Just as an example: I think I've even read this opinion piece before but with everything going on with AI in this moment my first thought reading the headline was:

"Ah Interesting, I'm wondering how learned tokenized semantic meaning and diffusion models fit together."

rwoerz · 23 days ago
Let's call that "semantic diffusion", too, just to make "semantic diffusion" a little self-referring.

It’s how you signal you’re part of the AI inner circle/cult.

Can we use "ensheetification" to describe this phenomeon? (sure I'm not the first to use this word)

That description really excels

Fascinating research. The idea that humans were using compound tools with poison 60,000 years ago really challenges our assumptions about "primitive" technology. Our ancestors were far more sophisticated than we often give them credit for.

They had some kind of "microlithic" architecture.

Congrats.

Some German natives may argue that the time short forms are wrong as they prefer "dreiviertel" instead of "viertel vor".

When Rust was receiving a lot of press I did the same with the Spam song but changed Spam to Rust. Lovely Rust! Wonderful Rust!

I noticed I had an immediate bias against candidates that showed up to interviews using Windows (except for one person who was in WSL and seemed very comfortable in bash), or, not having their SSH key set up for cloning the github repo we used for our interview, or fumbling back and forth with their mouse between vscode and the browser, not using all their screen real estate, or not knowing even the most basic of keyboard shortcuts (I nearly cut an interview short once when I saw someone right click copy right click paste in vscode but I wanted to give them a fair shake so gritted my teeth and went through with the rest of the interview. They did poorly.). I never used it as a for/against factor but for me lack of interest in computers, and a lack of familiarity with the tools of our trade, is a red flag.

On the flip side, immediate green flags for me were: using linux, using keyboard shortcuts to manipulate windows / within the IDE, using an IDE other than vscode (vim/nvim or emacs are huge green flags), having custom scripts, having custom themes, or, the biggest one, self-hosting some applications. And Lo, these candidates also seem to perform the best in my experience.

> right click copy right click paste

Remembers me of a fellow student who refused to maximize his editor window. It turned out that he moved the text cursor to the next line with the right indentation by using just a lot of spaces.

The Drawin Awards need a category for the best newcomer or so.
