  • We get encouraged to try out AI tools for various purposes to see where we can find value out of them, if any. There are some use-cases where the tech makes sense when wielded correctly, and in those cases I make use of it. In other cases, I don’t.

    So far, I suspect we may be striking a decent balance. I have however noticed a concern trend of people copy-pasting unfiltered slop as a response to various scenarios, which is obviously not helpful.

    It’s mostly a skill issue for services that go down when USE-1 has issues in AWS - if you actually know your shit, then you don’t get these kinds of issues.

    Case in point: Netflix runs on AWS and experienced no issues during this thing.

    And yes, it’s scary that so many high-profile companies are this bad at the thing they spend all day doing



  • You prepare for these by doing specific exercises for them, sad as it may seem.

    Leetcoding problems? You grind them out for a month or two to prepare for doing them during interview loops.

    Mock interviews can help too, to get you better at handling the stress. You can use services/groups for these, or just go interview for random places you’re not necessarily planning to actually say yes to.
