Design Patterns by Gang of Four is one of my favorite books. It was well structured and easy to read and reference. I remember when copied each pattern manually to learn them and reference into a pattern repo in Java.
A couple weekends ago I felt inspired and I've build a research ingestion pipeline that uses AI to filter Arxiv for better quality research and filtered the best ideas that repeat into a sort of executive summary or ethos document. This document now guides all software projects I begin.
I would like to share and I hope you find it useful too!
Yes, there are a lot of controversial takes on "AI" and many have merit. LLMs may not even be the most useful AI tool, at least it's unlikely the best to simulate consciousness. I find LLMs to be useful tools and try to learn to use them more efficiently and appropriately. They're just fancy. token calculators after all.
