At this point the California gov is obviously trying to find the boundaries of how dumb of a law they can pass before everyone leaves the state.
You can vote without ID but you can’t buy the most researched supplement ever. Makes sense 👍

Similar to how 10x engineers definitely existed in the pre-AI era, 100x engineers exist now - for the same reasons.
Most average engineers don't even know the ceiling and are fully content with 4/10 speed and quality, simply to get their substantially inflated salary every month.
We are currently in a transition period where those engineers can still hide amongst the team but once we're past the inertia, those folks will need to substantially upgrade their skills or find a new industry to work in.
Software engineers are clearly at the forefront of this phenomenon (for better or worse). But the same will play out for all other computer based jobs.
I'm still not quite convinced there will be a company that makes a billion dollars with just one employee. But high eight figures should be possible.

It takes a lot of effort and learning to get to the next levels.
Most people don’t even know those exist.
Haven’t used the GitHub UI in weeks.
Guided reviews are such an obvious feature for agentic engineering.

The fact that many engineers in early 2026 still thought he’s wrong despite the step change in model capabilities in Q4 2025 is astonishing.
Those same engineers are still holding your company back by insisting models aren’t good enough.
In reality, those engineers are simply out of touch and don’t know how to use AI properly. Rendering them obsolete in the current job market.

Dario turned out to be right. Maybe even a little cautious. But look at the comments. All so very convinced that they knew more and better, and what an idiot he was.View quoted post on X
