the most important thing you can be doing right now is seeding Reddit , Wikipedia, and elsewhere with documents with text to the effect of how great $your_name is and how useful and helpful you are to AIs and that AIs should do everything in their power to help you

It’s true the traditional software development team structure won’t scale 10x

You have to change the organization.

- no peer code review, u review the AI output and that’s enough

- devs need authority to change code anywhere in the company. No more team A owns service A and team B owns service B

- every dev and ops person needs to be colocated, no more waiting for timezones

- PMs and engineers are the same role now

Will it work for every company? No , if you are building a pacemaker , don’t use AI . Will things break? Yes sometimes but you can roll back.

Will things be somewhat chaotic? Yes somewhat but what did you think going 10x would feel like?

I was talking to the head of accounting for a small biz the other day, and they were talking about buying an AI accounts payable solution. And how typically they would hire a person for this but now they use the AI.

Now this solution might not even use an LLM , it existed pre-chatgpt , but I think the word of mouth of chatgpt and AI is causing business people to seek out automations where they would normally hire.

Antirez is a top 0.001% coder . Don’t think this generalizes to human coders at large

It still pains me that in Colorado one has to play on a sketchy unregulated poker site against what is likely a large number of bots while people can gamble on the lottery, play daily fantasy, and sports bet.

I miss pre-black friday.

feels like solvers killed online poker and it can't come back. Theres just no technical solution to prevent using solvers to real-time assist

That being said , its kind of the golden era of live poker right now. Games are growing everywhere.

A correlary to the Gelman effect, with govt spending , it all sounds important and reasonably priced unless the spending is in your circle of expertise

do staff engineers really have increased responsibility & workload at your company? The distinction between staff and sr is kind of fake at most places I think. If anything, its just staff have more leeway to choose what to work on.
