Hey all, OP here (author of the blog post, someone else submitted it ).

I wrote this a few days ago mostly out of frustration and honestly did not expect it to go anywhere. It is pretty surreal to wake up and see it on HN with so much discussion.

Thank you for reading and for all the comments, messages, and thoughtful critiques.

I am currently looking for roles that sit at the intersection of ML, product, and research. I like open ended work where you figure out what to build as much as how to build it. I am a builder, and I also enjoy PM type work and being close to users and the product. If you are working on something in that space and think I might be a fit, I would love to chat.

Also, thank you to Daniel Han for sending me the link and bringing this to my attention.

In any case, thanks again for reading and for the conversation.

Reading this, I was thinking all along that the job you are searching for isn’t the one you are built for. Amazing writing and analysis. Kudos!

Sounds like ADHD. Perhaps talk to a therapist before you tear your family apart from this disordered thinking. No job is worth it. None. Zero.

slop excepted, writing is a very difficult activity that has always been outsourced to some extent, either to an individual, a team, or to some software (spell checker, etc). Of course people will use AI if they think it makes them a better writer. Taste is the only issue here.

Questions for people who migrate off-cloud:

1. How many nodes do you have? 2. Did you install anything to monitor your node(s) and the app deployed on these nodes? If so, which software?

you might consider trying again, but do so with jjui (https://github.com/idursun/jjui) - very similar concept to lazygit and makes working with (the already simple) jj even more seamless and intuitive

thanks!

I have primarily used git in the terminal for more than a decade. I also used magit when I was primarily working in emacs (magit's great!). I now primarily use lazygit. While I'm not a fan of the whole UI, this is the only git tool that makes me go super fast while creating a near-perfect commit history. I tried using jj but immediately stopped after installation as it required a learning curve that I wasn't ready to commit to yet.
