In the world of 10-digit error codes and countless hours spent troubleshooting, tech support professionals are the unsung heroes who keep our digital lives running smoothly. They are the patient, compassionate frontline warriors who, despite facing a relentless barrage of problems, never shy away from going the extra mile to fix them. There’s no denying,…
Tesla’s Self-Driving Video Is About More Than Self-Driving Cars On April 9th, Elon Musk posted a short clip to X with a simple caption: “Tesla driving itself around LA.” No staged demo environment. No closed course. No safety driver with hands hovering over the wheel. Just a Tesla navigating Los Angeles city streets without any…
The Real Reason Your AI System Is Broken (It’s Not the Model) Every week I watch engineers spend hours debating which model to use. GPT-4o versus Claude 3.5 versus Gemini 1.5 Pro. Benchmark comparisons, pricing calculators, latency tests. It’s not that those things don’t matter. They do, at the margins. But in my experience shipping…
Gemini 2.5 Pro Just Changed What “Usable Context” Means The AI coding race has a new front-runner, at least this week, and it’s worth paying attention to why. Google shipped Gemini 2.5 Pro recently, and the benchmark numbers are genuinely hard to dismiss. It’s sitting at the top of the LMSys leaderboard for coding tasks,…
Google just shipped Gemini 2.5 Pro, and the benchmark numbers are hard to ignore. It’s sitting at the top of the LMSys leaderboard for coding tasks, outperforming GPT-4o and Claude 3.7 Sonnet on several software engineering benchmarks. On SWE-bench Verified, it’s hitting numbers that weren’t realistic from any model twelve months ago. But here’s what…
Plausible Is Not the Same as Correct There is a distinction circulating in engineering circles right now that I think deserves more attention than it’s getting. It comes from a piece by @KatanaLarp that’s been making rounds on X, and the framing is sharp enough that I want to expand on it here. LLMs don’t…

Career-Ops: The Engineer Who Turned Job Hunting Into a Systems Problem Most people treat a layoff like a weather event. Something that happens to you, that you wait out. You polish the resume, open LinkedIn, and start clicking Apply on anything that looks plausible. Three months later you’ve sent out 200 applications and heard back…
Netflix VOID: Object Removal Was the Easy Part Every few months a video AI tool drops that makes editors collectively exhale. Netflix’s VOID is one of those tools. But it’s not doing what you think it’s doing, or rather, it’s not stopping where most tools stop. The headline is object removal from video. Point at…
