@realEstateTrent You can make the person leaving at 6:00 PM leaving the dinner and next day food prepare, eat earlier, play with the kids and clean the dishes, but won't have to prepare the dinner and next day food at least.

Been chatting with my wife about an issue I want to solve, but am a bit stumped -- so thought I would ask the question here, and maybe get some ideas: We both work full-time, and have two young kids at home. Our nanny leaves at 5pm, and then I get home a bit after that. We play with the kids for about an hour (while my wife makes them dinner), have dinner, and then we each give one of them a bath, and help put them to bed. By then it's around 7pm, we're both completely exhausted. We would like nothing more than to enjoy some downtime the rest of the night after a long day, but the work is just beginning. The kitchen and dining areas are now a mess from dinner, the dishes need to be done, and food needs to be prepared for the kids for the next day. By the time all of it is done, it's after 9pm, we are beyond exhausted, and the day is essentially over. We have a cleaner that comes to the house twice a week, but of course wraps up well before 6pm. What do other people do to solve this issue? How do you win back your free time after the kids go do bed, without leaving a mess overnight and ensuring they have food ready for the next day?

There's a shocking fact about AI that nobody tells you: You can catch up to the public AI research frontier in just 2 weeks. Yes, really. I've built a $150M annual revenue startup over the last 8 years and If I were to start a company today, I’d drop everything and go all-in on AI. But like many busy software builders, I felt lost—overwhelmed by the noisy, crowded and fast-moving modern AI landscape. And I wasn’t alone. So I spent my entire holiday diving deep into AI research—reading 30+ papers, watching hours of lectures, analyzing trends, and catching up to the research frontier. ✨ Here’s what I learned: - You don’t need months (or years) to catch up. - You don’t need a PhD or decades of ML experience. - You need fewer than 20 papers and 2 weeks to understand the major breakthroughs shaping AI today. It's because the technology is extremely nascent and most techniques that came before are no longer relevant: - ChatGPT is barely 2 years old and Transformers are only 7 years old. - Most game-changing discoveries happened within the last 4 years, driven by a few breakthrough ideas, scaling laws, and efficient matrix multiplication. The biggest secret? Many groundbreaking AI papers with thousands of citations are surprisingly simple and applied, like adding "let's think step by step" to the prompt, or simply asking the LLM over and over again to improve its answer (Self-Refine). I realized there are tons of founders and builders in the same boat—wanting to dive deeper into AI but unsure where to start. I've created an essential AI Guide that helped me catch up, in just 2 weeks, to the frontier of public AI research to figure out where the next opportunities and gaps were: - Curated list of only the most important papers - Simple explanations of key concepts - Clear pathway to understanding the frontier of modern AI It’s perfect for: - Founders expanding into AI - Builders wanting to innovate at the frontier of AI - Investors looking to separate the signal from the noise 👇 Want the full guide? - Like and Share this post - Comment "AI Guide" - I'll send you the complete guide (ps, I’m also teaming up with @VishalVasishth, co-founder of @obviousvc with @ev (focused on large-scale societal impact companies like Twitter, Medium, Beyond Meat), to host a small meetup to discuss what's working and needs to be solved in the AI stack in SF. Message me if you're interested)

@polotek @betsythemuffin The issue can be even deeper. What we want of our children is a good character. "punishment" or "consequences" can make the emphasis on external behaviour without internal change, the emphasis should be on the why and character development (what you really want).

@betsythemuffin My wife and I have been grappling with this in the context of parenting. How do we navigate the difference between “punishment” and “consequences” when deciding how to discipline our child. It’s very hard.

When we talk about empathy, most people engage with it as if it’s a tool to get something to happen. That’s what I mean by transactional. “I don’t care if managers feel better.” It’s not about making them feel better. That’s not the reason to have empathy or not have it.
Marco Rogers@polotek

@buritica @skamille Asking people to have empathy is also not about whether the target "needs" it. You're not doing somebody a favor by choosing to have empathy for them. That's not the point. People keep talking about this as though it's transactional and that feels like the core misunderstanding.

Updated "Attribute Descriptors" chapter in @fluentpython 2nd edition. Deleted *A LOT* of code and explanations that became redundant with the `__set_name__` special method of the descriptor protocol, added in #Python 3.6. That's language evolution! #trait-descriptors" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">python.org/dev/peps/pep-0…
