So modern software development:

Wild. The ability to combine images and text, and then generate a thing that looks like what you drew, but acts like what you said... and then you can just paste the HTML/JS right into whatever??
It's going to be a while before society really internalizes these new capabilities.

This is my favorite episode so far. I am getting pretty hyped on LLMs as a tool for improving my own productivity, but also a little bit scared. They are getting *crazy* good.

GPT-3.5-turbo is being sassy today. "Sorry, as an AI language model, I cannot write Go code."

My coworker Jason and I have started a podcast called "Smart and Snark".
If you like listening to people talk about databases, tech, startups, software teams, etc. please check out @SmartSnarkCast available on Youtube and all the normal podcast joints.
There's no clearer view of a developer's descent into madness than the series of increasingly desperate commit messages they make while trying to debug CI.
In this episode Matt Jaffee talks about FeatureBase, an open source bitmap database that allows you to query and analyze massive data sets at interactive speeds and the work they have done to simplify integration with the rest of your data platform. dataengineeringpodcast.com/featurebase-bi…
So apparently a poor design decision I made on BoltDB in 2013 took down @Roblox for 3 full days last year. Damn. I'm sorry to all the folks at Roblox and @HashiCorp that probably pulled all-nighters to debug that issue. blog.roblox.com/2022/01/roblox…
Like everyone else, we're hiring engineers @molecula
Frontend, backend, Devops, SDET
Unlike everyone else, you'll get to work on a truly novel database engine that powers orders-of-magnitude performance improvements. Early career welcome. molecula.com/careers/
