if you work with AI you know how hilarious this statement is.

I bet there scammers flooding the streets with "AI Certs"
Yeah I work with it a lot daily. Moreso trying to build use cases. It's more about having base competency on top of your current tool stack if you're a technologist

I feel understand the use case/goal then lets you go down the path of what AI based tools exist and you can go down that journey to learn to implement. I more so called out your comment because often people talk about AI like it's a product or program language that you just learn and put on your resume on some "I know AI" sneeze lol. I had a customer call and cats kept speaking of AI in the context of it being like a product that just "does things"

Google’s Sergey Brin Urges Workers to the Office ‘at Least’ Every Weekday​


Currently, Google maintains a hybrid work system that requires employees to come to the office at least three days a week, but this is interpreted as a suggestion to abolish it and expand in-office work. He also emphasized work efficiency, noting, "Working 60 hours a week is the optimal productivity point."

Man, Google at one point used to be one of the best companies because of their WLB.

The best marketing for the kid
Turn down other internships after 4 were rescinded










Private Equity/Investor/Tech/Startup - Twitter is hilarious

This thread right here :mjlol: :heh:



1/12] In October 2021, I got accepted early to Harvard's class of 2026. Then in June 2022, they rescinded me for sneaking out on a field trip, getting caught by a cop, and trying to outrun her (dumb move). But I wouldn't have been reported to Harvard if I didn't make so many enemies out of being extremely blunt in my speech (something I still deal with).

LESSON: authenticity != a$$hole-ity. Know your audience.
LESSON: don't be a dumbass with the cops

Amazon CEO says he’s cutting middle managers because they want to ‘put their fingerprint on everything.’ That’s music to the ears of Gen Z​


Last September the Amazon veteran said that he wanted to “increase the ratio of individual contributors to managers by at least 15% by the end of Q1 2025.”

This guy created an AI tool to bypass Leetcode Interviews!

So this guy on twitter (@im\_roy\_lee) built an AI tool (interviewcoder.co) that can bypass all the Leetcode interviews in real time. Idk how many of you have heard this by now. Funniest thing is that he used this to crack the Amazon interview, recorded the whole process and posted it on YouTube! Then He rejected the offer! Not only Amazon, he cleared Meta, Tiktok, Capital one SWE Intern offers at the same time and eventually they rescinded them after he made this viral. The tool works on kernel level which goes undetected by all the screen sharing softwares, hence they won't be able to make anticheat for a while, then there will be v2.0 lmao.

If Leetcode interviews stop because of this guy, we all gotta give him some!

What do you think, will they change the hiring process now?

Yo this dude has legit changed the game.

I honestly think it’s for the best. The emphasis should be in System Design, Clean Code principles, architecture, etc.

The interview should be can this person do the job he's interviewing for. Is he easy to work with and can learn quickly.

The same way other industries do. Other than that the tech industry needs to look into getting standard licenses for the specific niche domains. I'm glad we are doing away with these retarded hoops they want you to go through.

Then Indians and Asians are notorious cheaters, big tech deserves to be getting finessed like this.
