You're right! I was thinking it from the perspective that things that come from within might be more rewarding, but I agree with your point and I changed my mind, suggestions are good signal to try things.

In that sense, I would recommend first going through watchlist, reading list of similar pending things that give me a lot of peace of mind, also connect with people you have postponed to reconnect with, I'd learn an instrument (my choice would be piano) and train my self in a sport of interest (like table tennis)

Sir I'm a big fan of your hustle projects I want to be like you in that sense, I'm working to get there, I've been learning vue (easiest to learn for me, I come from ML) to be able to quickly create MVPs for ideas I've had, do you have any tech stack recommendations, I bought your book MAKE, but just as a complement to it.

On the actual page: I agree that the idea of async jobs becoming I think, when I started thinking about where are we going I thought it might be more consultant focus services instead but this seems equally plausible, at the end maybe the trend is to be able to have a better life while working, and for companies to be more cost effective.

Congrats on your launch!

"The begining of the universe was the big bang" is an example of such fact. Now, this sentence can and must be reviewed but the index over "how did the universe began" would keep track of it in that hypothetical platform. So, until it's reviewal, the sentence can be recognized as canonical.

An approximation to this goal can be found in the page of 'papers with code' where you can see the SOTA for a given set of problems (I've used for AI) so the question "what's the most performant model for face recognition" can be answer and keep track of over time. It may not be comprehensive and I can only account for it's AI coverage, but it resemblance some aspects of the general idea.

Do you mind sharing references to read more about the approach in which you are framing the problem?

Also maybe if we limit the aspiration indexing statements whose veracity can change over time and be accepted by experts then we would only refer to that canonical reference instead of remaking the statement or questioning its veracity, might work (?)

I see this today in the exercise of making sure what you want to communicate (statements) has not been communicated before, but this exercise is not suitable if platforms reward repackaging information as content so there can be influencers/people profiting out of it.
