Build features faster. Granted, this exposes the difference between people who like to finish projects and people who like to get paid a lot of money for typing on a keyboard.
Why does understanding computer science principles and software architecture and instructing a person or an ai on how to fix them require typing every line yourself?

Yes that captures it well. Feldera is an incremental query engine. Loosely speaking: it computes answers to any of your SQL queries by doing work proportional to the incoming changes for your data (rather than the entire state of your database tables).
If you have queries that take hours to compute in a traditional database like Spark/PostgreSQL/Snowflake (because of their complexity, or data size) and you want to always have the most up-to-date answer for your queries, feldera will give you that answer 'instantly' whenever your data changes (after you've back-filled your existing dataset into it).
I know you trying to mock Marcus, but the reality is that all the big LLM providers have been shifting to integrating symbolic reasoning into their models for over a year now since they noticed that scale-alone is a dead-end.
Also DeepMind's AlphaFold, which won the nobile price, is neuro-symbolic AI - so I think both of those points very much justify Marcus's long criticism of pure subsymbolic LLM "AI" as a path to real causal reasoning.
And you can't escape. Facebook is less of a concern because you can just not go to the website and you're good. The US Postal Service is the basis of an entire huge industry devoted to finding you at your physical location to try to scam you.
> You searched for people who do what you need to have done, found me, looked at what I've worked on and determined I'd be a good fit and you reached out? That's the number one way to get me to want to work for you.
No, their email templating tool finds an old throwaway repo you did 6 years ago, templates its name into a form email, and invites you to join a cattle call to be whiteboarded along with the rest of the shmucks
I'm already seeing a degradation in experience in Gemini's response since they've started stuffing YouTube recommendations at the end of the response. Anthropic is right in not adding these subtle(or not) monetization incentives.
This very forum was founded by a VC who had great success recruiting 22 year olds with fancy diplomas to automate away the job of the guy who copied the numbers from the TPS report pdf attachment into excel.
I didn't see people on here ranting and taking up the flag of revolution for the TPS report excel paster guy's job that they were automating away with their web2 SaaS startup.
But wait- that guy himself was automating away the job of the lady who used to physically Xerox the TPS report and put it in the filing cabinet down the hall, but that lady was automating the job of the secretary who used to re-type all those TPS reports.
It's automatic filing cabinets all the way down, and ranting because your little slice of the filing cabinet automation machine has been made redundant is a bit silly.
