Snapshots are the weekly (at least they used to be, I think they're less frequent now) development snapshots - they are explicitly pre-beta versions that you have to opt in to.

Then in this hypothetical world you could mount \\0010-somehost.win.site1.mycorp.local\Share01 to /Share01 rather than T:

I feel like you could probably have the AI write a script that uses the API to do the same thing, except this time you have code you can test rather than relying on the probabilistic machine every time you do a trade.

I can't see or reply to the original comment since it's been nuked, but I can infer what it was saying.

I actually started studying part-time for a mathematics degree earlier this year, and I don't plan on stopping that now. Having a degree does open doors at more traditional companies and government jobs, and it would also make immigration to another country sometime in the future a lot more straightforward. There are definitely benefits, even though I'm established in my career!

I'm honored you're responding! I've received a few leads from this comment that I'm chatting with, and it's been a major morale boost for me.

At this point in my life and the economy I'm not particularly looking for such early-stage startups like Magnetic (especially w/ relocation to SF), but thanks for giving me the heads up!

I had OpenCode doing most of my substantial code changes for me, once I figured out what the code changes had to be. (so, it saved me typing but not thinking) I also vibe-coded (really slop-forked TBH, that's the Cloudflare way after all) an internal tool that our team used. I definitely was not a small user of our AI tools, though I know that there are others with significantly more.

Location: Austin, TX

Remote: Remote/Hybrid/On-Site

Willing to relocate: To California, Massachusetts, Canada, or Europe for the right opportunity

Technologies: Go (Golang), Rust, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, SQLite, NixOS, Cloudflare (everything, the whole Cloudflare Developer Platform - I would call myself an expert at this, as I've dogfooded most new developer platform products as they released), Kubernetes

I just got laid off by Cloudflare, looking for a position doing infrastructure & backend work. I spent my time at Cloudflare working on the Waiting Room, Health Checks, and Load Balancing products, three distributed systems which crunch global data to make decisions globally. I'm happy to move down-stack as well (e.g. to systems programming, especially in Rust).

Welp, looks like I’m affected. If anyone is looking to hire a systems engineer with distributed systems and load balancing experience, shoot me an email at <anything>@piperswe.me :/

I’ll update this with a resume link tonight…

Spoilers:

Question 1 had such different styles. I preferred the style the AI was using, but that was purely a stylistic preference.

Question 3 was a toss-up. They both felt fine, and funny enough they both had a "not just X, it's Y" pattern.

Those were the only two where I clicked the AI version - for the other three, it was obvious which was AI.

Correct, for the most part it uses the binaries distributed by the upstream project.
