It was all about the money that got all of us into this game


everyone wants to move to sf to “meet people in ai” they come and are excited about all the events, just to realize 6 months later that all they did was meet other people who are like them they then either leave and say “sf wasn’t worth it” or they are smart and realize everyone worth meeting doesn’t go to these events

Be honest devs, Is coding still worth learning in the AI era?

People at major AI labs (using internal models) 3-4 months ahead of startup silicon valley engineers SV founders/eng 3-6 months ahead of NY NY founders/eng 6-12 months ahead of rest of world Most people have no idea how fast AI shifting as 1-2 years behind SOTA "The future is here, just not equally distributed" - Robert Heinlein

networking as activity is mostly cope. e.g. the conference circuit, the warm intros, the moving to sf discussions or whatever, oh & the “grabbing coffee” economy.. all of this is overwhelmingly negative selection esp with vc (lol). the ppl worth knowing are usually too busy doing the thing to be farmable, & the ppl available to be networked w/ are available cuz they have literally nothing better going on. do the work, then publish it loudly enough that the right ppl can find you w/o you having to chase. one way broadcast > two way schmoozing. this is why x matters a ton now more than ever before.

if you’re hired as a software engineer and you’re walking around with your laptop ajar so your agents can keep running, you should be fired for not knowing how to set up a vps
