Fortunately, this is not the end of my journey as a Computer Scientist, but there are specific things that I did not realize about Computer Science before I embarked on this endeavour, most important of which is this: Computer Science is 90% reading and understanding and 10% coding.
I believe it to be the most important thing I have learned about the field itself in the last 3 years.
Here is why.
Dealing with complex problems is hard.
Programming is all about solving complex problems, programmers live by optimizing our code the best we can, and try to find solutions to problems that we encounter while doing so.
While it is no doubt nice to have a working code that does something cool, or a solution to a problem that meets the specification, I don&rsquo;t think that is the mindset a programmer should have &ndash; that is, at this stage, to solve a problem is not about getting to a solution <em>somehow</em>.</p></description> - </item> - <item> - <title>The Island of Missing Trees</title> - <link>https://mjkw.pl/books/the-island-of-missing-trees/</link> - <pubDate>Fri, 07 Nov 2025 16:05:35 +0100</pubDate> - <guid>https://mjkw.pl/books/the-island-of-missing-trees/</guid> - <description><p><img src="https://mjkw.pl/images/the-island-of-missing-trees.jpg#floatright" alt="island-of-missing-trees-book-cover"></p>
<p><em>The Island of Missing Trees</em> is a fiction novel written by Elif Shafak with action set mostly in London and Cyprus and taking course over several decades between 1970s and 2010s.
It is a book full of surprises and historical insights into that period of time, specifically the Greek-Turkish conflict over the Cyprus island.
The main premise of the book, in my opinion, sends a message about how the actions we take in life echo across generations, and what might seem unimportant to us now can be defining in the future of others.
Two main characters - Kostas and Dephne - are from different parts of the island.
Kostas is Greek while Dephne is Turkish.
Both are deeply in love with each other during their teens, however arising conflict and tensions have a tragic impact on their relationship and families, which is what the book is mainly about.</p></description> - </item> - <item> - <title>All the Lovers in the Night</title> - <link>https://mjkw.pl/books/all-the-lovers-in-the-night/</link> - <pubDate>Sun, 28 Sep 2025 16:40:54 +0200</pubDate> - <guid>https://mjkw.pl/books/all-the-lovers-in-the-night/</guid> - <description><p><img src="https://mjkw.pl/images/all-the-lovers-in-the-night.jpg#floatright" alt="all-the-lovers-in-the-night-cover"></p>
<p><em>All the Lovers in the Night</em> is a book about a young, shy proofreader in her thirties.
Fuyuko Irie, who is an introverted shut-in, rarely interacts with other people and keeps things quiet and to herself.
As far as she can remember, all she ever did was work, get back home, somehow pass the hours before sleeping and go to work the next day.
A solitary existence, void of contact with other people.
This changes when a friend of hers, Kyoko, encourages her to quit her job and start working freelance.
Soon afterwards she meets Hijari, her contact person for new proofreading requests, and Mitsutsuko, a man in his fifties, with whom she starts to slowly overcome her anxieties and barriers.</p></description> - </item> - <item> - <title>Denounce AI</title> - <link>https://mjkw.pl/posts/denounce-ai/</link> - <pubDate>Fri, 12 Sep 2025 23:08:15 +0200</pubDate> - <guid>https://mjkw.pl/posts/denounce-ai/</guid> - <description><p>Recently I have read a blog post by <a href="https://www.jwz.org/">Jamie Zawinski</a> on <a href="https://anthonymoser.github.io/writing/ai/haterdom/2025/08/26/i-am-an-ai-hater.html">Anthony Moser&rsquo;s opinion</a> about the current developments in AI.
Now I want to try to formulate my own arguments against the overwhelming reliance on AI nowadays.
It&rsquo;s been my point of view for a while, however I would like to now clearly state why I think the direction the technology world is heading is wrong.</p>
<p>AI, although currently being hyped beyond reason, has been around since the previous century.
However, with the release of ChatGPT to the public, generative models have entered the lives of everyone.
As a Computer Science student I have first hand witnessed the effects of a paradigm shift in many domains, and after 2 years I believe that relying on content generated by artificial intelligence is simply harmful.</p></description> - </item> - <item> - <title>Lolita</title> - <link>https://mjkw.pl/books/lolita/</link> - <pubDate>Tue, 19 Aug 2025 15:11:46 +0200</pubDate> - <guid>https://mjkw.pl/books/lolita/</guid> - <description><p><img src="https://mjkw.pl/images/lolita.jpg#floatright" alt="lolita-book-cover"></p>
<p>Lolita is a very special book due to the sensitive subjects which it touches upon.
Masterfully written, it talks about taboo topics such as relationship abuse and obsession, and includes themes of murder, rape and pedophilia.
It has been widely regarded as a literary classic and masterpiece and included in some of the most prestigious book rankings in the world <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lolita">(see here)</a>.
A colleague of mine told me that she could have not read on until the end, due to the books narrative.
After getting into a discussion with her, I have decided to give the book a try.</p></description> - </item> - <item> - <title>Klara and the Sun</title> - <link>https://mjkw.pl/books/klara-and-the-sun/</link> - <pubDate>Sun, 27 Jul 2025 10:49:23 +0200</pubDate> - <guid>https://mjkw.pl/books/klara-and-the-sun/</guid> - <description><p><img src="https://mjkw.pl/images/klara-and-the-sun-book-cover.jpg#floatright" alt="klara-and-the-sun-book-cover"></p>
<p><em>Klara and the Sun</em> is a novel written by Kazuo Ishiguro.
Set in a far dystopian future, it tells a story about the relationship between Josie, a home schooled, genetically modified child and Klara, an artificial friend (AF) and companion to Josie.
It&rsquo;s a remarkable tale that tries to answer some of the most important questions we often ask ourselves:
<em>What makes us human?</em>, <em>What does it mean to be human?</em>
We encounter multiple themes throughout the book, but there are two which I would like to write about.</p></description> - </item> - <item> - <title>Useful Links</title> - <link>https://mjkw.pl/posts/useful-links/</link> - <pubDate>Sat, 26 Jul 2025 12:53:30 +0200</pubDate> - <guid>https://mjkw.pl/posts/useful-links/</guid> - <description><ol start="0">
