It isn’t that he made AI wrapper, it’s that he pointed out the king has no clothes with it.
It's a small club, and the rest of us aren't in it.
Or at least bring back on-site interviews.
Why is it not OK to cheat on a system design interview? Why is it not OK to completely make up a story to make you look amazing when they ask about your background?
In the article he thinks companies should review past work and ask interviewees about that instead, but what would he say if there was an app for cheating that way?
Everyone does this
Just today, I've seen a twitter thread and this post. Searching for him also shows a Gizmodo article from today.
And it really seems to be a case of trying to stir controversy for engagement.
...but then I see the actual stuff he posts on X, his YouTube video, his overall "informal content", and it's blatantly antagonistic, performative, and basically edge-lord bs. I just can't help but think: this guy just needs to get bodied.
So while I agree with his "crusade", I also can't help but not trust a thing he says, and have to assume every justification he gives is made up after the fact. Am I off target here?
I didn't follow him then but he kept coming up in my feed and there was something about his focus and message that seemed as amusing and sincere as it was egotistical and immature.
Now I'm still not convinced of his angelic qualities but more sympathetic to his mission and at least a little of his showboating seems courageous.
