> I buy people lunch and sit on the curb eating with them and attempting to understand them. I clearly don't have the same people on the street as you do. You should not be just si…

Because you need effort + the ability to create value, not one or the other. Some people have one but not the other and seek out help to bridge the gap.

You're also presumably not a $400m+ company, which makes it more intestesting.

> People are so caught up in the 3I/ATLAS stuff, for example. Should we beam a message to it? What should we think of it? It's a circus. Is it really a circus? Seems almost everyon…

They'd have to get through The Great Filter, so maybe they'd have avoided or have moved beyond some of our evolutionary downfalls.

I wonder if OP has some kind of color blindness that makes his examples make more sense? I am able to parse the status quo example way better than his ideas. My theory is helped by…

You can't just look at units sold, you have to look at net units sold because the version of the product existed. For example, if 5.9 million of those 6 million people would have b…

To be fair, AI isn't going to give us more time outside work. It'll just increase expectations from leadership.

> Passing a whiteboard interview doesn’t mean you are going to be a great fit for the job. It just means you can code. Did anyone say to only do a whiteboard interview?

It's so difficult though that it shouldn't even be in the same conversation as someone who has so far not been able to get to a healthy weight. It's telling a beginner that it's po…

That's not true. I tried getting unlimited data like 7-8 years ago and they said I needed a business account to get it.

Cleanup doesn't get me a raise or promoted. In a world with constant threats of layoffs, cleanup may even be penalized depending on what's rewarded. "Clean up your shit" doesn't wo…

That's why "problem" is in quotes. It's a self-inflicted and purposeful problem that trades a unified perception of Android through flagship devices for broad reach.

That's pretty reductive. Having enough money to buy "almost whatever" allows for real happiness to happen. Money doesn't buy happiness, but it opens the door for it. Family, friend…

> Not to sound like a tin-foil hat but odds of achieving something like this increase by the day. Where do you get this? The limitations of LLMs are becoming more clear by the day.…

Well at least now I've got you up to 2 teams being acceptable :)

> and a list of videos Are we just going to gloss over this like the list of videos is random? haha

Data? SMS limits? Am I misremembering the timeline of real access to SMS and data? I feel like most of the 00s most people had limited of both without spending a lot of money.

> I'm not sure why people are expecting a language model to be great at chess. Because the conversation is about AGI, and how far away we are from AGI.

"Ask for a non-trivial code or work sample, something they have written." I haven't written non-proprietary code in a decade.

There are plenty of allyship opportunities at big companies. Or at least, there were. I don't really know the status of some companies after the current political environment start…

> Why are you invalidating their experience What experience are you talking about? What resources are lacking that don't address those experiences?

Well, most other groups have had a rough go at it throughout recent history, and often have to approach the workplace differently because it takes a long time to reverse some of ou…
