I think the senior -> staff certainly could require a concentrated effort to mke that leap in a lot of situations so don't doubt I was luckier there. But again I never took on work with the thought "this will help me reach staff" it was always "this will help the company" or "this will help my team" which is the distinction I was trying to make

I don't think I got lucky I think you got unlucky. My experience at all 5 bay area tech companies I have worked at has been the same in this regard

Don't disagree with that. If you have the luxury seek out the companies that aren't like that. Obviously easier said than done but they are out there

I'm a staff engineer and I haven't thought about trying to get promoted a single day in my life. Do good work and be nice the rest follows

Because without those labs to distill from the pathetic Chinese labs wouldn't have anything. Im not impressed by them copying US labs not sure why you are. But go off ccp bot

You mean all of the frontier models that the Chinese distillation clones are copying? Yeah kinda cool imo. If a dashboard showing training for a model that doesn't even come close to anything us labs have released in 6 months is "cool", then you're a loser

Haha yeah pretty wild how easily you can see the data is fake by the repeating numbers (refresh the page the progress goes back in time constantly) + watch for restarts. They say they happen but 0 data correlates the log messages. Just a replay of old data or being fed by an llm so they convince people they are open

This is so very clearly fake? See the message stating the flash 2.6 flash run was restarted and 0 graphs correlate that restart

Lol cool so health care is your definition of "radical" and "decisive". Hint: it's neither of these things and the only reason it was considered as such was because Obama was black (see tan suit). Seems like we need a few more years of woke cause you still can't see the obvious

I would love to hear what was "radical" or "divisive" about Obama's policy. A significant portion of the country disliking him because of his skin color doesn't make his policies "radical"
