Huh? That’s quite the assertion. They provide the infrastructure for Anthropic, so if that’s not large scale idk what is.

That’s far from the truth..

I’d argue it’s the opposite. Good documents are far more important when everyone can generate garbage.

Reading comments from the appropriate VPs will illuminate the situation.. Swami is looking to democratise AI, and the company is geared towards that more than anything else. Disclaimer; I work for amzn, opinions my own. https://a

At least in Europe I have a lot of trouble finding companies paying me as much as Amzn does, and it’s not even close. Perhaps working for American companies remotely will change that view, but it’s too much a hassle for me at the moment.

Immigration is not the problem. The problem lies on the kind of people we allow in and who gets to get welfare.

My grandfather looked in his 50s and had more mobility than 50 year old men well into his 80s it’s only when cancer got to him that he started looking his age. I’d sign up for that.

I am not critiquing the engineers… we are all rational agents looking at the data that we have in front of us and try to make sensible decisions about our lives. I am just blaming society in that it doesn’t seem to prioritise “good” and “us

I can't say that about my job; I am providing tools for engineers to use and making things better. As part of my job I am expected to contribute to CPython, and rustc among other things.

Exercise for the reader; stay a while, and listen. Once you start noticing things changing, try to identify how you could profit off of it. If it's a change, then there's profit to be made somehow. Any anecdote is a potential lead

Reality is far more sad. Companies like JaneStreet, 2Sigma, etc employ some of the best software engineers, mathematicians, physicists and what not just so they can - have better weather forecasts to identify whether a 1 degree delta

That’s a very tired position… the irony of it all is that this view is also simplistic and unworthy of HN. How about we do better and say trying to steel man the claim and then refute? Of course one has to understand the claims before they

In a group, you’d usually let the freshest handle splitting the bill because everyone else forgot arithmetic.

I’d caution against taking simplistic views and recommend peaking behind the veil. Id start by looking into the deportees, people like Abreco Garcia — working men and women who contributed to their society, and all those who received pardon

That’s fair criticism. I only corrected the hardware aspect of it all.

I don’t think that’s true. AMD’s ****X3D chips are evidence that’s not true, with lots of benchmarks supporting this.

Not sure what you are talking about re amzn. I have a pretty high end MacBook Pro, and that pales in comparison to the compute I have access to.

Leadership is looking to provide infrastructure for anyone to just pick a model and get on doing things without the hassle of setting things up.

At amzn a decision from atop was made that nobody would ever write in shared dynamo db tables. A team would own and provide APIs. That massively improved reliability and velocity.

I use protonpass and it’s great, carried across all my devices and browsers.

I am not critical of them, I am critical of the state of society, that we value ads and moving money around more than anything else.

The brightest minds are often paid to optimize ad revenue and move money around.

There's been a spike in news articles on the invasion the last couple of weeks. Given that the US appears to not hold on to any alliances or assurances, and ~~incontinent~~ incompetent in chief is on the helm, it seems that they'v

It’s worth reading 0 to 1, it outlines Thiel’s views on startups, which can be illuminating on his broader views. He emphasizes that sales and distribution are just as important as the product itself, and he is particularly blunt about the
