It's not about being attached to interview strategies. It's about the fact that some people only copy/paste and aren't effective up to basic standards. I bet you'd consider an answer pasted from Stack Overflow and m

I already do that a lot lol. But I do buy new tech, being in the industry.

You don't have to guess if someone is entering the job market for the first time. You can just look at their resume. Interview skill is not some monotonically increasing quantity. It very much depends on how the question hits you and w

Actually they do work like that. Engineers can be asked to solve problems in interviews. But the pressure doesn't seem like in software, where many people complain. There's no LeetCode equivalent for other kinds of engineering I t

Using ChatGPT as a tool makes as much sense as allowing a human assistant to take the exam with you. In an open-book test, you have to know what you're looking for and roughly where to find it in the book. That implies some knowledge.

Your hypotheticals are all extremely unlikely. People who ace interviews are usually good, and people who lean on stuff like ChatGPT aren't. I'd also rather not have someone dumping massive amounts of ChatGPT output into a good co

>As an interviewer, if a candidate can use chatGPT to give a better answer than other candidates, I'm not gonna mark them down for use of chatGPT. I think that makes you an incompetent interviewer, unless your questions are too hard

No, it's not what they want. If they wanted you to use a LLM then they would tell you that up front. It's also too new of a technology to be required anywhere. Hardly anyone I know is even trying LLMs to begin with. Then, what do

The problem is probably in processing and storing the helium indefinitely. We might wish we had the vented helium in 100 years or whatever. But unless it can be retained until the time it is needed (a fundamentally unprofitable venture to a

If the resources are so mismanaged as to lose money, the taxpayers have to pay for it. The government with all its vast resources could put most businesses out of commission because it has no obligation to be profitable. What if helium is c

I almost never wear graphic tees. But to me it seems like there are people too shy or uninterested to ask about a generic cartoon character on a shirt. The name doesn't have to be so bold, but it shouldn't be in fine print either.

Why would you make a t-shirt without the company name fairly large on it? Especially when you have aren't a household name yet. It's weak advertising...

The trouble is, companies exist to make money. Even if you have control of a company and don't care about profits, everyone else does. That's the whole point of shareholders overruling CEOs. I don't see a difference between t

What are you talking about? Copyright was created to solve real problems for people who create things. Patents too. We could argue how much protection people should get but at the end of the day it makes sense that the people who put in wor

I see what you mean. Propane conversions are way less intrusive than EV conversions. Propane is not very heavy or bulky, and you can use the same engine in many cases. I'm no expert on it but that's what I've gathered. I thin

FUD is a bit dismissive of the risks. Yes, I am afraid of unextinguishable fires spewing toxic gasses, battery explosions, being trapped in a wreck, huge repair bills, and getting stuck somewhere on the road. I am uncertain because the medi

by wakawaka28 3y ago
Most people in the world don't have garages. Even if they have one on the house they live in, there may be more cars in the family than can fit in the garage.

With a gas car, you can take off on foot and walk to a gas station or call literally anyone to give you a bit of gas. EVs on the other hand have to be towed if they run out. Also, it is far easier to predict how far you can get on a tank of

Off the shelf kits exist. There are also people who specialize in installing them. I think these kits don't take off because the people who are car nuts do some research about what type of performance can be expected from a conversion,

EVs that catch fire are impossible to extinguish. EVs that are involved in accidents are recommended to be stored 50 feet apart and monitored by thermal cameras due to the tremendous risk of battery fires. It is not economical to fix EVs at
