If I see ONE MORE AI slop blog post, I’m gonna scream. Maybe not scream, but at least unsubscribe from your posts. Then loudly and overconfidently decree that blogging is dead. That said, I have a lot of uncorralled thoughts about the tech industry that I’ve been asking a lot of friends, peers, and colleagues to pick apart. I’ve been picking the brains of EMs at other tech companies, and their thoughts range from “I want to burn the whole thing to the ground right now” to “AI has empowered so many people to move faster, take risks, and do more.” I don’t know specifically where I land on this spectrum just yet.

Since I’ve spent the majority of this past year in not-America, I’ve tried to travel to places I’ve never been, now that I’m already out-and-about.

So about a week ago I made a goal. I feel like I know the public transportation system like the back of my hand now, since I take the metro everyday. I know the names of every single metro stop, and I have the schedules down reasonably well too. However, this has caused a few holes in my education of the city of Budapest. Since I’m always in the metros, despite hearing about all the metro stops from the cool female voice above on the intercom (in Hungarian), I actually know very little of what these metro stop locations look like above ground! So, I made a pact to ride the metros and get off at every stop to look around (even if it’s just for a few minutes) this week.
