Short notes for things I've read.
Experts and imitators can be difficult to distinguish. Imitators may sound like experts but lack deeper understanding, struggle to explain concepts in their own words, and get frustrated when asked probing questions. True experts, on the other hand, can discuss the limits of their knowledge, admit to failures, and adapt their communication style. Additionally, popularizers who effectively communicate complex ideas are often mistaken for experts, when in reality they may not have the same depth of expertise. The key is to look for signs of genuine, earned expertise rather than just surface-level proficiency.

The post highlights how impactful technological advancements can be achieved in relatively short timeframes, citing examples such as Bram Cohen's creation of BitTorrent and John Carmack's early innovations in computer graphics. It argues that computing's youth and the relatively limited prior art make it possible to reach the cutting edge of a sub-field within a few years.
Additionally, the post stresses the necessity of working on important problems and becoming **a producer of technology r

I have been using git for years and are still afraid of it. It sucks to be afraid of the tools that you use in your work every day. So, I will upgrade my git knowledge and skills whenever I can.
The timing is good. Julia Evans's Git zine just came out. I got a copy of it. I enjoy reading it.
