There's a form of architecture so difficult that no country has seriously attempted it... ...Except Ancient India! Let me tell you about "Rock-cut architecture," the difficulties involved, and how India did the impossible...over and over again. Thread:

And no, I don't think I would learn faster if I went back to college now. Nothing has changed. Learning was, is, and always will be a matter of individually, in solitude, sparring with challenging ideas. The task of "wrapping your head" around something is no easier because of AI

"faster, better, and deeper" but faster doesn't imply better and deeper. rather the opposite: depth demands slowing down, sticking with thorny ideas until you find the rosebud, letting go of the obsession with efficiency and speed
