As part of trying to keep my job, I’ve been doing training in DevOps and in one course I took they mentioned a quote from Elon Musk:
“Great engineers most common mistake is optimizing something that should not exist.”
As I think about designing an artificial intelligence system that has a persistent data store, and living my every day life, I’m realizing that is a common mistake not only of great engineers, but most people.

In addition, if we think about our lives as construction of our own minds in a tightly coupled dynamic system, we must come to the terms with the fact that nothing is our greatest tool.
