🌱 “If you aren't growing into the future, you are shrinking into the past.” - David Droga Hello Reader, Have you ever heard of the Diffusion of Innovation?

🤖 “By the end of this decade, there will be machines that can carry out most human professions at least as well as a typical human.” – Ray Kurzweil Hello Reader, There's a point on every skill curve where dabbling doesn't work.
