Spending my time drinking coffee, tea and remembering to put myself down every single time I make a post on HN. You know, so I get a normal decent conversation from some thin skinned gatekeeping neckbeard burrowed deep inside a 6 figure FANG company who is not doing his job, yet clearly winning at life.
Sorry. I promise Ill get some therapy.
PS - If you are reading my profile because you are cross with somethign i said please rest assured, I have no idea who you are, I was only making a counter argument. You can downvote my comments but it has no affect on me, just reply with a clarification or a better argument and I will likely concede.
Just asking for a friend
This was now years ago, but the thing is when I raised this, it should have been triaged immediately. Clearly there were now cracks that needed fixing, people that needed disciplining / firing / and processes corrected.
Yes I know this woudl have been for "small business" but in my mind , this is indicative of a ROOT issues, like a hairline crack in a windscreen, that if not addressed end up with the utter fragmentation of trust both outside ( in smaller clients), INSIDE ( not doing their job, ganging up), etc. Years later the bigger clients start to get affected. I guess what I mean is institutional rot.
Now take into account there are people through the chain of command who are smart enough to realise but effecting change will just reduce their returns or job security ( like with the old tesla hardware setups) , so unless they are completely selfless for the sake of the company due to greatitude or long held stock, its just not worth the grind to try and correct.
The question remains, if google works, it works. And it has, for decades. Its magnificent. Sure I was burned but I can forgive them for that. My question is if there are powerful people who want google to succeed it would only take one good hire to keep an eye on things before they get out of control.
My suspicion is that perhaps that will organically come about with the advent of their own LLM tooling organically starting to do this for them .
So I guess I have no answers, perhaps they will find a way. I was certianly impressed by Gemini.
Sorry for the long possibly misdirected spiel.
However I take your point I could have taken more time to explain certain points.
What on earth are you going on about?
My first suspicion was when you started taking about metals. Bro salmon are euryhaline.
You have no idea if its viable and profitable to remove certain organs, and its based on the incorrect premise that the fish have the metals in them, the ONE type of fish that has the lowest concentration of metals in existence. You literally picked the worst possible , weakest possible argument that could have existed, somehow defying all odds, ( which tbh is an achievement in itself) before your apparent non coherent jargon laden word ramble.
I need my coffee now.
Did anyone think to try this with excel? or notepad?
I appreciate your feedback but my point is the delineation between "hey guys screw this guy he used AI" is getting harder and harder with each passing day.
As for me, I personally have been using "variants" of AI tooling since I studied AI about 30 years ago. So i dont know man.
One might think it was naive and odd for me as a young autistic person to be so scared and negative, but sure enough, the next day the best contractor in the company was fired at 9am for calling the CEO an "alright c*nt" during the pub crawl.
The C word being used a token of affection around these parts, was perhaps not the true transgression which was, not to understand, that it was NOT a social function, but a horrifying legal flexing of soft hierarchical power, for purposes of satiating C suite ego, and humiliating everyone beneath them.
