If you add the initial HR call, that’s 5. The difference between that and the 7 is the chat with CEO and CTO etc. 8 step offer, a no or a low ball. A complete waste of time.

It happens to candidates! Let's not forget what we have to go through, 6 or 7-stage interview processes, that requires a lot of preparation, as if we don't deserve the time to have a life too. Fake jobs, scammers, dodgy "take

Maybe they want to build their own cloud infrastructure, host open source models themselves as an inference service provider?

Just curious, given the $113M investment, and the state of the economy as you described. Why don’t you build it then?

"Daily Mail" is an embarrassment! For example, naming Nuno Loureiro in these conspiracy theories is shameful; he was killed by an ex-colleague from IST in Lisbon due to jealousy.

They have a lot of users paying to track their listening habits; I'm surprised.

Originally, it kind of worked like radio; it curated music for you, you could like, comment or skip tracks. It'd reinforce the algorithm, and you'd start finding great artists. I liked the Blues catalogue a lot, even though I was

Last.fm used to be special, but this was a long time ago. Just tried to login, recovered the password and seems that its just a tracker nowadays. In the past I could listen to music and drop a comment, meet new people, etc.

I bought three Harley Benton models across the years. Fender is much better quality!

Consequently, one of the most popular projects in the web today just merged a single thousand of lines PR to main successfully without having to go through human comments and nitpicking! Do you understand what this means?

by punkbit 5mo ago
Makes sense! I’ve worked with teams where the main bottleneck wasn’t technical complexity or even the company itself; it was a people problem. Things like long discussions over formatting that should just be enforced by linters, pushing non

Thats true, but the author might have decided on its own. Not everything is a marketing plan.

Wow! Is there any good read on that, like even if a "YouTube" show or something? This is quite interesting.

Are you sure? Can you share some of those companies that are desperate to hire talent right now? I'd like serious teams as I need to find work. I do keep an eye on HN, Wellfound, Workatstartup, X, etc.

Cloudflare has never made a profit? The thread commentator said the product he maintained was 95% profit.

"Management consultancies" that make sense. I thought that maybe all these higher-up people know each other and share a common "Slack group"

I believe they meant that the cost of using an LLM is extremely high! There are reports of people spending USD $500~1000 a day! There's the possibility of decoupling of effort and output! Which causes an illusion of work.

Gosh... The job market is already brutal for many candidates, especially people who aren’t social media personalities and don’t have names like Cloudflare, Meta, Amazon, or Google on their CVs. Some people will end up homeless... At least h
