> I really can't begin to describe how stupid I think you are for thinking that having that statement in your bio makes you a qualified engineer.
replyWell, I guess having "Two PhDs, Three masters degrees. Expert in everything.." in your bio makes you very smart!
I agree a bio is a bad proxy, and I'm not saying I'm amazing but I'm not THAT incompetent. Most of my GitHub is pre-LLM era; github.com/lionkor
replyEdit: And like a lot of tools, HOW you use them is just about as important as the quality of the tool itself. Of course the tools can produce massive amounts of bad quality slop, they can also produce fast, focused edits that make sense.
I'm not even trying to call you out, I'm sure you're solid.
replyOh I know, I'm just trying to say that I agree fully that a bio is a terrible proxy, while also showing what I think is a good proxy for skill (open source work before LLMs became this "good", for example). I'm a big proponent of show, don't tell, and LLMs have kind of ruined this.
