Every single major AI player at the moment is designing chips with some getting close to their first tape out. Including OpenAI.

I’d agree that most humans are not pathological power seekers; however I believe that’s exactly why we end up with successful pathological power seekers. Like the world is learning…

I remember in the 2010s reading about them and also reading that there are de facto hierarchies within Valve for given projects, even if they aren’t explicitly laid out.

This exists; they are called sprint races. Sprint races are generally a stepping stone to the bigger leagues because it doesn't require the same type of manpower and coordination t…

Your definition of "learning" is incomplete because you're applying LLM concepts to how human brains work. An LLM only "learns" during training. From that point forward all it has …

Elon's father is/was a certifiable monster. I'm not sure he's the reliable narrator that you're setting him up to be.

I don't think they believe collusion isn't happening. I think the argument above is that democrats are one of the drivers of building restrictions, leading to the ability to collud…

This test is actually fairly well validated. The purpose isn't to specifically diagnose your problems, it is to find the floor for how much trauma you may have experienced. Sure, s…

ACE of 6, father of 3 under 7. I love fatherhood, but it is easily the most difficult leap of faith I've taken in my life. A majority of my coping mechanisms were based around quie…

If you don't mind me asking, what is your blood pressure with this abnormality? My gut feeling would be that it you have a much larger gap between your systolic and diastolic numbe…

I think that it instead amounts to a strong argument that many apps simply wouldn't exist if Electron didn't lower the barrier of entry.

> What seems much more likely to me is they offered unlimited storage as a competitive feature of Google Workspace thinking it would still be profitable even with some customers us…

That argument that GP is making isn't that low prices are bad for consumers. The argument is that amortized over the lifetime of the business, the prices are actually significantly…

I mean, the timeframe was also important there. Yes, that 16 months makes a huge difference right now. That's the exact time that I basically walked through my interviews to 6 offe…

It's clear that you haven't had to get an interview from a non-connection in the last year. It's a literal fucking nightmare unless you have connections that can literally hand you…

The amount of value I get out of your service is nuts! No better place to figure out whether a multiplayer game is worth getting... Daily users is hard metric to game or lie about.…

My observation of rental car companies is that they have figured out how to run on absolute skeleton crews. I rented one earlier this month online. When I showed up they handed me …

Which is also why a vast majority of software companies have "unlimited" PTO. It allows them to have no PTO on the books.

If you're not employed and you want the best comp you can get, you should treat it as a full time job. My last job hunt was probably ~40-50 hours a week for a month between wrangli…

The parent comment died while I typed my response, so I'm just throwing it here to elaborate on your comment: I'm not Indian, but I read a lot about this when the Cisco stuff came …

We've definitely considered it! Unfortunately both of our families are from the same area and it is very high CoL. Not only parents, but grandparents, siblings, aunts/uncles all li…

Unfortunately in most industries I think you're right on it being a part-time job. Software engineers (myself included) are a pretty spoiled bunch! Thanks for sending that link alo…

I think you underestimate how heavy the hand of regulation and administration is in certain districts and schools. She gives out a little as she can without having admin intervene …

This is great advice! We're pretty on top of our finances so we have a decent (but finite) runway to get everything figured out. My wife is a VERY driven person, which is the main …

Thanks for the reply! We've had long discussions about all the options (one job + one stay at home, moving to a cheaper area, part time, etc.) but both of us at the end of the day …
