To grow Expert Generalists we need to focus attention on fundamentals rather tools. As an example, Unmesh, Gitanjali, and I describe a workshop we've used to break silos of application development, data engineering, and devops

We have two crucial checkpoints for spotting — and then nurturing — expert generalists. Unmesh, Gitanjali, and I look at hiring and career progression.
One key reason why the Commodore 64 was so successful in the 80s was that it was able to do things it wasn’t designed for. Freezer cartridges, which allowed stopping any running program or game, applying cheat codes and resuming, or saving the complete computer’s state to disk so it could be continued from later, were one of those clever innovations: They were possible on the Commodore 64, but not on many other computers.
A Commodore 64 with a good cartridge was a significantly more capable computer than a Commodore 64 without, this did contribute to the longevity of the computer and is one reason why the Commodore 64 could remain in production for more than a decade.
However, because the Commodore 64 wasn’t designed at all to support freezing, a cartridge has to exploit quirks in the hardware in order to achieve its functionality. The C64 feature that is essential to freezer cartridges is the so-called Ultimax mode.
