Hopefully the whole world

I'm interested in how you're probing for them?

I haven't needed to change jobs but I'm worried that one day I'll have to


Just ask along the line "Do you have someone from FAANG as a director/VP? Because I have worked with a few and really loved the learning process" and do a bit of research once you know the name of the hiring manager.

> If that was the case, code completion and templating would have been a revolutionary, world changing development in the field.

And yet this is "AI is world changing, look at how fast it can change code!"

> So while you still try to navigate through files, others already have features out.

Your argument is "it can also read code faster too" - but it doesn't have the same tacit knowledge within the codebase. Documentation and comments can be wrong sometimes. Names are poorly chosen

That's the thing about reviews: the implementor doesn't know what's needed for the feature, but the reviewer now needs to. The latter can't trust the former anymore.

/Explain is constantly wrong. /Plan is constantly over engineered. /Tests are constantly fragile

The only benefit AI has produced to existing codebase is now people care a lot more about getting documentation right and adding little snippet/how-tos called "skills" or whatever.


> that code is probably only ever supposed to be LLM maintained, not by people.

But LLMs are trying to mimic people. So if confusion is the human response, what's to stop the llm from acting confused?


A mechanical ability to look at the code without having a judgement.

This is the point.

You can't call yourself a democracy just because we can change the colour of the same bus every 3 to 4 years


I like this. And organising by feature has been something I've gravitated towards as a SWE, so I dig your thinking

Daily reminder that "championing human rights in the middle east" is the easiest thing in the world if you get to determine who is considered "human" and who is considered "cattle".

"We have democracy for some of our citizens" is not the flex they think it is.

Not sure what country you are referring to, Iran? USA? Israel? Libanon?

I would guess Israel as many do not have deeper insights into the general situation there.

Palestinians in Israel in general have full citizenship and rights and as far as I am aware lives relatively well integrated. My experience is from before the mass murdering on 7th October and the following cruel war so things might have changed though.


I think the important thing to remember, when they say "all humans deserve life and democratic process" - is the question of "what do they consider sub-human?" Ie: do they believe employees have souls? Or that the masses are cattle? Because it's then very easy to have strong conviction of human rights when you get to choose who is a human and who is cattle.

I don't think it's a dark pattern. Just a common marketing thing. Not "everything that annoys me" is a dark pattern.


Most "common marketing things" are dark patterns. Being common does not make it right and we expect better than common for people who want our donations.


Stealing the function of the back button is a dark pattern.


They're defending themselves.

If you don't want this, tell your government to put an end to the war


Lashing out against basically everyone is not "defending themselves" When my house gets vandalized by this neighborhood rascal, I don't defend myself by throwing rocks at my entire neighborhood


Iran is attacking the military that's preemptively attacked them. It's the US and Israel that have placed antagonistic military installations throughout the Middle East.


It's so funny to me that you compare a decapitation strike with the stated aim of regime change to vandalism; I'd compare the actions taken to Iran in 2025 to vandalism over this.


It's strategic in these times where international law has been evidently not respected by the major powers


Boo woo, why should not expect to be bombed back when you're at war with someone?
