Interview overview#
Gergely Orosz of the Pragmatic Engineer and I sat down and had an incredible chat. I really enjoyed talking with Gergely. He’s a great guy. And we gave ourselves a goal: to spend the entire time talking about computing without mentioning “AI” or talking about it. As the list of items linked to below attest, we covered a ton of ground and although there were feints towards “AI”, we succeeded in our goal.
