mkrishnan··on Man uses flowpilot on Redmi Note 9 pro to drive Alto K10 in India
Seems like reckless thing to do. someone who knows about Indian road conditions, this is not an acceptable thing. You might kill someone or some family in this drive. Please don't try it in public road.
mkrishnan··on A study of Google's code review tooling (Critique)
Critique enabled such an outcome. Critique is designed to provide control to dominating individuals in the team to do what ever they want. Critique is super lethal when team leadership is very weak.
mkrishnan··on A study of Google's code review tooling (Critique)
critique is a worst tool I have ever used.

example 1: - a engineer caused multi-million dollar loss in ad revenue due to change which passed review with flying colors. and he is the only engineer whose name ever put in a post mortem document. - same engineer few months before this incident forced a junior engineer to waste 2 months by making him to stupid nit picks. after a month of addressing nit picks, the junior engineer showed a slight resistance. then this engineer removed himself from the review list (but this engineer is the only one who is not manager in that code owner list) and made the junior engineer to beg on his knee to provide approval

example 2: - a engineer in my team in double click ad always puts tons of nit picks. he got easily promoted.the justification gives but the leadership that the engineer created extremes value. the leadership was from double-click acquired by google few years ago and they are extremely in-competent.

example 3: - there is a tool in google which analyses code review comments and those reviewers are very argumentative are given badge that they are very throw in review and I have seen those stupid badges counted during promotions.

mkrishnan··on If crypto is “scam”, why Fidelity and Blackrock are trying with ETF?
Yes, as long as they have an opportunity to make money, they will leverage it.
mkrishnan··on If crypto is “scam”, why Fidelity and Blackrock are trying with ETF?
Well, BR & fidelity want to boost their revenues. Their revenue is commission on the trade. they don't care that they are trading as long as they get their commission.

mkrishnan··on ChatGPT vs. Bard: A Realistic Comparison
I think this comparisons cover use cases of 99.9999999% of people. As you said, if you are using bard, you will be forced to Google it anyway. Bard is just designed to be not helpful.
mkrishnan··on Angular v16
non-sense, very tiny piece was in Dart ever. (top menu was written in Dart and thrown away as soon as angular came)
mkrishnan··on Angular v16
doesn't looks like really you did. :)
mkrishnan··on Angular v16
correct.
mkrishnan··on Angular v16
Every verb googlers use start with 'f' when they talk about Dart/AngularDart.
mkrishnan··on Angular v16
Total non-sense. 0% of Google Ads is in Dart/AngularDart there was 0.00000001% of Google Ads frontend was in Dart many many years ago.
mkrishnan··on Angular v16
Every project in google uses angular. Probably the most commonly used tech inside Google is Angular. So rest assured that Angular will be there forever. On the other hand I doubt flutter's future, mainly due to its reliance on Dart, Dart was extremely hated inside Google few years ago. There was even AngularDart at some point.
mkrishnan··on Angular v16
this v16 is quite interesting due to signal. you'd like it.
mkrishnan··on Angular v16
angualrjs is a good framework btw for decent business use cases.
