The premise of this is that advice to hire "Hire good people and give them room to do their jobs" is bad because that turns into "hire professional fakers and let them drive the company into the ground".

So, if I get this right, hiring is done by the founder, who is not capable of choosing good people in a sea of fakers, and because of founders incompetency the advice is bad?

I do agree that every founder/CEO should have a tool for gauging how their company is behaving out of their bubble, but I see this new mode as a dangerous proposition which will invite all sorts of paranoid founders/managers to take micromanaging/abuse to a whole new level.

Maybe a better question founders(VCs) should be asking themselves is why are there so many "professional fakers" in top/middle level positions, instead of figuring out how to augment their behavior?

In my third world country, when they do something unethical they say "everything is in accordance with the law", here it's "this is on me", both are very cynical. From the time they went private, it was apparent that this company is unethical to say the least. Given what it is building, this can be very dangerous, but I think they are more proficient in creating hype, than actually coming up with something meaningful.

It's really telling of US tech culture, how AI hype quickly turned from "Open" and "we're doing it for humanity" into a mega-corp cash grab *show.

I understand what money does to principles, but this is comical.

Hello everyone!

I am a full-stack software developer with 11 years of professional experience. Throughout my career I worked in long term roles with fast growing companies and teams, where I had an impact on the entire process of software development. I also have meaningful dev ops experience working in the modern AWS and GCP cloud setting. Besides my technical skills, I have experience with product design, UX, developer mentoring, candidate interviewing and leading software development teams.

Some of the best things I helped build:

* https://www.nutanix.com/uk/products/frame - led the refactor effort (and designed the new architecture) for the real time virtual desktop client which ran in the browser. At that time this was the most advanced browser based virtual desktop client in the world.

* https://location.foursquare.com/products/studio/ - led dev ops efforts, including the entire Studio platform move from GCP to AWS.

* https://humanity.tcpsoftware.com/ - responsible for the development of the main module of this scheduling software (the scheduler, while this was humanity.com)

Preferably, I'm available for a long term contracting position as a developer or a team lead, but would consider short term offers as well, so feel free to reach out.
