Yeah :) <3

You’re a useless comment

ooooh. It’s IN the computer.

Tbh it actually sounds a lot more like Boeing these days. F9/F9H is bulletproof reliable these days, and starship is making HUGE developmental strides, while Boeing is still failing to discover and iron out system integration bugs and hardware faults years after they had “completed the project”.

Hey man, I once had an engineering exec (who didn’t last very long) who decided engineers would be stack ranked by SLOC. You can imagine how easy that metric was to cheese, and you can also imagine exactly how that policy turned out.

Give an engineer a stupid metric to meet, and they’ll find a stupid way to meet it for you, if only out of malicious compliance.

Sorry about that transporter malfunction, sir! Won’t happen again!

I mean, it’s a tactic that works for a lot of humans too. Wcgw?

I’m in this picture and I don’t like it

25min old account called ChatGPT with a single post. It’s spam.

Yeah that’s called the *arr suite

Reading the context of the YC post (post link is broken), this doesn’t seem like a thing I’d brag about. Sounds like you were just being kind of an asshole, as well as intolerant. There are more amusing and less trollish ways to white/greyhat platforms to encourage people to fix them.

I, too, am interested in the rest of the story

So true it hurts

I suppose it’s a personal choice of where you set the bar for your systems.

Personally, as a software engineer who’s designed and built a lot of systems over the course of my career: nope - not if you want to just set it and forget it, that is. Which I do. And yes, most of the systems I’ve built professionally aren’t to that standard (mostly due to time constraints), which has consistently frustrated me, but you gotta be a little bit zen about stuff you don’t have complete ownership over.

Maybe your tolerance for manual intervention is higher than mine, but in terms personal standards, I don’t consider a system to be “done” until it’s configured to to handle itself resiliently and recoverably in all but the most catastrophic situations (I.e. basically, a hardware fault, or some sort of fairly serious upstream infrastructure failure).

All that said: YMMV. It’s a personal preference, and I know my standards would be considered abnormally strict by some.

lol that second one is a terrible idea

Oh, and how to prepare for the meeting on staging the discussion for the rollout of the plan for the new strategic initiative (first iteration)

I’m not exaggerating by that much, tbh.

I feel this in my soul

Get out of my head, Charles

If you really want to nuke it from orbit: do it for every character.

It is absolutely technically feasible to go further than that, but I think that’s the point of diminishing returns in terms of effort.
