If >50% of people press the blue button, everyone survives
Red button pressers always survive, but they’ll get a “red button presser” badge on their Twitter profile.
What do you press?
It is alarming and ridiculous how we have all become okay with shipping untested code. Software was supposed to be reliable, and we have stripped that away.
all the CEOs sacrificing sleep at the alter of productivity, is most certainly going to back fire.
So much of decision making degrades as you get less sleep and no, you don't get "use to it." You just remain in a perpetual bad state.
our CEO’s strategy: ask claude what to do, then ask Claude to do it and repeat.
if we ask questions, his words "ask claude"

Career Update:
I recently got a job offer of Rs. 85 LPA in Bangalore.
The package was good and the company was great, but the position demanded me to relocate.
I politely rejected the offer, explaining that I’ll never move to Bangalore.
Just let Opus go for over an hour on a new feature. When it was done, I asked how I can test it.
20 minutes later, it realized I can't test it because it did the whole thing entirely wrong.
Idk how you guys use this model every day for real work 🙃
Interviewed a backend developer.
Guy was at 21 LPA. We offered 28 LPA, roughly a 33 percent hike. He agreed and confirmed joining.
Yesterday he emailed saying he got a 32 LPA offer elsewhere and now wants 36 LPA from us.
Nonsense. Why agree in the first place.
If you are still shopping offers just say it upfront. We stopped interviewing other candidates and waited through the notice period for the joining date.
Now two days before joining, he came back with a new price tag.
What’s will be the future of open source libraries with the raise of AI?
For example years ago it was a pleasure and valuable for your swe ego to submit a PR and being approved.
What about now? Will agents create PRs?
First time I’m getting frustrated. I'm on @zeddotdev preview build and the thread history keeps disappearing. It's the 3rd or 4th day today.
I know you guys are working hard, but if this could be looked into, that'll help.
