There has been no sharing of knowledge, code, project updates lately. The signs are here

Years of systemetic nepot$sm, favoritsm (interviewing, hiring, firing, layoffs, promotions, rewarding etc) concentrated Intel workforce from a particular Asian country ($nd$a). It's a gang mentality that they are proud off
Absolutely fire those guys!
Fire Them!
Um... That started when Craig Barrett became CEO and has continued ever since.
Your coworkers will steal all of your work, sell it as their own to their crony managers and you'll be shown the door. Seen it happen many times.
Don't trust your manager(s)--they WILL lie cheat steal.
At some point it’s cheaper to do a re-write rather than maintain a tower of cr-p.
What I’m reading here is that Intel engineers deliberately write brittle, difficult to maintain code for job security.
No wonder Intel is cooked in the HIGHLY competitive semiconductor industry.
@ac: I doubt that. I had the gall to use basepath+myfile rather than os.path.join(basepath, myfile) so when a coworker updated basepath and didn’t end it with a slash the code broke quite against my wishes. I don’t think current LLM’s catch that level of detail
AI will clean that sort of thing up when you Vibe Code it again from scratch ….

It's probably due to the fact Intel has had layoffs over and over with the same results. Only thing that has not changed is management and people wonder why no one wants to share anything. Graphics has failed, server failed, discreet graphics failed, CFO failed and ELT as a whole has failed. For folks making high 6 figures you would expect the level of accountability would be higher... nope they are still there and will likely be there again after these layoffs.
Honestly fu-k everyone at this point. I am out for myself. And truth is everyone is. You are too. Just admit it and accept. And let the hunger games begin.
No sharing of knowledge, code and projects was going on 8 years ago.
That's why Intel failed. Protecting turf was more important than getting product out the door.
AI will resurrect Intel. AI will perfect 18A. AI will clean up those faulty X86 designs. No need for Tan, AI can do everything.
Enjoy your AI mythologies.
I heard some chatter about the first week of April.
AI will de-obfuscate your code.
Enjoy your ISP.
In my mind I'm imagining someone wiring their code with as many obscured references as possible to as many scattered tools, apps, and routines as possible. ;)
