> What I am going to be most interested in is what happens in the SRE/Sysadmin world over the next few years as more AI-generated code hits prod in organizations that don't have adequate review & oversight functions.
You kindof answered the question yourself. Humans write the tests and then go tell the AI to write the solution which passes the test.
The dump of english wikipedia is 26gb compressed and completely usable with that compressed format plus a small index file.
That's small enough to live on most people's phones. It's small enough to be a single BluRay. Maybe Wikipedia should fund some mass printings.
What you do not get however is any media. No sounds, images, videos, drawings, examples, 3D artifacts, etc etc etc. This is a huge loss on many many many topics.
I recently had a performance review at a FAANG. One engineer on my team has spent the past 3 years working on a complex infrastructure migration which involved about 20 engineers. The migration was completed last year and saved the company some opex costs.
I on the other hand spent 3 weeks optimizing our core service and reduced 2x the opex costs of the large complex 3 year migration.
In my yearly review my manager acknowledged my impact, but said I need to solve more complex problems to get to Staff Engineer. I protested saying that my 3 weeks of work had a larger impact than 20 engineers over 3 years, but he told me that is just how it works.
Modern AMD processors are basically a bunch of smaller processors (chiplets) glued together with an interconnect. So yes single chip nodes can have many numa zones.
There are standards but actually designing a sane network architecture, buying all of the correct network hardware, and configuring all of the software to properly use that hardware is hard. At my company we have a team of about 20 people whose job it is to just design, install, and run the network.

I think fundamentally it comes down to energy for me. I have very little energy in the morning so I am not going to harness the pre-work daylight hours to do something outside like taking my dog to the park, biking, or running. For me I don’t actually start feeling energized until maybe 9-10AM.
After work however, I have much more energy to do things outside with the daylight.
