   This is my own personal experience as a senior engineer. I hired my first ever intern for myself this past week for a personal. Rather than expecting someone who is experienced to knock out tasks or whatever & try to justify the expens

   Open source models are not immune to a different form of restriction either. I recently learned that China is restricting travel for AI engineers living in China. https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/china-r

   I visited the Philippines in December and January and it was great. The highlight of my trip was learning to scuba dive in Mindoro. Highly recommend a visit.

   My experience has been there’s more “what did it make and does it work?” overhead. It’s like a junior developer throwing stuff over the wall and I’m responsible for seeing if it sticks.

   It’s a list of the 500 largest profitable companies. Gotta make some bottom line $$$ to be included. At least that’s how it’s worked in the past.

   I’m guessing the Neo attracts a lot of new Apple customers, many of which will become subscribers of higher margin Apple services & apps in the App Store.

    It’s not hard. You give them mentorship and time. Even as a senior engineer, I’ve found it difficult to get assistance at times from team members. Everyone is more focused on knocking at tickets for tomorrow’s standup, and there’s a disi

    I’m an American living abroad. I know a bit about this. Here’s my experience: - The USA passed a law called the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA), which mandates that any bank doing business with Americans overseas must report ce

    I learned the hard way that I couldn't just ship a laptop to myself from the USA to Mexico. I had a nice, new-ish Macbook Pro that I wanted to use sitting in the USA, and the laptop I was using in Mexico was getting old. What I shoul

    You can build things quickly with AI, but you can’t delegate your responsibilities to AI. Once the AI starts struggling, you’ll need to takeover and figure it out.

    I haven’t used Prolog, but I have a little experience with Erlang and a lot with Elixir. As I understand it, the early versions of Erlang were inspired by Prolog. For those with familiarity with both Prolog and Erlang, can you comment on

    Pretty much! A precedent-fueled prediction engine can’t predict the unprecedented.

    The more I use AI, the more I find it’s great for anything trivial and uninspired. Need help with some predictable glue code? AI. Need help with something insightful and new to the world? Not AI. Need help with an important task that’s

    Ha, it’s like a service asking me which ads I’d rather see. No ads is never an option.

    I don't think the now or never thinking is healthy, but I certainly understand the motivation. I myself have never really fit into a career path climbing the corporate ladder, and entrepreneurship is a skill that takes time to develop

    For those who remember Digg, the recently relaunched a new version and shut it down almost immediately. They were getting hammered with AI bots when it was realized the Digg apparently still has good SEO. The explain it right on homepage.
