tayo42··on Political bias in AI: Where the AI models stand
The kinds of questions they asked don't really have right or wrong answers. They didn't ask the culture war questions that comes up now in politics.
tayo42··on An entire Herculaneum scroll has been read for the first time
Where are these jobs for non specialist swes?
tayo42··on The A.I.-Design Aesthetic That's Taking over the Internet
Wish there was some pictures. I've been noticing there's been higher quality but simmilar looking things like ads or promotions material.

Im curious what the Ai look exactly is

tayo42··on The deadly rise of giant trucks and SUVs
You can rent and drive a truck bigger then that at uhaul
tayo42··on The Low-Tech AI of Elden Ring
Is a book like that still pretty useful? Or is Ai in games abstracted away in game engines pretty much? I've been meaning to play with unreals Ai features a bit.
tayo42··on Job application asked for my SAT scores
The extra 800 points didn't count for a few years, I didn't practice for it and as expected did bad. Don't remeber the score except I did well enough on math
tayo42··on Walt Disney Company is the most successful at monetizing human nostalgia [audio]
Frozen and Moana are 10 years and older now. That doesn't seem new?

From what I read about blizzard it seemed like Activision wanted them to treat wow like cod

tayo42··on Becoming a dad changes men's brains
I don't think it's exagaration.unless you had kids young, before you had established yourself and some kind of identity, it does all go away. Who you were and your hopes and dreams all die after your newborn arrives. Your just a parent now trying to fit a life into 1 or 2 hours of free time.
tayo42··on The early hiring funnel is now breaking on both ends
Refferal make sense, but all of mine ended with rejections. Clearly I'm not a moron since I'm getting reffered by ex coworkers and still ill even get an automated rejection...
tayo42··on The early hiring funnel is now breaking on both ends
Resumes are written for hr

Ideally we submit 2 resumes one for the non technical people that need to be involved and one for managers.

Instead were attempting to write for two audiences (or 3?automated filters) and the less knowledgeable one will reject without talking to you

tayo42··on Ask HN: Will programmers write more efficient code during the memory shortage?
Are programmers and their use of data structures driving up storage requirements in games though? Or is it just high poly models and high res textures?
tayo42··on Noam Shazeer Joins OpenAI
I think it's more about how the products that impact our lives might change and what might flow down to us becasue of that.
tayo42··on Is Meta destroying its engineering organization?
> since they were "intelligent" enough to pass the Meta interviews.

I haven't interviewed with them in almost 10 years. But aren't they doing the same interview everyone else does?

tayo42··on Hetzner Price Adjustment
This was the my impression. I don't think laptops and desktops are that popular outside business use anymore?
tayo42··on What job interviews taught me about Kubernetes
Isn't fargate or ecs that simple service?
tayo42··on Not everyone is using AI for everything
This thread is why job searching sucks. Every one making hiring decisions has conflicting advice and requirements.
tayo42··on Not everyone is using AI for everything
I've unfortunately been doing alot of interviews. Leet code is common. Or "practical" which seems to more or less mean implement some kind of kv store class with some trick constraint.
tayo42··on The computer science degree isn’t dead
You still need to leet code and memorize the system design script lol
tayo42··on Statement on US government directive to suspend access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5
What's the alternative to the us and silicon Valley? Companies were trying to make Austin happen and that was a failure. Now one talks about that anymore.
tayo42··on We've suspended access to Claude Mythos 5 and Claude Fable 5
In a substantially different way then how it is now? You can put something listening on 22, 80 and 443 and log how much stuff tries to get in.
tayo42··on Statement on US government directive to suspend access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5
It was about spam and scam generation which mostly was true as we can see...
tayo42··on Doing nothing at work
You can have before and after data and track trends. How did you know the issues was wide spread in the first place. You must have some proof somewhere.

The impact is how many outages overall. If you only prevent one outage then maybe it's not that meaningful.

Your last paragraph, your right that happens in the short term. In the long term those teams get reputations for being a shit show, there will be high turnover, good engineers won't transfer in, people's compentaencies start to get questioned, other teams will avoid working with that team and develop their own solutions, and higher up people will start to look at what's going on.

tayo42··on If you are asking for human attention, demonstrate human effort
The topic is about person to person communication when collaborating. Advertising isn't relevant at all
tayo42··on Doing nothing at work
Not totally true. You can measure page amounts per team or how heavy oncall is.
tayo42··on Where is the AI jobs crisis?
Oh, I'm on the job market, unemployed and probably wont apply becasue of the contract. That's probably your reason for not getting the quality of candidate you're hoping for. that hourly range goes pretty low and doesn't give confidence that a potential employee won't get low balled
tayo42··on Where is the AI jobs crisis?
Is your job remote friendly and what's the pay?
tayo42··on Where is the AI jobs crisis?
Nearly 20 years then...
tayo42··on Cleaning up after AI rockstar developers
The person running the Ai needs to know to set up linting in the first place and have it be applied. It's not a default.

Ive had ai make code that doesn't pass a linter and make code look like hand aligned code.

tayo42··on Making peace with your unlived dreams (2023)
Ime with sports and injuries. Doctors say alot of things, unless they are sports doctors that work with you to get back to sports or athletic them selves, they just give useless generic advice.

I lost a year becasue of doctors just telling me to rest for a constant pain I had.

Author should just go learn to snowboard. There's athletes out there competing with torn acls.

tayo42··on The OnlyFans Economy of American AI
Who is that?
