good skills for the future: adaptability and resilience. i think these are learnable! hard to answer the question of ‘what jobs will be safe’, but humans always find new things to do, and the future will likely be amazing. embracing change will be important.

Last session I made a prototype of a tool that acts as a sort of shopping cart 🛒 letting you grab up a bunch of assets and see their total co2 emissions... might explore some better UX for filtering / smart selecting assets from the DB
