Might really be your sector. Claude is massive in my organization, with no one writing code by hand anymore. The biggest struggle is keeping up with what is being done, reviewing and understanding.

I have an X3 and it’s great!

I think this idea is really cool but like others have said it’s the friction of syncing that stops me. I would love for CrossPoint to have a nightly sync :)

I imagine they are still good hires - however there is a real cognitive debt that happens when we code with LLMs in my experience.

It’s harder to internalise concepts because you don’t go through the struggle of understanding them and finding the mental links you need to remember later.

I notice this with people around me - all of them are doing more things, but I am also catching more issues when reviewing docs and code.

Obviously YMMV.

You can search for articles and you will find more info dating from the year 2000.

IIRC, there was a lengthy court “battle” to allow them to adopt, as the parents are a gay couple and that was not as openly accepted at the time. That’s why this story was so big back then and is still relevant today, it was a unique case.

As time goes by, people will feel like these changes are more and more what makes Paris great. It will be similar to how progress happened for Amsterdam and other cities. A slow conscious fight against car centric infrastructure, it’s not magic, it’s slow steady progress.

In the middle of the hype/doomsday articles about AI and our type of work, I decided to write a bit about my mental journey towards embracing LLM agents, and agentic engineering.

A moderate take on all the change going through our jobs. I hope you enjoy the read.

HN,

After listening to a really great talk from Prof. Horacio Falcao about the myths of win-win negotiations, I wrote down my notes to share.

Enjoy!

Hi HN!

I have had a few people around me say that it is really hard to connect in remote companies. It was not my experience at my last job, and I think a lot of it came from consistently engaging in virtual coffee breaks.

I know they are a divisive topic, so I wrote a bit about my experience with them, and I hope this shines some positive light over them - they should not be "mandated corporate fun".

Hope you enjoy the read, and hopefully engage more fully in them!

Thank you for sharing these sources with me! I will have a look.

I would not say I am trying to "manage up", but I am definitely trying to be a lot more active in my growth process. In the past I kept waiting for things to happen, and thought my manager would have all the answers. Now, I want to be an active part of that conversation and find the right path.

Hi HN,

First time sharing anything I have written.

Lately I have been wondering about how to be managed properly. I feel like I have not gotten what I wanted out of my career.

This is my attempt at learning more about the subject, and sharing with people that are going through a similar struggle.

Hope that it is useful. :)

I have never met anyone that has read that book besides me.

There is 2 of us now!

I recommend it too!
