This is the 9-month recap of my "The Future Belongs to People Who Do Things" talk.

Inside:

- The problems with AGENTS . md

- The problems with LLM model selectors

- Best practices for LLM context windows

- AI usage mandates at employers

- Employment performance review dynamic changes

- The world's first vibe-coded emoji RPN calculator in COBOL

- The world's first vibe-coded genz compiler (CURSED)

and a final urge to do things, as this is perhaps the last time I deliver this talk. It's been nine months since the invention of tool-calling LLMs, and VC subsidies have already started to disappear.

If people haven't taken action, they're falling behind because it's becoming increasingly cost-prohibitive to undertake personal upskilling.
