  • This is about the most “your-mileage-may-vary” topic possible, but almost certainly, yes, especially when it comes to the stuff you talk about. Kids at 2yo just need way more helicoptering than they do a year or two later. Our son developed a heck of a talent for entertaining himself roundabout that age, so yeah, you’ll get to have your own leisure time back. That’s just kinda the sacrifice you sign up for, the first few years you get very very little.







  • Anecdotally, from a programming support community I hang out in…

    i’ve never seen anyone promote the values of Clean Architecture in the practical world. The only reason I even know about it, really, is because it’s a pretty popular topic for amateur/beginner developers to come in and ask about, because they read a book or a blog article about it, or are being taught about it in a class. And the response is always, universally, “Don’t use Clean Architecture, use Vertical Slice Architecture.”

    I get the vibe that it’s been popularized in the same pattern as microservices or lambda functions: someone at a super-scaled company like Google or Amazon published a blog post about it, and how it works for them for some niche scenario, and everyone latched on to it as trendy, despite the fact that their scenarios are NOTHING alike












  • Machine learning in medicine and healthcare has been around for decades, and has basically nothing to do with the LLM and image generation garbage that has now colloquially become known as “AI”.

    Half the problem with “AI hate” is how goddamned nebulous of a term it’s become. When people say they hate AI, they’re almost certainly talking about specifically all the new generative commercialized stuff from just the past few years, but so many people hear that and assume something a LOT broader.
