How does private equity businesses operating better improve our retirement savings? Wont they just improve the PE fund performance and benefit only the investors ?I am genuinely curious as its very difficult to find public information on how they actually function

In my 20 years of engineering, all my distributed systems knowledge was learnt in a period of two years under two amazing engineers working in two failed startups

One was like those legendary OG dogmatic distributed systems software engineer that you can meet and the other was an OG data platform person. They have zero social media presence but they have guaranteed jobs whomever they call.

I learnt my transactions and services from engineer 1 and my analytic/data platform fundamentals from engineer 2

I have made more money in the enterprise land but I think the two failed startups did 10x more to help me grow as an engineer

I am rather confident that an AI cannot come close to what I do and my management knows that

Why is this sloppy. The author is not saying that AI is bad but that the current capital being invested in the UD is mostly betting on AI.

If you remove AI then what is left?

   you're _Google_, your own work is always at risk of getting co-opted by others, and external people will view and criticize your work accordingly.
This rang so true to me and it probably applies for all large tech companies. I have realized that getting attached to a particular project is bad for my mental health.

I agree! I have not had the opportunity to work at Google or Facebook but at my current job I always take up forsaken projects as that usually has a lot of up potential and very less down potential. Everybody wants to work on the shining new tech but no one wants to work on that maintenance project which is actually is creating those new tech opportunities in the first place.
