I should know, I’ve been a software engineer for over 20 years and an engineering manager for over 10. I’ve promoted many engineers.

I don’t know what L4 and L5 map to in your company, but usually the gap between levels widens the higher the level. It’s much easier to go from entry-level (recent graduate) to mid-level, than from senior to staff. The skills required to make that jump are much harder to acquire, there’s less opportunities to put them in practice and a lot more dependencies on external factors you don’t have control over.

the ability to penetrate bands

That’s traditionally called “promotion”. So they’re not promoting employees anymore?

I create new emails on the fly with 33mail.com, using the website’s domain as in lemmy@<my username>.33mail.com

Awesome, thanks!

What do you use?

Yeah, I guess it is.

Doesn’t seem like he cares about the country at all, only himself.

Trump wants to leave a legacy???

It also has nothing to do with real web crawlers. Maybe the first crawlers when the web was a couple million pages were that dumb, but that’s ancient history.

No, he’s right, LLMs match the definition of AI. Terms like AI and AGI are not made up by corporations, they have specific meanings in computer science.

That’s not how it works though.

That’s not just engineering but also product and support. But yes, each one of those tasks are already on their way to being possible today, and agentic planning and coordination could make it feasible in much less time than you think. Until we get AGI /ASI it’ll need some human supervision, but not a lot more than that.

enough of the seniors have left and shit hits the fan

That was my first though also, but then I realized in that timespan the coding assistants will be able to replace the senior engineers as well. If not earlier.

And it tries to paint it as bad for the environment in this paragraph:

But the mining, milling, and production of nuclear fuel, as well as the construction and decommissioning of nuclear plants, emit greenhouse gases at levels ranging from 10 to 130 grams of carbon dioxide per kilowatt hour of power — lower than fossil fuels but higher than wind and hydroelectricity (and roughly on par with solar).

So… It’s good then?

Yeah, I’m not surprised. I didn’t think it was even possible. Whenever I have to transfer money to my bank account in Argentina I use crypto. Much easier. That one time that I used an intermediary US account I had no other option, never tried that again.

Ah, that’s a different ball game all together. Is that even possible? Last time I tried I had to wire to a US account that my Argentinian bank has in the US and they somehow transferred the money to my account. Still, it took a couple of days and it worked without a hitch.

It takes 1 day to wire money and it works on the first try, what are you talking about?

Saying you know who Satoshi is, that’s the claim, and that’s an extraordinary claim.

No, because it’s an extraordinary claim.

Ah, gotcha, and I agree
