There's still a cost/benefit to building and maintaining a service. LLMs make it easier to build, but the cost does not scale to zero.
The point is that we will still need senior level employees, but the way fresh grads get to that level is generally through entry level positions, experience and mentorship. I don't think we can expect the university…
Good thing that's exactly what the article suggests!
This happens regardless of which framework is used or even if no framework is used. Plenty of web developers do not understand how the browser or JS work at a deep level.
How does versioning work? After you fork an HTML app, is there a way to update it and get newer features without manual intervention? I'm thinking about the Kanban board example I saw in the demo video. It looks like…
> a mishmash of vibe coded stuff you don’t understand. No, there is a difference between "I wrote this code" and "I understand this code". You don't need to write all the code in a project to understand it. Otherwise…
Huh? The average working week in the EU is 37.5 hours a week, or 7.5 hours a day: https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/products-eurostat-news/w/d... Breakfast and lunch are not paid breaks in any EU country as far as I…
It's important to note that this is only really relevant advice for a specific type of startup that is still trying to rapidly iterate to find product market fit. Personally I find it incredibly annoying to work on and…
I don't. Regardless who posted it, discussion and constructive criticism is warranted in the comments.
I’d argue that the rich nations have an obligation to find a way to structure a less carbon intensive economy. The global south can benefit from the R&D that the west does. It’s not a forgone conclusion that the only…
Sure, all mega cities have even larger metro areas. I'm not pretending Chicago doesn't have a huge metro area. But my point stands: the European route has much higher catchment than your proposed USA route, even if you…
It's only misleading if you disregard the rest of my comment :-) You have identified a part of the USA with a decent density of cities - nice! That is exactly what I think. There are pockets where rail makes sense, and…
It's an average, so of course it says nothing about the distribution. I don't find that to be misleading, or at least I did not intend to insinuate that the USA is a perfectly distributed wasteland! It shows that while…
The scale of the country is an excuse in many cases. There are densely populated areas in many parts of the USA, but nearly all of Europe is densely populated. The EU has an average density of 112 people per square km…
That may well be true, but it's not what the article is about. The article is about individuals removing personal data from GenAI products. GenAI companies in many places have a legal responsibility to facilitate this.…
Did you read the article? There are cases where the data was explicitly not publicly shared. Why would this journalist have no expectation to privacy? https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2022/09/artis... Even…
"Willingness to work for a given range" gets exploited by employers at the expense of employees. It helps prop up structural (gender/race) pay gaps and breeds distrust among employees as some salaries inevitably leak…

The downside with this approach is that I often want the element itself to define how much space is around it. When you conditionally include elements in a layout, I find margin more expressive and less cumbersome than…
I'm not sure what point you're trying to make... basically everything we have will go to waste at some point. That does not mean we shouldn't reduce waste in the mean time. I'd wager that a large majority of iPhone…
As a frontend dev I can give you a few more reasons why I don't want to go back to writing templates as part of some backend framework: JavaScript is eventually needed for any non-trivial app. JS without a build…
I think it's easy to blame our inaction or weak policy on our political structures. While the American system certainly isn't perfect, we must work within it to address climate change urgently. Concluding that change…
There are two types of conflicts: literally changing the same lines of code (which you're talking about) and conflicts of business logic between features/modules (which I'm talking about). What if your PR depends on a…
I don't understand this, how could you be confident your changes won't break something if they are not based on the tip of a branch? What if other conflicting changes have been merged in the mean time?
