from programmers.

Student is worrying about how to make code good. This is an important reminder that I will be sharing.
I've just published a new article over at Spomenik Database that explores the heritage of "Tito Towns" across the former Yugoslavia. There were eight in total, from Titograd to Titov Veles. Check out my article to learn the history about each of them: spomenikdatabase.org/post/tito-town…
