This is the third Jane Street-related thing I've seen on here this week after not seeing much about them that I can remember any time recently beforehand I'm aware of their use of OCaml and probably do other things that might be of interest to the HN community, but it seems like a lot in a very short time out of nowhere. Is there some sort of marketing push or something going on?

Pretty vague blogpost tbh. Apart from the fact that it's changing, it doesn't really describe much

This sort of announcement has made me very happy I left the software world. I still code as part of my job, but it's not my main part and luckily I don't have to use LLMs are part of my job. I still code 100% by hand.

In some ways, although I detest AI, it has clarified the sort of people and organizations I want to associate with. Any latent characteristics that I abhor have been made obvious with the existence of AI and of course, I would want nothing to do with Jane Street.
