I sometimes get the feeling that all my coding is actually a class of mathematical transforms that I have no idea how to define but feel very strongly that it is definable and AI-able.

Well it’d a curious day when an AlphaGo moment hits coding. Would be funny if it happened at the same time as Fed rate increases and destabilizing world events this year (the path from median human to top human is shallow). Mass firing of a few million highly paid redundancies out of the blue? Would be quite a sight.

Or maybe it wouldn’t happen that way, but rather it would pave the way for a leaner set of startups that were built with the power to do the same thing at the same or better velocity with an order of magnitude or fewer people.
