When I was younger (50ish now) I could juggle full time work with side projects but I just can't now, especially with family demands. Full time work is pretty much burning me out. I'm close to leaving and starting a…

I hear you. You're frustrated. Some people are having success with it. What have you tried to do with it? > Humans can be held accountable for their own slop If you're a human and AI writes code for you you are…
Who cares? I obviously didn't like the article. > Schemes were all wrong Why'd you let him run wild for two months? What software org would let anyone, even principle do that? Wouldn't the very first thing you'd do is…
Agreed. I never considered myself an "engineer". Honestly just a regular code monkey. Software Engineer was just my job title. Folks higher up the ladder did engineer software. You know what? It sucked. Was always…

I know of a publicly traded company which in its early years was built on beer. Literally. 3 guys in a co-working space in Cambridge, MA. Beer fueled their progress. 15 years later the software is still the backbone of…
I worked for a company that sold b2b contact data and they had (maybe still have) a linkedIn extension. It basically enriched the linkedIn profile. I wonder if linkedIn is trying to block these, or heavily target, in…
When i was first laid off during the dot com bust I was working on a sales floor. All open no cubes. We didn't know layoffs were coming. Manager walks in and taps this one guy on the shoulder, says grab your personal…
We really do love dirty laundry don't we? I'm sure whatever the context is, it is deeply personal. Do you also have your popcorn ready?
While crazy to us, I bet we're in the minority. Average computer user might actually like it or at worse (to MSFT) not even notice it. Their web experience is bombarded with "1 weird trick" ads everywhere.
It was truly a wild time. All the books desperate for action in this new online gambling world (US). I went from book to book, took "advantage" of their promos, never collected a dime. When I was up, I bet more. Hit…
At this point I question whether they should even be allowed to advertise.
Great article, thanks for sharing. Reminds me of here in the states during early covid. Betting on darts in some Eastern European league knowing full well the fix could be in.
The marketing is what bothers me the most. These books market very aggressively in app: Take Daves 5 leg parlay; Share your picks! 30% profit boost if you do a 4 leg parlay that'll never hit. Its constant engagement.…
Gosh - I thought I was bleeding edge with my instructions to codex, with all my .md files and such. Lots more to learn!
Why even deploy such systems? I would support less for sure.
There must be some level of acceptable failure.

I'm curious what you've used it for? I was firmly in your camp until about a month ago when i used codex to dust off an old side project. I hadn't touched the project in six months. This was literally my first prompt:…
I'd argue you still have to stay engaged, if not more-so. Its a different type of engagement. Look at you: You're the CTO now.
I still write code but do not push everything off to the agent. Try my best to write small tasks. ~20% of the time I have to get in there. If someone says they're absolutely not writing a line of code they must have…
