In that regard it’s so similar to what internet did for us, to make knowledge more accessible, sparking our curiosity.

LLM can not and should not replace books, but it’s so good to recommend books to learn related topics, opposite options, demystifying complex and hard to grasp concepts which makes some books less intimidating.

Next time using www.getsinglefile.com to save a single HTML page and put them into Apple Notes.

Which preserves a much better well rendered self contained page. Which can be easily opened on iOS and mac OS.

Love it!

Do not lingering on the specific programming languages, focus on the systems.

I really love JavaScript (and its runtime ecosystem bun/node/deno), one of its curse is to easily think of problems as one off solution rather than a system. With the help of LLM, before diving into any detailed implementations, start with structure and modular design can have much better artifacts.

One thing I learned this year is to always think in systems, not in programming language or frameworks. That system will carry you further.

Aways bet on plain text, HTML and JavaScript. 😊

I love this tool so much.

Plain text files and HTML files are the most durable artifacts.

Thank you Gildas for making this!
