The founder, Sahil Lavina, says it was taken away from Dog after only 55 days

Sahil Lavingia has Diaries published List his time as a member in The workforce from Elon Musk Doug. It is a short reading – Dog Stint has lasted from Lavingia only 55 days – but it provides new details about the interim government organization formed by President Trump’s executive order.

Lavingia is a known name in Silicon Valley from his days as an early employee in Pinterest, to his current disturbance as the founder of Jumarf, A platform for creators can sell their goods. It is also A well -known investor for seeds and owners.

He joined Doge as a software engineer for the Veterans Affairs Department (VA) in mid -March, as he wrote. What emerges from his account is his surprise that the government agency, which amounts to 473,000 employees, has strict rules about who can target workers’ demobilization; Soon you know that all things in the Ministry of Old Warriors Affairs were not effective as imagined. He also regretted that Dog itself is not a well -full machine.

As a volunteer he had a salary of $ 0, he was immediately assigned to specify “wasted” contracts and people who should receive VA. But he was surprised by the discovery of aspects such as seniority and the veteran situation of the person (this was the Ministry of Old Warriors Affairs, after all) who could target. Performance can be taken into account in the list, at Lavavia.

As described Dog consultant role Like MCKINSEY Administration Adviser, Doge said not responsible for the actions taken by Orgs. He says: “Dog had no direct authority. The real decisions came from the agency’s heads appointed by President Trump, who was wise to allow Dog to act as a” autumn man “to make unimaginable decisions.”

This is similar to what Musk was publishing this week to Washington Post. Musk description Doug as “boy” in the capital Blame for every decision that is not popular.

Lavia said that he joined Dog after his campaign for Barne Sanders in 2016 because he was dreaming of writing a law for the government that widely helped people. Since Doge Missives did not take much time, he said he worked on projects interested in it, including the Chatbot UX reform that is based on LLM in VA.

He said he built a somewhat long list of things in a period of work less than a month, but he did not get a chance to carry out huge projects, such as “improving UX from deposit claims from veterans or treating claims/speed/speed.”

He wrote, “I have never been able to obtain approval to charge anything to production that would have improved American life – while providing money for US taxpayers.”

However, he gave permission to open a large source of his work. His work guarantees a tool that has wiped the internal PDF files for the conditions “related to Dei, sexual identity, COVID policies, and climate initiatives, who are conditional,” a description On the tool page, as well as the tools that have been used for LLMS to analyze contracts, and a tool to build ORG charts.

He also made notes about the lack of organization in Doug itself. “I wondered why there was no DOGE software playing book with all our learning, in general, I was surprised that there was no knowledge of the dawj. Every engineer started from zero.”

He was heterogeneous from Duji on the 55th day after he discussed his work There with a correspondent from Fast Company. “I got the shoe from Duj,” he wrote. “Soon after the publication, my arrival was canceled without warning.”

However, in an FC interview, he also said that working near the Ministry of Affairs of the Old Warriors taught him, although it was slow as a giant institution, but it is still “working.”

“I would like to say that the cultural shock is often a lot of meetings, not many decisions,” he says. “But frankly, it is somewhat good – because the government is working. It is not ineffective as I expected, to be honest. I was hoping to get more victory.”

His experience completely embodies the dilemma of preserving the massive modern government agencies because it remains functional. Although all taxpayers want to waste less, the government can definitely take advantage of more programmers immersed in the latest technology, and the Silicon Valley volunteers may be invalidated and they are building an emerging company from the zero point.

Lavavia did not immediately respond to our request for an additional comment.
