We are looking for a Developer Relations Engineer to help us evangelize Honcho to the broader dev community. This involves engaging the community online & in-person, building demos, writing documentation & blog posts, and working with the dev team to communicate feedback from the community.
Plastic Labs is a research driven product company working to radically
decentralize alignment for AI. Our flagship product, Honcho
(https://honcho.dev), serves as a bridge between users and AI systems. Honcho
creates detailed user profiles that instantly customize AI experiences across
multiple applications, ensuring each person's AI tools work according to their
specific preferences and needs.
Main thought is just that there are tons of situations that involve more than 2 people being in a discussion. some the of links I mentioned in the post get into this with the "facilitator" model.
Moderation/mediation is probably the most obvious thing "usecase." I'm more interested in just pushing the limits of what the language models can do and see what kind of things they'll do.
There's a corner of the internet interested in these models as a form of "alien intelligence." Don't immediately know what the application would be, but the results are super interesting

A mantra I heard recently that has been helping me with my own 3AM panics was "None of this matters and we're all gonna die". A bit Nihilist maybe, but has been helpful and just kind of removing the weight of the situation
Good thinking. Sometimes I have to remind my nerdy colleagues about what a true emergency is. A true emergency is when your granny is having a heart attack and has to be rushed to the hospital. When a big corporate website, that does millions of dollars of transactions is down at night it is NOT an emergency. They have to hire staff specifically for night shifts if they are so concerned about the money that they may lose.
Nice! That's a pretty well scoped and small enough scale with enough complexity project. My only thing is there is a human in the loop. I think with a competent interviewer they can usually assess the candidate well even if the task isn't that great, but often I see the leetcode style stuff sent as a take home with no human there.
On one hand I get it, there are just so many candidates to have to filter through, but agree don't think it does the best job.
Yeah like the CTF style questions a lot, and would love to see something similar for the more "creative/production" based jobs.
Don't think it would be very appropriate to give someone who's job it is to develop novel/new stuff a challenge like that, but at the same time there are parallels.
Often development jobs have you need to read unfamiliar code that can be poorly documented and then have to either fix or integrate something new into a system. Would love to see something to assess's a candidates ability there.
