Which, honestly, is really depressing to me because there is so much unrealised potential that we have available–is it not enough that we built the LLMs unethically, and that they waste far more energy than they return in value?

We’ve seen technologies emerge out of the ashes, born from the tears of SREs long departed.

But, even more than that, when we contribute to open source, we become part of a community larger than us.So, when people leave, when they’re taken, when they’re lost, what do we do? How do our projects, and theirs, survive? More importantly, what does it mean to honor the memories and the people, the legacies, that have brought us to where we are today?How, on Earth, do we carry that torch? In this session, Hazel is going to reflect on her experiences of loss and grief.

This is particularly evident when we look at geology; from the mountains to the oceans, from the caverns to the prairies, and even the very heavens themselves. Everything changes.So, why fight it? Why not embrace the change? The cycle of life? Why not learn to love this evolution inherent in the nature of our universe itself? Why do we resist this so deeply in software?Is it our human nature, or something else?What would happen if we learned to lean in and appreciate the movements of the universe?

That’s awesome; you’ve got one hell of a challenge ahead of you. This role is extremely difficult to hire for.
