Let’s actually say things that are realistic instead of coming up with shallow delusional dismissals. The engineer is pretty high ranking and he’s talking about a team of engineers at a company with a famously high bar that many engineers on HN wouldn’t be able to get in.
You may disagree. But disagree realistically. Have a valid reason why you disagree instead of attacking their competence.
Or if after you thought about it and can’t find adequate reasoning other than google engineers are total shit…. Then maybe consider that your opinion is incorrect.
There is no code, there isn't even a prompt to try and replicate it, the dismissal is just as realistic as the article.
The article says the prompt was 3 paragraphs, so why is it not shared? Without that it's just a talking head presenting a nothingburger. Put up or shut up.
See? This is a valid argument: “Where’s the fucking evidence?”
Not, “All google engineers are clearly incompetent even though google has one of the highest bars in hiring.”
