Having tech skills in a non-tech job is just constantly being dumbfounded by outdated systems and writing code against the best practices you spent $$$ to learn (I'm looking at you, nested tables in MailChimp)

深夜Coding有感 ,前几年在腾讯、字节等大厂的时候,我三五天写的几个函数,现在用Claude可能十几分钟就写完了,质量还更好。
信息传递的过程是会失真的,100人的技术团队可能会因为沟通和交流问题降低很多效率,而小团队甚至是个人开发者,失真率很低,效率反而出奇的高,这种效率的提升甚至可能将原本需要三五个月的项目周期缩短到几天[捂脸]
有趣的是,其实AI加持下的前端工作反而比后端、数据分析还麻烦一点,用户交互、视觉设计、debug这方面都是LLM不擅长的
而曾经的researcher如果有一个idea,在初始阶段往往也是个人探索为主,验证可行性之后可能才会对外传播,因为哪怕是面对同门,也要防住不必要的麻烦发生,不要去考验人性。现在AI可以作为researcher的对话伙伴,帮助他们从一个小的... See more

No longer hiring junior or even mid-level software engineers.
Our tokens per codebase:
Gumroad: 2M
Flexile: 800K
Helper: 500K
Iffy: 200K
Shortest: 100K
Both Claude 3.5 Sonnet and o3-mini have context windows of 200K tokens, meaning they can now write 100% of our Iffy and Shortest code if prompted well.
It won’t be long until AI will be writing... See more
