<p>Here in Orlando two large builders bought about 90% of downtowns empty lots (and several older buildings) promising new high rises in 2022, then threw in the towel after evicting all the tenants and now most of Church street station is completely empty. Of course local government had put nothing in the agreement about time frame of completion, what happens if the builder gives up, etc.<p>So now, all of it sits abandoned, no construction started, and now its not even worth building as they claim "down town is dead".<p>This is likely the fate of that land, a write off until its so valuable they can sell it to someone else.</p>

<p>Had to have this conversation with a Sr. engineer two weeks ago.<p>Took the entire code review, put it into Claude and then responded in GitLab.<p>80% of the issues were trivial, only 1 was a minor problem.
The post was like 10,000 characters long, including explaining the change.<p>Huge waste of everyones time.</p>

<p>I will never leverage GCP in an enterprise setting, it's honestly amazing how hard they fumble the bag. Will be interesting to see when GCP support started working with them, from the updates there was an hour and change from when they identified the issue and GCP support was confirmed.<p>In the cloud space it seems like AWS does nothing and wins.</p>

<p>Moodle also scales to pretty large schools, I work on an instance that is over 27k students. Integrates with pretty much every platform, authentication, etc.<p>And it's pretty easy to customize which is nice.<p>Throw it in an auto-scale ECS cluster and you have something that goes from 100 students to 20k easy.</p>

<p>For a time period I worked for a pharmacy management company that offered both in patient and out patient cost reduction.<p>The model we operated on was we kept 50% of all cost savings that we attained for the hospital or health system, on a multi-year engagement. This was just supply chain management, cost optimization, manufacturer relations, pharmacy changes etc. No change in patient care.<p>The hospitals saved money, we made money, everyone left happy.<p>The types of deals from the article are more or less what happens when the leadership at a hospital gets bribed at golf, hire some consultant to come in and fire people and not hold anyone accountable for any negative outcomes.<p>I will never understand why any organization would sign a deal with a consultant and not require an outcome by the end of the engagement (in this case, cost savings). You are quite literally signing up to burn money.</p>

<p>Article is incredibly fear mongering.<p>Twice in my career the owners of a company have wanted to sue competitors for stealing their "product" after poaching our staff.<p>Each time, the lawyers came in and basically told us that suing them for copyright is suicide, will inevitably be nearly impossible to prove, and money would be better spent in many other areas.<p>In fact, we ended up suing them (and they settled) for stealing our copyrighted clinical content, which they copied so blatantly they left our own typos and customer support phone number in it.<p>Go ahead, try to sue over your copyrighted code, 10 years and 100M later you will end up like Google v Oracle. What if the code is even 5% different? What about elements dictated by external constraints; hardware, industry standards, common programming practices, these aren't copyrightable.<p>Then you have merger doctrine, how many ways can we really represent the same basic functions?<p>Same goes with the copyleft argument, "code resembling copyleft" is incredibly vague, it would need to be verbatim the code, not resembling. Then you have the history of copyleft, there have been many abuses of copyleft and only ~10 notable lawsuits. Now because AI wrote it (which makes it _even harder_ to enforce), we will see a sudden outburst of copyleft cases? I doubt it.<p>Ultimately anyone can sue you for any reason, nothing is stopping anyone right now from suing you claiming AI stole their copyleft code.</p>

<p>The issue making Claude just not do any work was infuriating to say the least. I already ran at medium thinking level so was never impacted, but having to constantly go "okay now do X like you said" was annoying.<p>Again goes back to the "intern" analogy people like to make.</p>

<p>Every resume I get now is a 90%+ match and then you interview them and it's clear they don't know anything claimed on the resume.<p>Do not use these, I can smell AI resumes from a million miles away and instantly discard them.<p>Best advice I have for people is hand write your resume in a visibly clean layout, and tailor it to the job. Do not use bots either because they make dumb mistakes like leaving markdown in, or submitting 15 seconds after the posting comes online.</p>

<p>I am 90% sure it's looking at month long usage trends now and punishing people who utilize 80%+ week over week. It's the only way to explain how some people burn through their limit in an hour and others who still use it a lot get through their hourly limits fine.</p>
