I agree. Tenures may be short but careers are long and tech is (surprisingly) small. Credibility builds trust and trust between people is ultimately what business run on. "Do right be people" is a good strategy.

fellow co-founder here! One fun thing about this project is the entire frontend was vibe-coded using Bolt in a few days.

This is a pretty cool idea but I'm trying to think of the advantage of WASM vs other execution engines.

It seems to me one of the main use-cases for WASM is to execute lambdas, which are often short-lived (like 500ms timeout limits). Maybe this could have a place in embedded systems?

I never really thought about this perspective but in some ways it makes sense. I think the ironic part is that LinkedIn now provides built-in AI tools that make you sound more like a bot.

Maybe they could fingerprint slop generated with they tools and allow it through to incentivize upgrading

Commenting code and generating documentation.

I like to copy entire python modules into the context window and say something like "add docstrings to all methods, classes, and functions".

You can then feed the code into something like sphinx or pdoc to get a nice webpage.

I've found them incredibly useful for writing Dockerfiles or other bits of infra config like K8s yaml

One area where this absolutely makes a difference is when embedding python. Like it or not Python is extreme popular in data/AI/ML so if you want to build an experience where users can deploy custom functions, removing the GIL allows you to more efficiently scale these workloads.
