Technology definitely will not. Fundamental knowledge may be resilient in the face of change, but the skills you need to cultivate to navigate that change and operate effectively in society and business are evergreen.

Learn how to reason about problems from first principles. Understand how back planning works and how to apply it to a project. Cultivate your communication skills and build a habit of constant learning.

Learn about critical thinking and logical fallacies. Build heuristics you can use to evaluate ideas with incomplete information.

These skills will serve you well long after any technical knowledge you have expires.

Thank you, I really like that idea of developing “meta-skills”, if you will. Learning how to learn, critical thinking, clear communication, evaluating ideas with incomplete information, first principles thinking, and so on.
