I'm not convinced this is going to be an issue. It assumes that models will continue to be differentiated the same way in the future and that the costs of code generation are going to remain high.

I think those systems will still be important. I'm just not sure if markdown is going to be the future there or we'll come up with better contracts and ways of orchestrating these tools and agents

How long will we use those markdown files versus relying on agents to call other agents to do a specific task? I assume as the models get better the need for those markdown files will go down

Excited to share that I’ve been promoted to Director of Engineering at HubSpot!

I had no idea how impactful my decision to join HubSpot would be when I was looking for jobs as a college senior. These past 10 years have been a wild ride and I’m looking forward to taking this next step.

Opinion | The Data on Self-Driving Cars Is Clear. We Have to Change Course.

I hear what you're saying, but that isn't backed up by data. Waymos are much safer than human drivers for everyone on the road including cyclists and pedestrians

Just wait till you see how unintuitive distracted or intoxicated human drivers are

US-Israeli strike on girls' school kills at least 85 students, Iran's judiciary says At least 85 students have been killed in US-Israeli strikes that hit an Iranian girls' school in Hormozgan province, Iran's judiciary said on Saturday. Washington has not commented on the reported str...

We killed 85 schoolgirls. We are not the good guys.

Why should we take him seriously? What evidence is there that Block is thriving?

Well at least I got to finish A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms before I had to cancel my HBO account

Block shares soar 24% as company slashes workforce by nearly half Block said Thursday it's laying off more than 4,000 employees, or about half of its head count.

The gross "AI washing" of tech layoffs continue. It sounds much better to say AI creates these magical new efficencies than to own that your business is struggling

Congrats! That's a lot to ship in a week

You know what AI is really good at?

I get like 10 of those a day and nothing seems to make it better. I would pay a lot for a solution to this.

People who don't understand that you can believe in something and criticize it aren't capable of nuance

Definitely use the For You Feed and also look for tech starter packs

They are my go to cloud and its such a nightmare to use. Vercel would be so screwed if Cloudflare ever figured out their DX

Its both a massive up skilling effort and a change to the processes, ceremonies, and tools that product teams use day to day. I think there is going to need to be even tighter collaboration and communication between teams

Yeah I agree the transition is just starting. Engineers definitely need to take on more responsibility for understanding the business problems and requirements for what they are building.

I think the question is what that looks like practically.

I was trying to understand how this was a joke about the Red Sox owner for too long

Most of the discussions I'm finding so far are about getting engineers to shift their mental model or working patterns, but that obvious 2nd order effect is that teams are going to need to plan faster

Is anyone talking about what the future of product teams look like with generative AI? As I'm getting back to work after my sabbatical its clear to me that we need to change the way product teams work.

Increased engineering velocity and output mean more pressure on PM and UX.

But where are those chips going to come from? It seems like demand is going to outstrip supply for years. TSMC is the only serious producer of this kind of chip and it is going to take them years to scale up

You need an invite code to Waymo? Or is there some special beta going on

A year ago, I thought LLMs were kind of neat but not that useful. I saw the code autocomplete and thought, meh.

Last summer just flipped. I never ever thought I would see automated code generation like we see now.

I know there’s baggage but you need to know the coders are being real about this

Really enjoying using Conductor for coding at work and on my personal projects. I rarely need to open the IDE anymore but it’s there if I need it

Its almost like competition is a good thing

I made the jump back over here and am having a much better time talking about AI stuff than in the past.

we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad

githubx?

Good luck! A couple recommendations:

1. Try to find a way to force people out of their normal workflow. It speeds up the adjustment.
2. Have people share what's working for them so others can learn.
