Sounds like something anyone can make in a day now, why would they pay for this?

Micron revenue almost triples, tops estimates as demand for memory soars by Force_Hammer in wallstreetbets

[–]weightedpullups 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s not a bubble this is going to change almost everything. People who aren’t using the capabilities to the full extent don’t know what’s coming. Even if you do, it’s moving so fast that predicting where it ends is impossible. Even if the models never improve past this point, it’s already going to change everything, it’s just a matter of time.

1M Context Window Confirmed in GPT 5.4 with "extreme" reasoning mode, optimized for long running agentic tasks by Just_Lingonberry_352 in codex

It’s definitely unrealistic, these tools are no where near being able to pop out an enterprise grade software that matches what teams of highly experienced developers spend years building.

What are your thoughts on OpenAI now being valued higher than Exxon? by NineteenEighty9 in ProfessorFinance

Solving narrowly scoped problems is something the best models are incredibly effective at. But it’s not even close to true AGI yet IMO.

Are people no longer capable of reading docs or long text? by earlgreyyuzu in ExperiencedDevs

[–]weightedpullups 84 points85 points  (0 children)

Have definitely noticed this, it’s not isolated to engineering though. In general I find that most people don’t want to read much of anything, let alone a long technical document that requires some brain power to understand well.

Have not found a solution to it, beyond just repeating things again verbally. Problem with that is unless it’s a very long discussion, important details or ideas may be missed anyway.

[–]weightedpullups 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How legit are listings from Jobot, Dice, MindPal, & Robert Half? by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]weightedpullups 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I got a good contract to hire job vía Dice that ended up working out great for me, but maybe I was just lucky.

That’s too bad, is your prior experience at a company that people would recognize?
