I never understood the "low code" microbubble that was being inflated. We went through that era already. We called them RAD tools, and they targeted the same sort of strange, mythical end user profile. Someone so…
Sure, though I'd ask more open ended questions about a problem to see where they go with it. Maybe they land on using something like a debugger or wireshark or strace or whatever makes sense to dig into whatever…
The "nano" questions are silly and tell you nothing useful about the candidate other than I guess their level of candor in being subordinate to obsequious lines of questioning. However, the rest of the questions are…
I would destroy that thing with sweat in the first 30 min.
They never had any meaning to begin with. Outside of ostensibly knowing how to program, the title carried with it no firmly held, measured, or maintained any baseline expertise of any kind. It's always been a hodgepodge…
Alternatively, it might make capital available to other things. It's at least theoretically possible that all the liquidity and leverage in the top of the market could tire itself of chasing the next tulip mania. For…
It's okay to say it. It's a bubble. It was just the next in line to be inflated after crypto.
Sam Altman is not a hapless victim at the mercy of the isolating effects of his financial success. He was an opportunistic, amoral sociopath before he was rich, and the system he reaps advantage from strongly selects…
I would have loved a control question like, "How much confidence do you have in confidence?"
I wouldn't even know how to answer the question as presented in the poll. Confidence in higher education to do what?

Just have people pair with people doing actual work. It's better signal for the candidate, for the existing team, and for the organization.
Now that's not really fair is it? They're also Sales, Marketing, and Channel Partner Management for OpenAI.
Once you're running a fleet of autonomous vehicles, whatever century that finally becomes a reality, then it makes sense to optimize out of the operation a few people who make at or near minimum wage.
That's not why ZIRP happened. ZIRP happened as a long-term back-channel bailout to all the banks & funds holding the downside of the housing & derivatives market collapse. It allowed the financial sector to reinflate…
I spent all of ZIRP while it was happening being bothered by this. It was insanity inducing to watch huge valuations and associated piles of money chasing the most banal and/or impossibly ridiculous ventures for YEARS.…
FWIW… look at the portfolio pages of lots of VCs. They’re absolutely filthy with boring companies with boring products that obviously have absolutely no prayer whatsoever of being a “venture scale” business. Despite…
Get a cheap Intel ARC A310 card. I have one in my workstation along side my AMD GPU purely for streaming/encoding. It works great.
Yes. It has all the telltale signs of a FOMO-hype bubble across multiple asset classes that's driven by multiple organizations cynically exploiting a combination of Gell-Mann Amnesia effect and human propensity to…
Maybe. Dunno. Depends a lot on so many things. I mean, I'm excited about doing another startup after this one using everything I've learned about how I actually want to be spending my time and what kinds of…
Thanks. Appreciate it. I'm probably fortunate that I came to grips with that whole end of things 20 years prior to work-induced burnout. I can probably safely credit the experiences for both the relative ease with which…
I'm a VC-backed founder who's definitely burned out. I know for certain what caused it, and I know for certain when it became unrecoverable, and I know for certain that I charged ahead deeper into it anyway because I…
> And people _love_ this sort of structure because it means that something other than actual competence can be the deciding factor. It's different competence. Not incompetence. It's being competent at identifying marks…
Let them go. Provide a respectable severance, since it's the company's fault they were hired in the first place. One of the most cost effective and humane things you can do is extend their health benefits out further…
