Is Brian here? Can he speak more to this? What exactly are non technicals shipping to production code?

I've got no position in Coinbase but is that a wise thing to say as a public company? I'd be alarmed if I were a share holder

X post from CEO – https://x.com/brian_armstrong/status/2051616759145185723?s=2...

This stuck out to me > Non-technical teams are now shipping production code

Would love to know what sort of feature non technical team is contributing to

> Every leader at Coinbase must also be a strong and active individual contributor. Managers should be like player-coaches, getting their hands dirty alongside their teams.

I love this! Ive never understood managers that can't contribute

Interesting. Some companies have rolled it out to every department with a small budget.

I wonder how this will end as AI becomes more expensive to use. If you can't quantify ROI then I guess you're cooked.

Just checked. They have 162,000 employees. So thats like 18% cut?

I don't even know what that company does. I'm sure it's valuable for a reason, just never understood what they do.

Edit: Google says they sell Database software. OK.

I personally haven’t used open claw due to security concerns on my device.

How to mitigate this concern?
