We are paperclips
I thought this was a joke. Meta now has made 30-50% of software engineers on core teams become data labelers. Their job is "giving human feedback on AI-generated Github repos" in an org called Agent Data Optimization. Maybe we are all training data generators after all.

I was talking with someone at a startup building “the agentic layer” who was excitedly telling me about how their agents would seamlessly navigate/extract/aggregate data from a customer’s various SORs I just stopped him and was like “Why do you think these SORs would let you do that?” He didn’t have a good answer. He was just like “but it’s the customer’s data they can do what they want!” Lotta people about to learn the hard way how the Enterprise works
🤖🫰Enterprise apps from Microsoft to HubSpot are plotting to extract fees from the AI agents that access their services.

Last week, I published a deep dive on how I run system design interviews for data engineers, based on 100s interviews I’ve been involved in (both as an interviewee and as an interviewer) across four tech companies. The TL;DR: start at a high level, then progressively dive deeper

Got to put on my chef hat after a decade of being out of the game for a fundraiser dinner that my pastor asked me to lead. Nearly 500 plates, 70 people, only one month of planning and so much help from an amazing group of volunteers. Success!

when you invest in all of these companies can you make these kinds of tweets as a "third party observer?" yc is affiliated with replit, emergent, and taskade (at least Google says so)

the future is now old man
What the HECK is going on with tech? In the last week: Multiple cloud outages, x DMs totally broken, antigravity doesn't work, my watch is showing me 15 year old cal events, mac OS is a mess, email is spammed to hell and every nerd on here is talking like new AI is the second coming

We did a thing: three amazing data engineers and I answered the 10 most-asked questions on r/dataengineering. These genuine insights help you understand the current state of #dataengineering. Obviously, I'm biased since I pulled together the questions & answered them myself.

Can we talk about how fucking insane it is to be a C-Suite executive at a public company and casually drop that you hit your revenue target for the quarter and THEN a 2027 revenue guide in a fucking TikTik video to some broccoli-haired Zoomer?

A major career accelerant is to get exposure to how people a level above you think about capital allocation, prioritization, tradeoffs, risk etc It’s harder/slower to feel your way into operating at the next level of abstraction and complexity Much easier to see it happen live
