"... how can I get feedback on what I’m building on as fast as possible? when is the last time I got valuable feedback on what I’m building? in what frequency do I get feedback on what I’m building? why is that frequency so low?"

An internal Slack post I shared with the Amp team a few weeks ago:

If you are a junior eng (software), then please consider moving to a bigger city and applying to in-person jobs.

"It’s weird to consider that the next generation of programmers will never understand code at the deep level we do, because they won’t be forced to learn programming languages since deep fluency in them is no longer a barrier-to-entry for shipping working software."

"René Girard argued that human desire is mimetic: we want what others want, and we want it more when they cannot have it."

"People accept decisions they dislike when the process looks legitimate and the decider is accountable for the result."

Today in Silicon Continent I discuss two of the main reasons I expect "desk jobs" to survive: bundles and authority. I move the argument forward from "Strong Bundles, Weak Bundles" and discuss who exercises authority in the agentic economy. https://t.co/cbf5SldvTN

All of us should do something about it. Parents, teach children to respect and protect themselves. Men, report these "chats" if you see one. Women, be conscious this exist. Police, educate your workforce to treat these cases with respect.

New post w/ random thoughts on AI (thread)
I will probably get a # wrong, but here we go :)

1/12 OpenAI & Anthropic now at 0.1% of US GDP *each*
In a year, AI revenue likely to be 1-2% of US GDP

What does AI mean for US GDP growth? Does productivity get lost mismeasured a la internet era?

Yesterday I told a candidate "Using AI in our coding interview is encouraged" and his eyes sparkled.

That was cool to see so figured I'd write about how we interview expecting that you'll use every tool you can get

@ElCanalDFutbol No vale su validación. Y deshabilitan los comentarios en el tutorial, cobardes.

[David Callay @dcallay]

Me gustó su estilo de escritura: gracioso, personal, imprudente. Suena el tipo de personas con las que me gusta tener una amistad.
Además, no puedo imaginar lo doloroso que fue hacer el viaje y contarlo en el libro.
Gracias por tu historia. @AlmaDeliaMC
