Minor correction, but you probably mean Blackrock-type firms. Blackwater was a private military company.

I wonder how coaching can be applied to software engineering. As a developer, I undergo code reviews and participate in design discussions, but there isn't a lot of oversight or feedback given on the actual development process.

Looks like there's still a lot of work left on that front. I was trying to get some context for the 15000 miles number.

What is the average number of miles per accident for humans? Is it less than 15000? If yes, this is still good.
Re:Ask HN: What should an ideal developer interview process look like?

I think the idea about skipping 3 is that the applicant is choosing to apply to a particular company. That's implicitly saying that they're willing to work on that company's code.

Really excited to see the Ethics Elective being a requirement for the major. Would prefer even more than one course, to be honest, but it's a good start. I feel like the ethics of AI isn't getting enough attention and by the time it does it might be too late.
