Garry Newman seems like a really real guy.

Isn't that the point of agents?

Assume we have excellent test coverage -- the AI can write the code and ensure get the feedback for it being secure / fast / etc.

And the AI can help us write the damn tests!

If you're hiring, I know an enthusiastic boot camp grad that loves ruby and can't stand react.

My company has a react team somewhere, but not ruby...

As long as we all agree that Facebook is one of the most meaningful and useful contributions to society, then yes, capitalism determines ideal value.

You missed it. He was saying that amortized costs are cheaper, but poor people can't pay the upfront costs.

This is a pretty apples and oranges comparison. Suppose it takes 30 people to maintain the ship. 70 people are working on it, mostly doing administrative work that makes them feel important. 10 people decided to fuck off and form a band, but honestly we kinda like them. 10 people developed space sickness and are useless. 5 people snuck on board accidently and got shot into space and nobody really liked them anyway. And the final 5 keep talking about their start-up, whatever the hell that means.

We'd jettison them, but we kinda want at least 70 people to run the ship and we have supplies for 100 people that honestly just burn sometimes.

My dad shut off the internet when he went to bed every night. At 7:00-8:00 PM. I presume so I would sleep? 'Videogames ruined your life' was what I heard constantly.

For a while, I had a timer click it back on and off. At some point I learned kali linux just enough to crack the neighbor's WiFi. There was also the time my BIOS was locked, but I found out there was a jumper circuit on the MB that reset it.

I'm now a very successful software engineer with a long history of devop experience. Shrug

Same, but outdoorsy stuff and I had to quarantine with a family member in Houston. I basically went from top 10% athlete level to feeling like a total couch potato. I just went back out this week and it's gonna take about a year to get back.

Relationships are really important outside the business setting too. Often much more important.

Something that a lot of people in the business setting don't seem to understand.

My work friends are just that... work friends. I have to hide large swaths of my personal life from them and they don't usually stick around outside work. Work relationships suck.

Fuck you, I hate cities. Now I can live near the people that are actually my friends and don't have to drive 5 hours every weekend for my hobbies.

I think it'll be okay! ;)

Maybe, but lava tubes are also really boring. Can see we do the karst stuff on Mars?

I'd agree with the hypothesis that a PhD let's you hang out and get paid to do a lot of math. My brain is pretty spent from writing code -- I don't have time to spend doing more math.

So for me, I get stressed when I have less control over my work / time / etc.

The less you make, the more they tell you exactly what to do, when and how to do it and you lose flexibility. There's no trust.

As I've moved up, I'm largely trusted to know what I'm doing. I can basically set my own hours, do what work I think is impactful and nobody really checks in on me. Some days I accomplish very little and nobody cares, other days, I accomplish a lot.

Bonus points in that I have tons of employee protections (I wouldn't be fired without at least a large severance) and I have so much money saved that I don't need to work for long periods of time. My healthcare is covered and my living finances are less than a quarter of my base salary.

I don't know if Denver has any food it's known for. Maybe craft beer?

Mountains are the thing.
