I was up at Harvard a while back, and a very nice young guy, he picked me up at the airport, a Harvard Business School attendee.”

And he said, “Look. I went to undergrad here, and then I worked for X and Y and Z, and now I’ve come here.” And he said, “I thought it would really round out my résumé perfectly if I went to work now for a big management consulting firm.” 

And I said, “Well, is that what you want to do?” And he said, “No,” but he said, “That’s the perfect résumé.” 

And I said, “Well when are you going to start doing what you like?” And he said, “Well I’ll get to that someday.” 

And I said, “Well you know, your plan sounds to me a lot like saving up sex for your old age. It just doesn’t make a lot of sense.” – Warren Buffett

I run a small federal contracting business, and when a contract modification required me to start reporting sales order-by-order instead of as a monthly summary, the concept was overwhelming. Instead, I opened an LLM, uploaded my invoices, described my problem, and built a fully automated Python script in a single afternoon that reads my invoices, maps them to the correct government fields, and spits out an upload-ready compliance report. What used to be a manual headache that could’ve taken hours is now a 30-second task, and I didn’t write a single line of code. Amazing! – Dad

I am a cook and I know there is no America without immigrants. There is no food at our table without immigrants. There is no farm without immigrants. There are no kitchens without immigrants. – Chef José Andrés
