Sure, sure.

No, I mean, it's just an example of kind of how do you, the typical person, how do you describe what a color is?

Or there are these numbers that describe what a color is.

Well, it's worth, if you're an eight-year-old, you won't necessarily know, it's not something we're born with to know that colors can be described by three numbers.

Right.

that's something that you have to, you know, it's a thing to learn about the world, so to speak.

And I think that, you know, that whole corpus of things that are learning about the formalization of the world or the computationalization of the world, that's something that should be part of kind of standard education.

And, you know, there isn't a, you know, there isn't a course, a curriculum for that.

And by the way, whatever might've been in it just got changed because of LLMs and so on.

Well, you know, so one of my projects for hopefully this year, I don't know, is to try and write sort of a reasonable textbook, so to speak, of whatever this thing, CX, whatever it is, you know, what should you know?

You know, what should you know about like what a bug is?

What is the intuition about bugs?

What's intuition about, you know, software testing?

What is it?

What is it, you know, these are things which are, you know, they're not,

I mean, those are things which have gotten taught in computer science as part of the trade of programming.

But kind of the conceptual points about what these things are, you know, it surprised me just at a very practical level.

You know, I wrote this little explainer thing about ChatGPT.

And I thought, well, you know, I'm writing this partly because I wanted to make sure I understood it myself and so on.

And it's been, you know, it's been really popular.
