Indeed.

This displays a profound lack of understanding of the type of work required of an individual IC inside a big team in a large corp, and a generalist in a scrappy startup.

The test might actually be okay! But it shows they're trying to recruit from the incompatible talent pool.

From a squirrel:

"We interview devs by giving them a task to climb a tree. What is surprising: 14/15 rabbits failed this screening."

Zet CLI aplikacija. Mislim da samo mene veseli, ali neka. :)

OpenStreetMap Crash Course

Održat će se u Srijedu 05.11. u 19h na:
www.twitch.tv/turing_compl...

Sadržaj:
- uvod u OSM, kratka prezentacija s primjerima
- primjer rješavanja konkretnih zadataka

Trajanje cca 1h. Svi su dobrodošli naučiti malo o mapiranju.

bezdomni.net/osm-crash-co...

Evo ako je itko zainteresiran malo poslušati o otvorenim kartama, pripremit ću kratko predavanje i demo cca 1h, idući tjedan jednu večer. Napravio sam poll pa se upišite kad možete. Svi dobrodošli, ne morate nužno išta raditi kasnije. :)

"It's hard to get someone to fix a bug when their bottom line benefits from the bug not being fixed.", to paraphrase a popular quip.

Comic. Two-column table. Column A lists planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune. Column B has checkmark boxes for whether the planets have rings: the outer planets’ boxes are checked, and Earth has a red check. [Earth with a ring with an array pf points around it. An arrow labeled “Geostationary Satellite Bel”t points to the ring.] [caption] Astronomy fact: A century ago, Earth didn’t have rings, but we have one now! It’s where all the satellite dishes are pointed.

Sounds (uncomfortably) close to going from individual contributor to managing a team, if at another (lower) level.

misliš Pydantic?

... I'll see myself out

Succintly put: "AI is writing 90% of the code [...] At the same time, AI doesn't own the code, [I] carry the responsibility for how it runs in production."

As an aside, happy to see I'm not the only maniac using AI to write raw SQL where I used to use ORM: github.com/senko/cijene...

That's not programming, that's specification (and only applicable if you know the exact shade you want):

If you say "buy 1L of milk", you're not doing math, you're talking English. Same if you say "make the background 7DB097".

That's still English, as opposed to:

div.mydiv { background: #7DB097 }

Next, people are going to call buying used books "stealing" because the authors get no money at all from the secondary sales.

I better sell a few of mine that I don't like enough to keep forever, before it gets outlawed as "piracy".

Evo, i FINA može poslužiti, ako za ništa drugo, kao loš primjer.

No, you don't want to hire I think this might be the meanest thing I've ever written.

Timely article on how searching for "the best" backfires: www.otherbranch.com/shared/blog/...

Those would simply have never gotten written before. They don't get committed. They're useful but not earth-shattering. They contain a ton of code, especially if Claude also generates tests for them. And no one's job is getting replaced by them, nor do they devalue proper software development.

When you use coding agents for something that produces the bulk of the code of an application that will be used for years, also factor in the technical debt that you are happily accumulating. When you use LLMs an an aid, you could, on the contrary, improve your coding culture.

Inb4 anyone things I'm just trolling:

> The core issue? Not the quality of the AI models, but the “learning gap” for both tools and organizations. While executives often blame regulation or model performance, MIT’s research points to flawed enterprise integration.

Clearly, they are prompting it wrong.

Mene je zaintrigirala kila svinjske masti ispod monitora...

Na drugoj slici su jedan od najvećih mislilaca prošlog stoljeća i Feynman.

There is a non-zero risk of AI apocalypse in which LLMs, rather than improving productivity (or at least maxxing paperclips), consume all the world's resources trying to produce anatomically and physically correct SVG of a pelican riding a bicycle.

And it will all be @simonwillison.net 's fault.

Finally recorded something outside of the "studio" 😅 For this occasion I fittingly reached back to a 90s trip-hop classic by Morcheeba. Enjoy 🌊⛵🌞😎

The issue of sky-high expectations from GPT-5 (as highlighted by @filippo.abyssdomain.expert) is that OpenAI have been terrible at managing expectations.

If you hype up "AGI achieved internally" and "PhD-level intelligence", users WILL expect miracles.

Compare with Anthropic or Chinese labs comms.
