High quality software, for one.

[Gergely Orosz @GergelyOrosz]

Talked with a software engineer working inside a Big Tech, who used to be on a product team, and now transferred to do GenAI stuff. Asked them why, and they said:

“Because what else is truly interesting/innovative in software these days? Take away GenAI: what is left?”

In which software engineers are too focused on the problem to realize they're digging their own grave. Investors love it!

Nat and I are delighted to be investing $100m in https://t.co/eeiussMa5F, which is building a superhuman software engineer.

If a copilot generates $10b of revenue, how much is a colleague worth?

[Dave @davepgreene]

@iprignano @CapriYeee @GergelyOrosz You're so close! If capitalism rewards companies for making the world a materially worse place for workers is that something we as a society should accept?

Collective punishment is not a Jewish value.
Genocide is not a Jewish value.
Murder is not a Jewish value.
Vengeance is not a Jewish value.

The Jewish thing to do would be to stop the massacre in Gaza and end the occupation.

No killing in my name.

I'm truly heartbroken. Life is full of distractions, but don't let them stop you from telling the people you love how much they mean to you. 💔

if you drop a chicken cutlet on the floor it absorbs all kinds of dirt & particles that make it undesirable. Thats sort of how AI works

@IanColdwater I saw this yesterday and still for the life of me can't figure out the threat. Dick is being decidedly cagey but what he's revealed is that it has more to do with Amazon slurping up site data from network scans which, honestly, it's Amazon so what do we really expect?

Tell me you haven’t read any of these books without saying it.

This kind of dev values themselves over anything an org has built, preferring to tear something down rather than try to understand why it was built in the first place.

They are culture killers and destroy any sense of psychological safety an org has created. Avoid these 10xers.
