Throw an agent at it ...rofl 😂 (but I m crying inside 😭)honest take
A constant reminder that we're in the ugly quick & dirty MVP phase of AI. We didn't fix the bloated SI bench, we just gave it API keys and turned the agent bench into a bloated one.
"Throw an agent at it" is the new "throw headcount at it."
With all the drama going on with all things compute, security & the economy in general, I wager 2027 is the year we're going to start seeing themes that counter 'growth at all cost' arc of '25-'26.

If she is occupying your fridge - it is sharing problem
Why drag employer ?
Her company - her benefits
Google should probably be more mindful of who they hire.
My flatmate works at Google and brings home 1L cans of milk, fruits and God knows what else from the office.
It’s been three days since she returned from home, and she’s already managed to occupy the entire fridge.
Yes, Google lets you take food home. But that doesn’t mean basic civic sense and consideration for people you live with should go out the window. wtf google hire better people please or else people will look down at you.

Extending free travel for women to higher fare buses is a bad idea ig
Passive aggressive comments and stares .. last time they did - women couldn't negotiate why bus frequency was less or why it didn't stop
I don't if it is really empowering in this context

Indian iterviewers doing everything in their capacity to low ball an offer
A pattern I’ve noticed in my own interview journey:
Western interviewers almost always highlight my strengths and remind me that off days happen, even when it doesn't work out.
Indian interviewers often pick apart my smallest mistakes and leave me feeling small.
Growing up fighting for every opportunity built a scarcity mindset that turns interviews into power plays. I’ve met some genuinely great Indian interviewers too, but as a culture, we really need to bring more empathy into the room.

I have watched other interviews of Sun news Mahalaxmi many times when I have felt low - she built herself ground up
That press meet was crude - she was poised and strong - none should go through something like that
