What's the rush? Building good things takes time.

Exactly, every PR starts with:

1. What’s the goal of this PR and how does it further our project’s goals?

2. Is this vaguely the correct implementation?

Evaluating those two takes a few seconds. Beyond that, yes it takes a while to review and merge even a few line diff.

"Open source has always worked on a system of trust and verify"

Not sure about the trust part. Ideally, you can evaluate the change on its own.

In my experience, I immediately know whether I want to close or merge a PR within a few seconds, and the hard part is writing the response to close it such that they don't come back again with the same stuff.

(I review a lot of PRs for openpilot - https://github.com/commaai/openpilot)

you can have fun while solving real problems. it might even be a requirement

comma four, baby!!

glad you're enjoying it :)

we hire through https://comma.ai/leaderboard and i think our interviews are relatively chill

never heard of anyone asking for anything like that

hey, CPO of comma here.

happy to answer questions about the four :)

roughly speaking, the latest policy models trained in it are indistinguishable from openpilot release on 15-30 mins of driving, but you start to notice the subtle issues (e.g. turn cutting) on a few hours of driving.

we'll definitely do some good writeups and/or talks once it's shipped.

correct, we’re a little over 20k total
