You are right GPT-4 doesn't support fine-tuning but, I think (in general) people might be misunderstanding what fine-tuning does.
I also believe that corporation will do literally anything to make a profit - including slavery - and the only thing that stops them from doing so is because they stop being profitable. Knowing this allows the consumer to pressure the company to align with their values or loss their business.
You can't replace an entire infrastructure, this large, overnight.
I think there were suggestions about Time being an aspect of a principle. I wonder if this would be better represented by the SDLC stages, something like this might address the "time" part that allows it to be associated with type of work being done. Just a thought. I also wonder, at the same time, if this is too burdensome for a team or individual to do. Establishing your principles, IMHO, should be the most important thing you do, if you use them to guide your behavior.
I also have hope that when people establish what their individual principles (that define them) they then can ensure when they are job hunting or self reflecting on their current job that they what they are doing is aligned with who they are to ensure they will be satisfied in that role/job/company.
I just bookmarked the site. Excited to see this grow.
I hate this and also, I don't use their service - same for facebook.
The challenge I see a lot of managers have is that they look to much at an engineer as a widget and not literal human that is just as capable as the manager (most the time). There are often times no lines between roles and responsibilities and every shop does that slightly different, and not based on some framework they masterly put together, but just something based on how the pieces fell in place with some help from previous experiences.
I just wanted to say also - _most_ engineering managers are not good managers. They were good engineers that are in the unfortunate process of the Peter Principle.

I'm curious about your thoughts about an internal questions I had in my head.
What is different from this than say hired labor for picking up produce or something to that extent?
Is it worth it? Is it better than just having a whiteboard next to me? I feel like most the time I use the whiteboard it is temporary things that kick me off before moving to Visio or JIRA. The price tag seems so high for its single use. But, still itching to buy it.
We are growing like crazy and have a large amount of open positions!! Pay is very competitive and DOE.
Released "Version 2" which was an entire newly built system that we worked on for an entire year (we also thought we were "agile" btw). This completely crashed and around 10K users were unable to use the product for almost 2 weeks. We did plenty of things right but we also failed.
Biggest Lessons learned: 1. Release features and changes in manageable incremental chunks 2. Load test, load test, load test - just do it! Yeah, sure, your app worked with your one user when there is 1kb of data in your datastore - what about 5000 users accessing it with 10GB in your data store? 3. Get and use an APM - when it feels like everything is on fire you'll need to know where the fire is coming from 4. One way changes that can't be rolled back are the devil. Take the time needed to make sure you can roll back - manageable incremental changes help with that.
"Vehicles must yield the right-of-way to pedestrians within a crosswalk that are in the same half of the roadway as the vehicle or when a pedestrian is approaching closely enough from the opposite side of the roadway to constitute a danger"
Growing up in AZ I was always told that pedestrians ALWAYS have the right away - something I always thought was strange.
I do stand correct however.

The pedestrian had the right-away in this particular situation.
EDIT :: Looks like I read that first sentence wrong (my apologies)... "Vehicles must yield the right-of-way to pedestrians within a crosswalk that are in the same half of the roadway as the vehicle or when a pedestrian is approaching closely enough from the opposite side of the roadway to constitute a danger"
