This perspective is more of a confession about the current state of employment in big-tech, less so than engineering in general. There are plenty of places outside of FAANG where you can just be a butt-in-seat,…
I wasn’t trying to say one was better or not, just different. Californians wrap up a large amount of their retirement savings in their houses though, so keeping those home prices high is important to them and that’s a…
>For most Americans, A house is their primary savings account This is true for California, where people (foolishly) rely on their home value as their retirement plan, which further incentivizes NIMBYism. But in places…
You have to build your weaponry ahead of time, obviously :)
War isn’t that simple
lol
If one of our main adversaries is building these weapons already, this is actually an argument for developing this technology ourselves.
I think they are negotiating until Friday, but I agree. I think this was foolish.
Many people here might be in a similar situation to me, but I took an online masters program that allowed for continuing education following completion of the degree. This has become one of my hobbies; I can take…
So much of my professional SWE jobs isn't even programming - I feel like this is a detail missed by so many. Generally people just stereotype SWE as a programmer, but being an engineer (in any discipline) is so much…
Thanks for the article - that was an interesting read. A creative take that I see some merit in
is this just a purchasable version of Borg? kubernetes on steroids?
Is there a way to instantly, quickly prompt it in the terminal, without loading the full UI? Just to get a short response without filling the terminal page. like to just get a short response - for simple things like…
I wonder what the incentives are here. I am a FAANG engineer with a clearance - but would gladly serve my country in a role if the pay cut wasn't so severe
Exactly. Let's not forget the real attempts at the government's internet censorship of previous administrations. Nobody seemed to care about that then. Like give me a break. The previous admin took steps towards…

exactly exactly - I already want to buy one lol.
Or put a few 6 axis arms on a track that goes throughout a home and have an instant home assistants
A message on LinkedIn or email never hurt!
A previous company I worked at was using mixed reality years ago (>4) to train manufacturing operators on manufacturing processes. It ended up looking like a simulated workbench with low-detail models of CAD parts that…
Very cool!
This is my favorite kind of 'full stack'
It is a big deal! While just landing on the moon is definitely much simpler than a Mars mission, this lander is a part of the Artemis program; it's one of the first steps towards developing the Artemis base camp on the…
Fritos too!
While the Sora videos are impressive, are these really world simulators? While some notion of real-world physics probably exists somewhere within the model, doesn’t all the completely artificial training data corrupt…
