Meta can never be redeemed, but it's still valid to admit that FB at one point had a very badass engineering culture.

They're one of 2 companies I would absolutely never work for (weapons etc aside). FB's recruiters hounded me so often I requested that they blackball me. The day they became Meta, I learned this by checking my email to see that they started trying to reach out again. I once again requested that they blackball me. This by extention taints OAI, the other company I'll never work for.

After a few hours with Glimmer I'm pretty impressed. It's better than the benchmark scores seem to indicate compared to Qwen 3.6 27B. I'm very excited for 3.8

Perpetually kneecapped by one of the worst management cultures I've ever seen

Would you say those badass engineers were/are managed by Careless People?

My impression is that they had created a system where management cared very deeply about "number go up", and very little about "which number?"

Meta doesn't need to be "redeemed". They have two of the most popular social media apps in the world. And theyll prob survive without ever having you work there

What is the other company that you would never work for?

He said OpenAI in the comment (if I read it correctly)
