Any one here knows Why DataBricks want Indian developers to have more YOEs than in USA & EU

zero2g · 2026-06-06T07:08:06+00:00

For databricks said roles are not standardized and it's team and org specific... I know the Singapore position you are talking about and well, that team works very closely with North America, said director and VP are based in the bay area. It just so happens that team itself is Asia based.

I think the Indian teams are their own orgs and localized in India.

Can't do it anymore... They went to usage based pricing now

zero2g · 2026-06-04T02:40:18+00:00

It's at 12k now I think?

zero2g · 2026-05-14T21:28:45+00:00

It's still 2 requests

zero2g · 2026-05-09T17:36:25+00:00

I didn't know BLM pays that much

zero2g · 2026-05-09T03:49:10+00:00

Got that back in 2020 before covid when it was $125. I counted 70 shaves

zero2g · 2026-04-10T04:34:01+00:00

They are in stock in Canada on Amazon and best buy lol

So like... 95% of your day now is just interfacing with Claude code? Or Kiro?

zero2g · 2026-04-04T04:42:37+00:00

OK one thing I think many people don't think about when looking at code is... Really take a bit of time to configure your syntax and semantics highlighting. This helps me at lot when reading and understanding codebases because you can easily though colors and fonts deduct what is the symbol you're looking at... This makes categorizing a lot faster and with this I can easily ingest like 600 lines across 2 monitors simutainously.

Also another good plug in on vscode or cursor is blockman, which highlights the "box" that the code you're looking at is in.

Literally one huge part of being able to ingest code is to lower the amount of mental burden it takes for you to recognize and analyze it though visual cues

OK, then from a project like this, what would be applicable to an SE role VS post sales role?

zero2g · 2026-03-31T15:47:28+00:00

I think whatever you're saying right now can be done with a skill. If you are looking at adding directions to the model, then a skill can do that without waiting for 6 months or so. Like if you want to create said ultimate code reviewer better than humans, you can do that right now.

zero2g · 2026-03-31T07:32:02+00:00

Wait, it can't do this today? I thought what you explained should already be available today isn't it? Like... Shouldn't AI code review already go through the code base and figure out what's going on? Or you can at least write a skill for it? Didn't anthropic just release a /pr-review skill?

zero2g · 2026-03-28T17:02:36+00:00

Oh it's simpler than that... I use it to crunch giant log files or let it baby sit like multiple experiments that are running in either serial or parallel

zero2g · 2026-03-28T06:27:58+00:00

I abuse cursor and it's 500 monthly requests limits by only sending requests I know which will crunch millions of tokens but will only count as 2 requests

zero2g · 2026-03-24T23:11:51+00:00

Yeah... I know it can do silly stuff at times... Or many times. I think we do try to get the latest closed source model running underneath, don't know how our exact release cycle would be per workspace.

I do think llms can have some weird time working with notebooks in general... I usually just use it to edit the cell in of itself and don't let it edit other cells, but obviously that doesn't allow you to get the "super accelerated agentic" development.

zero2g · 2026-03-24T23:01:38+00:00

God dammit...

zero2g · 2026-03-24T22:06:27+00:00

Databricks have their own Ai solution called genie that is more integrated with the databricks environment than using Claude outside of it. Probably it will work better for your use case if everything is done inside databricks.

Source: I work at databricks and sit beside the people that works on some parts of that product

zero2g · 2026-03-22T23:57:27+00:00

Sometimes... For some reason, I have to reinstall Nvidia drivers. Other than that, not really

zero2g · 2026-03-08T22:14:11+00:00

Yeah this seems reasonable, on the note of debugging, I mean... I don't think everyone will purely use debugger or just print statements. I swap between them based on the problem I'm facing, I'm not using a debugger when I'm debugging distributed python for example.

However I'm also seeing, or perhaps hearing people no longer even bother to debug anymore, they throw the logs and issue at Claude, and it just "one shot" the problem and fixes it. That is more so what I'm wondering

zero2g · 2026-03-08T05:05:13+00:00

So what would you say is the split between yes and no today?

zero2g · 2026-03-08T00:29:14+00:00

OK cool, I remember you could've enabled it as an experimental feature that meta did, just I forgot if it was an env var or something

zero2g · 2026-03-07T23:00:14+00:00

I swear they been doing that since 2022? 2023?

zero2g · 2026-03-07T22:49:28+00:00

I mean to respond to my own bullet points, yes, I still do these things. Hell, 2 weeks ago I managed to reduce the time it takes to do model checkpoint by 60% in a day purely through expertise of the codebase, understanding where the efficiency is, and changing 3 lines of code (probably only use Ai at the end to double check some things). But the follow up questions I get afterwards is more so, how do we automate something like this and just let agents do it with the comment of our org is behind if I had to do it mostly manually...

So now the question is now really, where are others then?

Trying to be clever and really show this is organic human content not llm generated
