Episode notes

In my opinion, the world benefits from simple and predictable systems at the bottom that you can control. But then once you have a predictable execution layer, you can build lots of different policies on top of it. And so one policy can be that the human programmer says, do that here,Do that here, Do that here,. The other is to fully manually controls everything, and the systems should just do it. Right. So I mean, in my opinion, this is an opinion. This is not a way to agree with this."
