One way to minimise friction: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mission_command

At each level, the commander specifies what is to be accomplished (with maybe some general constraints), but leaves it to the subordinates to determine how best to accomplish their shared objective.

Example: at Zorndorf (1758), Frederick the Great had repeatedly commanded von Seydlitz to attack. His last messenger said "the king will have your head if you don't obey this time", and von Seydlitz replied, "please let the king know that my head will be at his disposal after the battle, but during the battle I need it, to use on his behalf."

You have me curious because I have never even attempted to apply for one of these upper tier jobs I see on HN. Don't companies typically know what they are willing to pay a new hire for any position? I would assume they like to figure that out ahead of time for budgeting reasons, but I don't know.
At my company I'm in it's 6th reorganization in 13 years. The term used here is golden handcuffs. Where you're paid very well but you're in a middle of nowhere facility so any position you apply for has to be just right or it's not worth it.
I guess people can’t handle that one of their favorite writers did something despicable. No need to downvote so much, just comes across like you’re trying to conceal the truth, which is that the guy supported a monster.

This is an important take for this system. BlueCruise does a lot to check for attentiveness with its gaze-tracking. The driver would have been looking at the road at least a few seconds before the accident. As someone who has done several hundred miles on BlueCruise, it can be pretty touchy about you paying attention. Even taking a drink from a cup a little too long will get it to start alerting you and eventually kick you out of it.

What if it sleeps for 8 hours every 16 hours and during that sleep period, it updates its weights with whatever knowledge it learned that day? Then it doesn't need $1B of compute every 3 months, it would use the $1B of compute for 8 hours every day. Now extrapolate the compute required for this into the future and the costs will come down. I don't know where I was going with that...

Well the unit economics don't make any sense. You get unlimited free LLM calls forever? I don't really see the argument for it shipping too soon (although it is too soon for what they're claiming). There's a basic unit economics problem that can't be solved regardless of their future roadmap. They're promising people a no subscription model, claiming it eventually will have a Large Action Model and LLM for question and answering, and somehow those will be available free forever? It's either a get-rich-quick scheme, which sounds likely given their background as crypto grifters, or complete incompetence (somehow no one there ever thought what it might cost to do inference). Neither seems like a legit company that just shipped too soon.

Because there is no such thing as a syntax error in scratch. 10 year olds are not great at typing, spelling, or paying attention to the small details.

Scratch rules out a whole class of bugs and allows the kids to jump right into solving the interesting problems.
A single user action can result in more than one http request to a service. The idea of the rule you are referring to is more about things that don't have any user input at all, like crawlers. A user asked for that, they said "I want all my pals to know about this page", even if it's a dumb thing that they asked for, they asked for it.
I think they're probably unhappy with their current relationship because their libido thinks they ought to be having sex with a younger attractive woman and they're not.

Is this also self sabotaging a relationship? Sure, but if they wanted out of a relationship then they could do that via divorce. Actively searching for a new sexual partner seems to me to be what it appears to be on the tin... looking for someone new to sleep with.
Yeah that's totally a good idea. Take the team that invented the product and made it so successful that other companies switched to the standard. Then fire all of that expertise and start from scratch. 5-D chess all the way.

Yes seconding this. If you want a broad view of ML IMHO the best places to look at are conference proceedings. The typical review process is imperfect so that still doesn't show you all the interesting work out there (which you mention), but it is still a start wrt diversity of research. I follow LLMs closely but then going through proceedings means I come across exciting research like these [1],[2],[3].

Yes it is, if you want it to be. There's nothing stopping someone from using mypy, pyright, or other type tool on the strictest setting, and not passing builds unless you have 100% type coverage.

No, but you get ~95% of the safety guarantees by using immutable-esque objects like @dataclass(frozen=True), pydantic models with the same, or attrs/cattrs with similar setting.

Caltech, Princeton, and UChicago remained pretty level headed (both faculty and most students) through all of this. Notice that the first two schools are notorious for not having grade inflation.
And the fact is that those good schools, for example, are in the orbit of some of the more elite cities much of the time. SF’s geographical constraints I think sometimes mislead people into thinking towns near expensive cities are all equally expensive.

Many cities that are themselves expensive have suburbs and exurbs, some of which are themselves very expensive, but others of which are much more moderate and often have decent school systems and may be within an hour for medical care or an evening’s entertainment.

Gorillas ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gorillas_(video_game) )
With every release of Windows, I feel like I am in less and less control of my own computer. More and more things run/change/happen because Microsoft wants them to happen, not me. And things I do somehow still have control over, get regularly overridden by Microsoft at their whim. Windows is now even trying to stop me from using the basic Mail application, threatening that "soon" it will just out of the blue replace it with (unwanted) Outlook, without me having any say about it.

Apple is getting there too, but it's not as blatant as Microsoft. However, their opinions on how I should be using my computer tend to be even more sweeping and system-wide than Microsoft's. "Like that 32-bit software you've been running forever? Well fuck you, user, you can't anymore!" "You want to modify that file on your filesystem? Nope. Oh you got root? Still nope. Get lost."

Computers are supposed to serve the user, and only do things that the user commands them to do. Now, more and more, they are serving their manufacturers and the OS vendors, not the user.

In my experience, estimates are the root cause of quality problems and expectation mismatches. No one treats them as estimates but as actual calendar times.

I've been fortunate to steer my company towards simply prioritizing work and communicating the prioritization to the rest of the company and more importantly, our customers. We don't give time estimates or timelines to customers, but provide constant updates on where something is. No one has complained about this in general.
Of course, there are always exceptions - we resist them all we can, and that too is reflected as reprioritization of backlog.

Parasocial relationships. Influencers engage talk to their audience with a tone of familiarity. For some people they associate that tone with actually being familiar with the influencer. The viewer's internal schema for the influencer is familiar if not friend.

This is exploited to sell those people things. It's not all that different from celebrity endorsement advertising, it's just a bit more direct and overt because the influencer might respond to a viewer's tweet or mention them by name/handle if they hit some Patreon level or buy some thing.
They don't have to verify everybody for free. In fact they could make verification an additional revenue center.

They could make verification a paid service. Once verified yourself you can filter out unverified people. Unverified people can't see verification status of others.

Or they could make verification free for women, but the men have to pay to see or filter by verification status.

Ahh, BASIC. I still consider it a bit of a naughty language.

When I first learned to program as a child, it was in Pascal (on a mainframe... microcomputers were barely a thing back then). Our instructor expressly forbade us from learning BASIC because "it would teach us bad habits".

That which is forbidden becomes attractive, of course, so a bunch of us kids started getting together on our own and we all learned BASIC on the sly. It felt so... wrong... and delicious. Forbidden knowledge is fun knowledge.

That's how BASIC became the second high level programming language I learned.

Respectfully, I disagree with just about every assertion you make here.

> Nobody feels like they "have to" come in on Saturdays

If you list it upfront in your job postings like you're doing here, people will feel like they have to work on Saturdays. Though it looks like maybe your company is just you and a co-founder at this point. If that's correct, it's a little misleading to say that "nobody" feels this way, when the only two employees of the company are the two cofounders that have the most skin in the game.

By setting this policy, you are filtering out a wide-ranging group of senior engineers with families, side projects, and other commitments (such as myself) who will read this and move on immediately (or comment "lol" like another reply below).

I'm not necessarily just "looking for a job that pays the bills," either; I advised, and then directly worked full-time for, a startup that grew from 2 cofounders in the late aughts to IPOing on the NASDAQ about 5 years ago.

Obviously, it's your company, and if it works for you, then great. However if I were an investor in your company I'd have serious qualms with it.
