"How are you coping?"

I'm using AI at work; however, I still believe fundamentals are valuable.

This is why at 37 I still do every day a session of MathAcademy[1] and recently I built a tool to practice coding&algorithms[2] that I plan to do a session each day because I believe coding&math will prove useful in the future and the only way to get really good at them is to practice them in a deliberate way and also have a sort of review component built in place.

These 2 take around 1h combined each day. Will I look back in 10 years telling myself I wasted this time? Probably not, because I really enjoy doing both of them and I really like learning stuff, so at least I can look back and know I had fun learning.

Your photos are amazing!


you are very kind :)


Do you run at the same pace? I'm just curious how can conversations between multiple people running are going on


Mostly yes, the group stays together. We run road or trail not track. No one is really serious about pace and time, or if you are you treat group runs as social time and do your own thing later.

One group just meets at the start, people go off and do their own thing and then come back to the start for coffee at a cafe. That way everyone from walkers to people doing a long run can all hang out afterwards but not actually run together.

The best are trail runs with 8-10 people, you end up walking the hills and take a short break every 5-10 minutes so you can chat with almost everyone over the hour you're out there.
