I did a very hack job version of this as your question got me curious, but again, not at all a rigorous test. I took my resume and had an LLM re-write the exec summary, then changed the names of the business to comparable ones and gave one

Yeah I had a giggle about that also. He argues: “cloud abstractions are the wrong shape”, then what they actually ship is: a different abstraction, with even more hidden constraints. I'm very curious how they deal with subscription lev

Reasonable people can disagree - I think you made some good points, I've been sitting for the last 20 minutes wondering where the DoF at 32 on a 100 runs out, maybe you're right I'm not 100% sure. The prompt I did mostly to s

As far as I recall it stared in 2014 or so, yes metrics could/were still gamed, but there was still a belief in VC that OSS projects could turn into Red Hats. First I heard of it was when a VC told me they were "looking for the ne
