Tools that give us the opportunity to be faster, can make us faster.
Or just simply makes us rush more. Makes us make more mistakes.

Detaching from the keyboard for medium sized casual walk is a game changer.
I really like stopping my day, do a walk, not think about work in the middle of the day. Then jump right back to it with a clearer mind.
I usually listen to something non-work related while I walk that pulls me out of the thinking. Problem solving can be addictive, you need to let your mind rest a bit, so work goes better.

I was thinking about sw building as such a skill, like digging a garden, or drilling a whole. You dont develop sw for the sake of developing sw. You want to make sw for a specific need. Your own, or someone elses. Therefore, it helped even in the past, if you had another expertise, other area you are good at, and can combine sw creation and that area. I think LLMs are reiterating, and pushing for this thinking in a sense, that many needs can be already solved without being a sw dev. Or if you are a dev, you can also make many of your sw development faster, so it is even more important to have another craft, area to be good at.
Made a personal recommendation engine for meal planing using my recipes.
v1:
- Uses Tandoor for my recipes as the backend (https://docs.tandoor.dev/).
- Classifies ingredients into food groups, allowing recipes to be suggested for food groups. e.g.: red meat, non meat protein, vegetables, etc
- Can suggest meal plan with defined food group rules (3 meat per week, or protein in each lunch, etc)
- Can combine soups with mains for a meal
