These people have arguably contributed nothing to society for over a decade (and maybe even made it worse in some instances) for very fat salaries, and yet they’re being praised for being the example of best engineers.

I periodically use their websites and they’re horrible!

Seriously, we should know better as the dev-tech society.

And I don’t give a darn about their research that is being built on top of barely legal mass surveillance so don’t tell me their contributions from stealing data were helpful.

I’m not sure whether that’s a feature or a bug at this point though.

It’s been 2 days and it made no real progress on the actual app. It created docs, scripts, workflows, and it’s doing a bunch of reviewing on every PR.

I told it that I just need an MVP.

I’m pretty sure an average senior engineer would have finished that task much quicker, and guaranteed with more readable, higher-quality code. Meanwhile, I think I’ve easily crossed 100k tokens so far on nothing.

Funny world we’re living in that this is “SOTA” and “AGI”.

I’m genuinely curious what these OAI and A/ engineers are working on that they praise these models so much. I did not see any improvement since Opus 4.5.

Also, I’m really unimpressed by any “one shot” demo that’s out there in the wild. It means nothing for serious software engineering.

Gosh I hate that idiotic marketing.

I can’t believe virtually every other manufacturer is still making laptops with 250-300 nits.

Spending a full day looking at a dim, washed-out screen is just the worst experience ever. The fact that out of all manufacturers, Apple, which is considered the “expensive” and “premium” brand, made the Neo with 500 nits at that price point is just amazing to me. The rest have no excuse for putting these displays in laptops anymore.

I didn’t like the second part though where it starts banning people for “bad behavior”.

I get that AI resistance will be a thing in the next few years, but realistically engineers who plan on being around for the next 20-30 years just need to embrace it instead of being sour about it.

Because of machines, things have arguably improved for humanity as a whole. People who seek more elevated/finer products can still turn to handcrafted products.

Mass software will be produced by AI, and it will scale just fine.

It’s no fun, but these are adults (and often very privileged adults) that decided to move to a new country for more upside at the cost of no residency.

Conflating this with “inhumane” is just a basic misunderstanding of immigration and the contract these people signed up for.

Very uncomfortable, yet a risk these people took, and hopefully a conscious one.

Cause they seemed to be just fine selling that land.

Also “ignoring the partition”? Literally the day the partition was adopted, the Arab league attacked Israel. 6 nations to 1, yet Israelis outsmarted them all (which is why you keep hating us).

But I suspect you know nothing about Jews besides social media.

Next thing you’ll say we’re not native to that land right? We only lived in the middle east forever, but our food is cultural appropriation too, right?

But it’s also October 7 that made the average joe even more extreme in their opinions.

Just check the facts about each and every government in the middle east.

Qatar is spreading fake information and is funding Hamas as well as anti-Israel classes in major US colleges.

If you don’t trust Netanyahu then you should disregard the link you shared as well and that just strengthens my point.
