UnitedHealth officials are pointing to their CEO's murder as a reason they cannot comment on an unrelated @propublica.org investigation into the company's practice of strategically limiting access to critical treatment for kids with autism.

"We are in mourning," a spokesperson wrote.

OJO: En el último año y medio se han iniciado 23,755 indagatorias por delitos de corrupción en México.

Son más de 40 DIARIAS.

Pero menos del 6% llegan a un juez y menos del 1% a sentencia.

Sigue la corrupción y sigue la IMPUNIDAD.

Pondering...

AI is a tool that can be helpful, but it seems to me that a lot of companies went "We need AI" without stopping to ask the why and figure out if it was relevant.

AI can help when writing things, but it is also used to poor out clones of job applications or talk abstract etc

People in (software) teams are not equal. This often leads to uncomfortable conversations during the tech leader training sessions I run, including the last one with Evelyn. It’s common for clients or participants to say, “But everyone in the team is equal.”

A thread....

New from 404 Media: Bluesky may have said it won't use user data to train generative AI, but someone else just published a dataset of million Bluesky posts for "machine learning research". Already very popular dataset, your data may be scraped www.404media.co/someone-made...

A Hugging Face employee made a huge dataset of Bluesky posts, and it’s already very popular.

Been having long and difficult days with a project, but that has come with a lot of learning for perf testing.

Love testing all the work I've done on functional/exploratory/automation testing and the side skills I've developed, but this perf testing/engineering path has been great so far

IMHO most bugs are not pure coding errors. Most are causing by not understanding data, customer needs, or the underlying constraints of a system (memory, IO, etc). LLMs do nothing to help any of these things.

Today I've finally had a chance to start looking for more people I followed on twitter, timeline's starting to look better.

I'm starting to contemplate a switch to my professional focus to perf engineering / SRE, so would appreciate being pointed to folks in that space.
