Meetings with shared frosted glass (with the MeetingGlass app) can be a great solution for this. It is relaxed meetings with mutual visibility and frosting, like when using a physical frosted glass. It feels a lot more comfortable and a lot friendlier than meetings using the mainstream video apps. Maybe invisible teammates will be willing to become visible with frosted-glass video meetings.
Well, have you tried having stress-free virtual frosted glass meetings (the MeetingGlass app) with your colleagues? Maybe you wouldn't have such numbers if you did.
Isolation. But there is a solution: virtual frosted glass video meetings (via the MeetingGlass app). You can be behind a shared layer of virtual frosted glass with your colleagues. It works like the real frosted glass: mutual visibility and frosting.
The author mentions loneliness of remote work, but he didn't do a research of tools against that. For example, there is a tool called virtual frosted glass video meetings (via the MeetingGlass app) that allows you to be behind a shared layer of virtual frosted glass with colleagues. It functions like the physical frosted glass and makes you feel relaxed while being on video.
I am afraid the software engineering industry is increasingly becoming like the music industry, which was killed by being able to get any song for free. Open source, free, fremium apps, lower threshold of entry due to AI, all of that is killing the market. Soon, you will not be able to make any money out of it unless you're a big player.
What field? They brought back up that old sci-fi term AI specifically for neural networks to create a false impression among people that this is a technology that can "think."
They called it AI instead of calling it neural networks and therefore provoked unrealistic expectations for this technology. Criticism will never end because of the fraudulent naming of this technology.
You can use virtual frosted glass video meetings if you want to have more presence with employees. This problem is solvable, so stop scapegoating remote work.
Nope, you'll get a lawsuit for discrimination if you explicitly test for IQ. That's why they do it implicitly. The scheme is very simple: hire people with the highest IQ, and since they have high IQ, they will figure at least something out.
You can talk to them at any moment and ask them what they are working on without getting to them through calling, texting, etc. Real-time communication is much easier than async communication.
Because they can't see them. Seeing is believing. They don't know that they can have them behind a virtual frosted glass via the MeetingGlass app. With mutual visibility and mutual (un)frosting - just like through physical frosted glass. Such frosted privacy feels great and is equal for everyone.
The reason for things you've described is that LLMs are forgetful. They just can't remember the context and have to research the code almost every time you prompt. Even the code it itself wrote. This leads to re-implementation of the same features with different code, code duplicates, missing the implementation of corner cases, etc.
A bit of self-promotion does not hurt anybody. Stop whining and skip such comments. The assault on self-promotion on Reddit has already buried countless good projects and startups.

It is too easy to ignore the timer, that's why I think forcing breaks is a good idea. In the app I built for this, you can remove black screen if you really want but in an inconvenient way so that it is not too easy.
