What's in the book
The second collection. Essays on why general methods keep winning, what survives the next order of magnitude of compute, and the uncomfortable question of which of your hard-won engineering advantages are about to be made irrelevant.
Scale beats cleverness more often than we admit. What that means for the moat you think you’re building.
