Ok I actually like the idea of flatter orgs and player-coaches a lot.

However, do we really need them to AI-wash the fact that as a lot of companies, this company over-hired during ZIRP? Do we really need them to AI-wash the fact that the crypto hype is gone, therefore their business is smaller? “Company as intelligence” and “AI productivity” are just buzzwords so their stock price doesn’t suffer.


I was a IC/manager for a few months. Spending all day in meetings (there are actual things you have to do to manage 15+ people) and then going home and coding for 2-3 hours every night burned me the hell out and I left that company, good riddance to bad rubbish.

Companies above a certain scale- let's use Dunbar's Number as a good threshold- need full time managers to handle the necessary information flow through the company. Middle-manager is actually something that AI can't do yet, because their main job is to figure out what things everyone else around them needs to know (inside and outside their team), which requires a theory of mind that current LLM's just don't have. Is this policy change worth telling your team about? Is this feature creep worth telling other teams about? That is the decision that managers have to make dozens of times a day, and it requires a model of what various people know, to know whether this is important to them or not.


Interesting perspective


XD


Staying pretty much the same, at least with the current state of technology (just way more bottlenecked by this, but with the same process). What have you seen?


Agree! I'm not saying that people are ditching all of Agile, just certain parts of Agile. Let's call it Agile 2.0 or something completely different


Could be the case! Without being to strict on the terminology I just wanted to give a clear message: Our planning processes and time range expectations are changing completely


I built this because I just thought it would be cool to show which LLMs respond faster (between GTP-4o mini, Claude 3 Haiku, and Gemini 2.5 Flash) and show some metrics (TTFT, avg tok/s, total time, and nTokens)


Are you open to UTC -5?


This very interesting blog post got me thinking how English would look like in 2100 or 2200 driven by the changes of the internet and AI. Spelling matters less so alphabet gets reduced? Simpler grammar as it gets more spoken worldwide? Emojis as punctuation?

window unseal nite no log. odd.


Hey! I just wanted to build this to show where gaming is going thanks to this AI Boom (choose your own adventure, but opinionated enough to move numbers, get items, have a game end, etc.)

Don't consider this true educational material! haha
