Engineers that have the audacity to think they can context switch between a dozen different lines of work deserve every ounce of burnout they feel. You're the tech equivalent of wanting to be a Kardashian and you're complicit in t

Who knew managing a team of ten occasionally brilliant but generally unreliable engineers would be so draining.

It's not that our identity is grounded in being competent, it's that we're tired of cleaning up messes left by people taking shortcuts.

Writing the code is where I discover the complexity I missed while planning. I don't truly understand my creation until I've gone through a few iterations of this. Maybe I'm just bad at planning.

My tinfoil guess is archive.today is compromised by a state actor. Simply shutting it down would cause too much drama. Instead turn it into villain, and then take it down.

Now I'm curious... How the hell do you synchronize clocks to such an extreme accuracy? Anybody have a good resource before I try to find one myself?

What does synthetic training data actually mean? Just saying the same things in different ways? It seems like we're training in a way that's just not sustainable.

I don't understand why we need more data for training. Assuming we've already digitized every book, magazine, research paper, newspaper, and other forms of media, why do we need this "second internet?" Legal issues aside

I'm working with product managers that are almost certainly using LLMs to generate product requirement docs, complete with code samples, data type definitions, and diagrams. Everything looks good to the untrained eye, but it's com

I think they all lost a little something when Ryan suddenly died.

You're not wrong. I think people just like to feel like they're doing their part, even if it's not actually a net benefit.

That could be true, but maybe OP's goal isn't making a positive impact on the global scale.
