Some Learnings
- From my understanding,
Focus more on learning coding. - The abstraction sure does help, but the more abstracted one gets the more harder it is to design systems. Best illustrated by my difficulty to better understanding how to improve in Lossfunk. There's a significant lack of direction because I find it hard to put into words the structure I've seen.
I think the concept of ‘thinking clearly’ needs to be emphasised further. The focus where one has to plan, break it down and then implement has massive understated ROI. There’s a reason why the no. Of startups are exponentially increasing despite coding getting so easily accessible.
Learn, and Learn Deep. Be in the top 1% in Claude Code, and this requires you to understand how to use it well. To focus on trying to understand ideal prompting strategies, effective tool use and details that might go unnoticed. I think figuring out where to improve has more alpha than picking up a new skill.
Learn coding and go local. There's no better way. Think of a model fine-tuned by you, for you. All local, so nobody knows a thing about you, whereas you can use tech of the highest order to 100x.
