But everyone at the company has that private domain knowledge. The only thing you're bringing to the table that anyone in any other role doesn't offer is the commoditized skill set.

I view the issue of inefficient communication as a problem that will wane as LLMs progress, and a bit idealistic about the efficiency of most human-to-human communication. I feel strongly that we shouldn't be forced to interact with ch

There's also no hope of creating a web that is resistant to enshittification and power consolidation as long as it can technically support any form of economic transaction.

I love postgres and it really is a supertool. But to get exactly what you need can require digging deep and really having control over the lowest levels. My experience after using timescale/tigerdata for the last couple years is that I

I started to write a logical rebuttal, but forget it. This is just so dumb. A guy is paying farmers to farm for him, and using a chatbot to Google everything he doesn't know about farming along the way. You're all brainwashed.

> These things are average text generation machines. Funny... seems like about half of devs think AI writes good code, and half think it doesn't. When you consider that it is designed to replicate average output, that makes a lot of

I think both sides of this debate are conflating the tech and the market. First of all, there were forms of "AI" before modern Gen AI (machine learning, NLP, computer vision, predictive algorithms, etc) that were and are very valu

I think it's a matter of public perception and user sentiment. You don't want to shove ads into a product that people are already complaining about. And you don't want the media asking questions like why you rolled out a &quo

Anyone who runs ads on their website has a financial incentive to publish content publicly while blocking LLM trainers

Seems to me that the obvious business model here is that they will need to have their AI inject their own ads into the DOM. Overall though, this feels like a feature, not a business.

You're neglecting the fact that the affected customers paid for FSD and never got it.

I worked at AMZN for a bit and the complexity is not exactly arbitrary; it's political. Engineers and managers are highly incentivized to make technical decisions based on how they affect inter-team dependencies and the related corpora

You might not like the tone, but I don't see what makes the words false. "Paramilitary" describes a non-military group behaving similarly to a military group, and we're talking about armed masked men sweeping homes, taki

Interesting. I've been remote for 5 years across three different companies, and if anything I've had the opposite experience: my remote coworkers are far more responsive than my on-site coworkers, who are always in meetings, in tr

I'm not convinced that the immaturity of the tech is what's holding back the profits. The impact and adoption of the tech are through the roof. It has shaken the job market across sectors like I've never seen before. My think

Your comment warrants a post in its own right: let's rank FAANG/M by evilness. Personally I've always been way more afraid of Google, because Microsoft's evil is just old-school capitalism, which is blatant, brash, and h

It is a web app, though. You just aren't running the server, OpenAI is. And you're packaging the front end in electron instead of chrome to make it feel as if it all runs locally, even though it doesn't. Side note: I don&#x27
