_jae_··on Ask HN: What (programming) skills will still be relevant in a year?
Why do you think so? I do have the impression, that once GPT code interpreter is open access, there is a huge part of data science that will be automated. I think in many cases it will be 'enough' to have subject matter expert without much data science knowledge to 'get answer out of data'. e.g. https://twitter.com/emollick/status/1657050639644360706?s=20

Looking at some examples of GPT Code Interpreter that people have posted, you can see that you can e.g. without knowing much about Python generate a great data analysis from just a dataframe using AI.
_jae_··on Ask HN: Anything an ordinary person can do to support civilians in the Ukraine?
Thanks for sharing!
_jae_··on Ask HN: Anything an ordinary person can do to support civilians in the Ukraine?
My main reason for not wanting to support the government is actually that I do not want to support warfare in any kind. I consider myself a pacifist and thus don't want my money to potentially indirectly finance violence (even if its 'against the bad guys').

Ad government support: My main reason for not wanting to support the government is actually that I do not want to support warfare in any kind. I consider myself a pacifist and thus don't want my money to potentially indirectly finance violence (even if its 'against the bad guys').

Ad media: Agree - everything is biased. And also agree that there is not one 'western media', nonetheless, I believe that there could be relevant information on this conflict that is not easily accessible via common media outlets. Also, I am definitely pro-Ukraine but these things are never just black and white.

Thanks for the suggestions!

Ad Donations: So far that is the only viable thing I see. I guess its more a philosophical discussion but a bit unsure 'how far to go'. I am already regularly donating part of my income to charity and just recently graduated university - so donating more money to Ukraine would force me to make my current lifestyle cheaper (i.e. reducing the times I go for coffee, eat out, trying to reduce consumption overall) which, compared to what Ukrainiens are going through is obviously only a small sacrifice but on the other hand also feels a somewhat radical thing to do? Maybe I am just too much immersed in our capitalist society that lacks solidarity?

- Ad car: Unfortunately no car and quite far away.

- Ad Foreigner Legion: As mentioned in my question I explicitly don't want to support Ukraine army. I will, under no circumstances pick up a weapon to fight in a war.
