Hey I’ve schedule a 2h Slack meeting to discuss this topic more. Please confirm your availability 🙃

You sound like a middle manager that brings a net loss to your workplace and justifies their job as crucial because without you, the coders would all be running around the office slamming into each other like 2 year olds.

Coding is the only job. Period. The rest is housekeeping. Much like digging a ditch. It’s not going to get dug if you sit around talking about logistics and reviewing all the other ditches or wasting my time telling me again and again how the ditch needs to be dug. Nor needing hourly updates on how the ditch is coming along, so you can arbitrarily make changes.

If you think I “just don’t get it”, then that totally explains your irrelevance in the work place. Because companies have long lost their way and have prioritized the structure well beyond what they are actually meant to do: get shit done. But then you sound like the type that believes companies are crucial to our success because they funnel money back into the economy and keep society afloat (narrator: they don’t), so I’ll say good day to you sir.

I worked freelance for like a decade. Then I joined a “real” studio. Literally 80% meetings, team meetings, morning stand ups, presentations, documentation, and senior reviews, then 20% actual work. My old boss was great with time management but he left and the new leads would lock you into a 3h meeting, most of it to discuss other people’s work, then expect you to make 3 days worth of edits in 3h.

I feel this meme hard.

Yes we know. We aren’t talking about the authenticity of the meme. We are talking about the fundamental problem with “AI”

As comical as memey as this is, it does illustrate the massive flaw in AI today: it doesn’t actually understand context or what it’s talking about outside of a folder of info on the topic. It doesn’t know what a guitar is, so anything it recommends suffers from being sourced in a void, devoid of true meaning.

One of my first jobs was at a gas station. The lady who hired me was in shit with the company because she hired some dude and he was skimming peoples CCs. They found out, fired him but she did zero background check on the guy. Came back to bite her. I was his replacement

So did almost everyone in the cast lol

Or… maybe it’s language that is wrong
