Isnt that the most fair thing for them to do?

It's better to do a hiring freeze before the RIF. Otherwise people have left jobs to come work for you and are now stranded.

Perhaps try to space out hiring and firing a bit more

You know, hire, stop hiring, then start firing


you don't even get a severance that way. People moved for a job, then got stranded without even getting a first paycheck.

Haha, this made me chuckle so much. That's basically how it goes for me also. Even asking myself, why don't you just do it, then doing something else, feeling guilty about not sending the mail first.

so, they are approved, which means they were most likely reviewed. yet you still think the software cannot be trusted of that and even want to name and shame a company. utterly stupid.

Yes. If a company is running vibeslopped compilers to build their production artifacts I absolutely want to know which one it is, so I can protect myself from their software.

> utterly stupid

That's completely uncalled for.

EDIT: What exactly do you mean by:

> most likely reviewed.

Let's say every line was actually reviewed. That's still nowhere near good enough. The changes are being reviewed by the wrong people. Not the maintainers of the project, just some random folks who have inherited a vibecoded fork.


yup. I was taught in school in Europe to admire Americans and their might. Only in the last few years I've come to understand they are maybe one of the worst western countries there is. Countless wars, even under Obama, so it's not a president x or y thing. It's culcture. I would go as far as to say I'd rather visit Russia than America at this point. America is great at hiding their true colors and we've been properly brainwashed in the West by this.

Russia is still whole other level of evil compared to America.

If nothing else, Americans at least put some value on the lives of their own troops - when the F15 got shot down in Iran, the launched a massive rescue operation. Back in the 70's public pressure over casualties pretty much ended Vietnam war. Meanwhile Russia in Ukraine is sending just meatwaves of young Russian men, one after another to die for nothing, far surpassing death toll of USA in Vietnam, and their government & most citizen seem to be okay with that. That is what I find most terrifying about Russia. The utter lack of compassion and care towards their fellow Russians that just happen to be poorer, or live in the provinces rather than rich cities. Don't get me even started on how they treat their troops, the culture of corruption and abuse in the armed forces...

Both countries are ruled by psychopaths, but Russia is way, way more rotten as a society.


those are not verified. I've tried forgecode and I cannot believe they didn't do something to influence the benchmarks

Yup, they were found to be sneaking the answer key using agents.md

Show us some reciepts in the form of a exported session. I've been a heavy user of Claude up untill the end of feb, but switched to Codex because it's better at handling large code bases, following the "plan", implementing the backend changes in Zig. If you ask Claude to do a review of the code and suggest fixes, then let it Codex review it, then again ask Claude, it will 99% of the time say. Oh yes you are right, let me fix that.

Either you are using it wrong or you are working in a totally different field.


have you tried to recover it with git reflog?

so, interfering with elections is "kindergarten", compared to leaking secrets?


unfortunately the bigger models are pretty slow in token speed. The memory is just not that fast.

You can check what each model does on AMD Strix halo here:

man, cmon. a little more effort.


Sure thing. For those who don’t know, wiring money like this is a good way to lose your money.

https://consumer.ftc.gov/articles/what-know-you-wire-money


Wire transfer is a bank transfer, not money wire to Western Union and like.


Yeah I agree the FTC article could be more clear here. I think they call out Western Union because those are tools that are commonly used by scammers.

But let’s be clear: the risks are the same if you are wiring money through Western Union or wiring through any other bank. Once you wire the money you do not have the same protections as other payment mechanisms. And if you don’t get the product as described, you are likely out your money. This is compared to other forms of payment like credit cards where you are protected. With a credit card you can issue a charge back to the seller and get your money back in the case of fraud. With a wire transfer you cannot.
