This is exactly why experienced software engineers are valuable and will be valuable.

If you don’t know what good code looks like you will have no idea if what the models generate are any good

Of course “AI reviews the code” etc etc… it doesn’t work as reliably. Via @mitchellh

I understand most people are looking for 0 to 10 with AI and beyond.

But, man, 0 to 1 has never been so cheap! And it unlocks so much!

It does feel it requires a mind shift to be less prescriptive. But it's worth it. It eliminates busy work and saves energy for what matters.

DeepSeek foi lançado e a Nvidia caiu demais, mas no longo prazo ainda vai ser necessário um número gigante de GPU, certo?

Basicamente a taxa de crescimento da demanda no curto prazo é diferente do esperado, mas no longo prazo tem uma tendência a não mudar.

@AkitaOnRails Eu não concordo nem com algumas ideias que tive a 5 minutos atrás, imagina de qualquer outra pessoa. Pra mim não é estranho a pessoa chegar nesta conclusão.

Estranho é ela chegar nesta conclusão sobre uma pessoa específica (ex.: vc) e colocar isso no YouTube com tom de crítica.

Loved this framing of really taking Full Ownership of Your Career vs. Expecting to find “magic pills” with Mentors:

> “I see countless young people lament that their careers can’t move forward because they can’t find a mentor; I think their careers aren’t moving forward because they labor under the delusion that anything other than constant self-directed study and effort produce advancement.”

> “A great mentor is a wonderful asset, in every respect similar to a pet unicorn. Your expectation should be that mentors of any kind are hard to find, and good mentors ten times as hard, which means that you should never look to mentorship to be the engine of your growth—you should expect to teach yourself.”

> “Good mentorship can be wonderful for the .01% of engineers who find it, but in all likelihood, you are going to teach yourself 99% of everything you’ll learn as a professional; great projects may fall into your lap once in a blue moon, but more often, you’ll have to find your way to them yourself.”

> “Here’s the most important lesson in this whole book: you need to own your own career, because no one else will guide you.”

Meanwhile, during the onboarding class for ex-OpenAI employees at Microsoft...

"And here is the Microsoft Teams, this is the main tool that you are going to use right now... please, don't use Google Meet anymore, you know what happened last time...

Right Sam? Greg?"

Agora a coisa está ficando realmente séria. A guerra Apple vs Facebook vai ser interessante nesta área.

Here's my conversation with Mark Zuckerberg, his 3rd time on the podcast, but this time we talked in the Metaverse as photorealistic avatars. This was one of the most incredible experiences of my life. It really felt like we were talking in-person, but we were miles apart 🤯 It's hard to put into words how awesome this was for someone like me who values the intimacy of in-person conversation. It gave me a glimpse of an exciting future with many new possibilities and fascinating questions about the nature of reality and human connection ❤

If having most employees working from home makes it harder to have meetings, companies may actually be more productive.
