I know. And it’s what I learned from Jack Palace on the Ripley’s Believe It Or Not TV show, where I first heard about it. Because it makes a really good story.
“She was a woman so sexism meant couldn’t be an architect. The only way she could live out her dream was just to build her own house over and over.“ isn’t nearly as fun.
The fact she was afraid of ghosts from people killed by her husband‘s invention just slots in so well as “evidence“. Add a crazy looking house and there you go, perfect tourist trap.
>DevOps won't want to support it? Burn down the company
Still true but you seem to blame the ops. I've been in a job where every dept was allowed free for all tech budgets. They would hire incompetent consultants to dump 3000hrs of work on devops then do it again next week and complain about how devops never gets anything done. Then 5 other departments would do the same thing.
You know how 99% of the work is in that last 5% of the project. Thats how all those consultants would leave everything.
I read that as a frustration with the disparity between "you build it, you run it" and the enterprise-y habit to co-opt terms from free-roaming developers and stripping them of all meaning.
You can still have a central team of operators. When they're expected to deploy and support applications from development or procurement teams, I'd argue that's something else than devops for better or worse.
what I meant with "DevOps won't want to support it" was someone saying this before DevOps had even been asked, and by someone who wasn't even on DevOps, who just assumed that they probably wouldn't like this sort of thing.
If this meeting doesn't include devs, I don't know what the context of anything in the article is supposed to be about. There are no major new ideas in business that don't involve software.
If it is not the case that "devs" is not functionally equivalent to saying "DevOps", then "DevOps" doesn't exist. You have an operations group, and you need their buy-in, so they should be invited to the meeting.
This is really cool. It reminded me of my first thought for an AI app was a No-Interface crm/order system. I was talking to my bro in sales and all he ever does is complain about what a pain computers are. This takes that idea to the next level.
llms were not quite there at the time maybe ill revisit.
That's exactly it! I've absolutely loved the empowered my AI coding has brought me. This is about bringing the same to the end user with no technical skills!
People that do light office work tend to have light office machines, which are very unlikely to have powerful NPUs or even a lot of RAM. Therefore with this minimal setup is it even feasible to do any sort of LLM based work locally on those machines, or will they all be dumb terminals connecting to hosted LLMs of the big companies?
This is also what I wonder, what practical applications can you actually do locally on something like a minimum spec NPU?
Why play this word game that has nothing to do with their point? I can write an email about TPS reports in my own voice without caring about the subject matter. That's authentic. I care about performing my job well and with individuality and (no pun intended) agency.
Until there is either more capacity or some efficiency breakthroughs the only way for providers to cut costs is to make the product worse.
