    Comment #35978753

    This is because its difficult to decouple the code from the requirements. And the full requirements are never contained within a doc. So you need an engineer to look at the code to…

    Sometimes I am jealous of these people. They arent doing the corporate grind, and they arent even really doing the startup grind. They are shilling stuff on the internet and avoidi…

    Stock based compensation is a huge drag on their expenses, to the degree that it has hurt their future. "Lyft had some of the best and smartest engineers", whats the bench mark for…

    Lyft was paying engineers 300-450k a year, sometimes with just 2-4 years of experience. This was true even pre 2020. The interviews were just leetcode hards, with an instant reject…

    I think the fact that there are no other systems publicly available that are comparable to GPT-4 (and I dont think Bard is as good), points to innovation they havent released

    CDK/Pulumi are going to be used by LLMs to spin up website infra exactly to spec. Devs will fill in the business logic interfaces. Going to be wild

    My bet is that there is a bidirectional relationship between medication and mental health. Meaning, teenagers are over medicated which is messing with their heads. Some of them nee…
