journey and destination
Response to post - I want to be a Journey Programmer Again.
Just pure thoughts on my own, without clear response to that.
For many years, I loved learning everything new - programming languages, tools to solve my problems, algorithms, reading research papers. Absorbing information is fun, but only until the moment you realize that you are collecting instead of solving problems.
LLM is a modern Archimedes' lever. Use it to accumulate knowledge, accelerate problem-solving, and learn even faster. The journey into the unknown in search of knowledge is fascinating, makes your heart beat faster, inspires, but everything has its limit. How many abandoned or unstarted projects do you have that are lying and waiting for their time to be touched? How many plans, ambitions, dreams do you have that you wanted to fulfill, but could never get close to starting? Use assistants to do this.
Not only the path is important, but also the destination - after all, you are moving somewhere and for some purpose, aren't you? So do not forget that the destination is just as important as the journey taken to get there. And let modern tools not take away the pleasure of movement, but also help you enjoy it even more than before.
Listen. Touch. And ponder. And there in lies the sensation. Cherish it, because that's what makes us exist.
