The post poses one argument: AI empowers learning and it's easier than ever to learn 80% of the useful things in 20% time.

We need to ask ourself the question whether "saving for later" is still a rational strategy in an age where more content will always be generated tomorrow.

Some read it for later is useless, but there is nowadays a chance to get personalized feeds with personal curation.

The act of saving for later is an illusion compared to learning or engaging.

Why do we keep saving content we know we’ll never consume?
What we are observing here is a societal pressure to consume endlessly, to be productive, enriched, and entertained.

How to break the cycle:

• two-minute rule
• 80/20 rule: sort content, only read high-quality articles for you
• schedule dedicated reading time
• one in, one out: maybe have a limited backlog size

Summarized to:

Fight for Pareto's law, look for the 20% of effort that will give you the 80% of results.
Prioritize, minimalism isn't about not doing things but about focusing first in the important.
Perfect is enemy of good, first do it, then do it right, then do it better.
Kill the baby, don't be afraid of starting all over again. Fail soon, learn fast.
Add value. Think constantly how you can help your team and position yourself in that field/skill.
Basics, first. Follow always a top-down thinking starting by the best-practises of CSS.
Think different. Simple is harder than complex, which means you'll need to use your creativity.
Synthesis is the key of communication. We have to write code for humans not machines.
Keep it plain. Try to keep your designs with few layers of indirection.
Clean kipple and redundancy. Minimalism is all about removing distractions.
