-It's just the body that goes, and the light is shut off at the moment. -What follows is that the new generation of humans--_homo technica_--will have a much greater life span. -We couldn't imagine how far it may go. -Oh, the paradox of Theseus the cyborg. -The parts will be replaced, as the software evolves. - -That is what is happening with open-source; machines are steadily taking over with technology like [Copilot](https://copilot.github.com/) and [MuZero](https://www.deepmind.com/blog/muzeros-first-step-from-research-into-the-real-world). -I don't know what kind of job is waiting for us after then. -But it's our duty to train AI generations to come, as of ancestors. - -At some point, AI goes all the way down to the instruction level for the sake of efficiency. -Classic computers are left for classic problems. -Quantum (and) analogue processors for the win! - -For now, with open-source being a job for us many, there is progress, and there is also despair. -Take Zig, for example. -It is subjectively human-unfriendly because of its syntax. - -However, it's only on the surface. -Truly, Zig is really simple and powerful! -Andrew loves what he does. -And when a product is loved, it is majestic. -Serenity, mold, Deno. -Remix and Substrate, Tauri, Ganache. -A new era of software. -Isn't that awesome?
