I have no idea, but this type of scenario is just one of many, many reasons giving an LLM free access to a browser on the open internet sounds like a terrible idea.

Which "LangChain situation" are you talking about? Anything specific, or just everything that's happened in the past year or so?

Can you add in the missing words that make this comment make sense, please?

Excuse me? Amazon lost more money in one day than most companies have in revenue, from dropped orders. I would say that matters. Believe it or not, the systems we work on do things…

I've tried that. They don't have anything for me.

Unfortunately, I have a visual-spatial processing disability. You don't want me near anything mechanical, and I can't do visualization-based tasks because I literally can't visuali…

What would that look like? In my experience, real production codebases tend to have lots of bugs. Most of them never get prioritized, because features matter more than fixing obscu…

Are you willing to wake up at 3 AM when that "valuable" AI-written code pages on-call? I agree there is some value in AI tools, but implementation details do matter. People shouldn…

I actually considered that, myself. The thing is, California is where the jobs are for me. If I move out of California, I may never be able to come back. That could cost me a lot.

I don't think anyone mentioned comparing AI error rates to a base rate of zero. What has been mentioned is significant numbers of clinically significant omissions, and outright hal…

I thought along those lines as well. The only thing I could come up with that would be semi-viable was medical school, and I"m not sure I'd survive residency. I definitely would ne…

Huh, weird that you can't reply. I'm tailoring my resume to individual postings a good portion of the time. My "default" resume is by ChatGPT; it's essentially my human-written res…

I'm fine with "not big tech," along with a "not big tech" salary. In fact, I prefer "not big tech." My cost of living is not absurd for the Bay Area. I'd even be willing to take a …

Bay Area, 9 YoE primarily backend, US citizen. I'm familiar with AI coding tools. I've done real work on real systems.

I mean, I am. How else would I know nobody wants to interview me? :)

I'm asking myself the same question for a different reason: nobody will even interview me. I've been out of work for a while. Savings are running out. I apparently don't even know …

I can certainly imagine such a world. I don't use Brave because I don't want to support Brendan Eich.

The ghost of Milton Friedman speaks!

I don't know what world you live in where an arbitrary and illegal price increase on essentially everything is "just."

No shit. I've made that mistake before, not gonna try it again.

I'm speaking to what I know. Sue me.

Like I said, that's not the same. It's not comparable in terms of stakes, or expected outputs. You're not addressing the issue.

Mental health conditions can be disabilities. Again: are you saying you discriminate against people with disabilities?

I'm gonna stop you right here, because I never said any such thing: > We don't. The simple solution is to stop maintaining the illusion that 100% perfect hire is possible.

Yes, it is artificial. Everything about a live coding interview is artificial. Code doesn't get written in 1 hour blocks while someone's watching over one's shoulder, all the while…
