What I got was, be more generalist and become a polymath.

My thoughts below

This means, we need to read more to produce more in many different fields, and domains.

The idea is also captured in today's top 10 article, "To become a better writer, read as much as you can" (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49405870) where if you want to produce good writings, read more.

Reading more here means, familiarizing/learning/understanding many different fields/domains.

I have never heard of "DWARF files, eBPF," and at least reading gave me an idea on what to learn about, so that when I work on projects, I can consider them by guiding AIs to even consider them.

Until today, I'd never woulda have though to even consider "DWARF files, eBPF,".

Now I can dig deeper into them and see what they are, and at least know what they used for and how they are used in practice.
