  1. TIL about "#ComprehensionDebt — a hidden cost to human intelligence and memory that results from excessive reliance on AI and automation. It is the growing gap between how much code exists in a system and how much of it any human being can genuinely understand. It can lead to teams not being able to explain why design decisions had been made or how different parts of the system are supposed to work together. The debt has to be paid sooner or later, and interest accrues rapidly."
