lol. Sure they are. Totally massive skills.

I suggest it is not the gardening but the sun that is giving this benefit.

I hate workday.

At my firms I saw this happen often. HR would review, or a junior engineer and pass on very good candidates. It wasn't until I set up a review system with A-class engineers that we started to catch the best people. A-class engineers recognize themselves far better than anyone else. But they prefer to build than review resumes.

I ended up building my own head hunting firm specifically to address the whole pipeline. That helped somewhat but head hunting is its own very odd space. Full of inefficiencies and bias.

With any AI company, there are always limits you hit. Energy, compute, optimizations, inference, team resources, money, and all the flows to make it a company. HR is usually the one that gets the fewest resources.

I think the issue is that some applications are not even reviewed. HRs can also learn the expertise of identifying strong candidates if they build up the experience and frequently talk with engineers about pros and cons of resumes.

Sheesh. 12B. Here I am working my ass off for $25M.

Chamath's new company 80/90 is targeting this pain. Large firms often have no idea what their software is trying to do. Rebuilding it is cheaper and leads to better software.

That title is very misleading. The facts are convoluted as well. This is a mix of greed, espionage, incompetent government agencies, and companies that do not vet their remote workers yet giving them access to software and data they shouldn't have. Crazy. But with the stories coming out of DOGE, I am not even shocked. At least in this case one person (out of how many?) is going to jail. How many more of these people exist in the US now?

I'm curious about what's coming out of DOGE. All I've seen is lies and incompetence on the part of DOGE.

Same. Thought this was just another tax scam.

Vibe coding for me meant a roll-the-dice approach to building something that world. Never a care for strong architecture or good code standards. Allowing anyone to become an "engineer". A friend of mine, who can't code, used Cursor to build fully functional Nextjs web apps. I was impressed. Vibe coding is a super power for average people.

I do think this article fully grasps that change. Using AI to do tasks is not vibe coding. At least to me.

When will the first vibe coding book come out I wonder?

Hahaha. I had one and look at that I worked in robotics and AI. Never realized that before. Toys do have impact, don't they?
