Makes sense. The "Flying cars" were not used literally in the post though but rather as a way of expressing the more interesting things we can build.

Looking for a new role has been harder than ever, at least for me personally. I've been looking for a year now and noticed that a large number of companies advertise roles which weren't meant for hiring and this manifests as non r

Yes. Heavy curation and high quality content and journalism, from humans to humans.

What does responsibility mean? How does it translate to actual work and skills?

That's the best thing I've read in months if not years.

I really think we are modern slaves in a pseudo-liberal capitalistic wrapper. It's going to become clearer to future generations looking back, similar to how we are now able to detect and understand mistakes of the past. Male toxicity

I think that's spot on. The timing is good too as recently Meta published a new music generating AI agent which was trained on music outside of the public domain. IP concerns are up in the air and it looks like Neural Nets can be fed w

I see what you mean and you're not wrong. However given that you hire good senior engineers and that you trust them, most companies can resolve these issues. Coordinating activities is a project manager's thing which should have t

Apparently this is a junior person's blog promotion and hence the controversial (or plain wrong for me) title which has raised several discussions here. Since we are talking about it though, let's apply the 5 whys: 1. Why do comp

"very little European culture makes it into American culture" LOL, I love Americans and America but seriously? Like what is already there is not enough :D

That's implementation details. It could be the case that no art produced in the EU can be used as training data (or similar), not necessarily that EU AI models are forbidden from being trained on art. I find the former case the most pr

"That being said - it's happening, and nothings going to stop it" Well, the European Union is already working on a legal framework for AI. It happened with GDPR and it will happen again.

That's very interesting, any sources?

I may as a composer be biased but AI "generating" music is just sad. The hypocrisy is that musicians have been suing each other for intellectual property reasons, while this thing is being trained on everyone's music. The law

There is no excuse. One way or the other it's really bad management. You may not realize it but 7% is a massive piece of the pie. Why did you hire those people Gitlab in the first place? The macroeconomic environment isn't tough,

I can assure you that remote work is here to stay for good and that managers will get a real job in the long-term :)

I can share how much I'm paying for renting a shithole in London with you if that makes you feel any better :)

Just do an optional text update for f** sake. If you don't trust your people, don't hire them in the first place.
