That is a pretty convincing and intuitive take, thank you.

So many allusions and claims such as your 'yes' in this thread, and yet, not a single actual link/reference to anything actually scientific/verifiable... Maybe you should actually share a link if you're so sure, instead…
There is a lot of scientific research/results based on actual measurable results and biology which supports the benefits of strength training. Can the same be said about meditation?
Many things have been practiced/studied for thousands of years - that alone isn't interesting or valuable imo. What are the objective benefits of meditation - what is the exact/specific process and what specifically…
The more explicit/detailed your plan, the more context it uses up, the less accurate and generally functional it is. Don't get me wrong, it's amazing, but on a complex problem with large enough context it will…
It's ability to test/iterate and debug issues is pretty impressive. Though it seems to work best when context is minimized. Once the code passes a certain complexity/size it starts making very silly errors quite often -…
You can run a web UI locally, without exposing it to the public internet, and access it remotely via SSH. > which works equally well on everyone’s machine Why are you so sure it runs equally well on everyone's machine?…
I've generally had better luck when using it on new projects/repos. When working on a large existing repo it's very important to give it good context/links/pointers to how things currently work/how they should work in…
Gemini weirdly messes things up, even though it seems to have the right information - something I started noticing more often recently. I'd ask it to generate a curl command to call some API, and it would describe…
Pure greed is stupid greed. Also, if the current level of AI investment and valuations aren't justified by market demand (I believe so), many of these people/companies are getting more money than they would without the…
Which is entirely unreasonable, and there's no need to make excuses or explain away this borderline psychopathy.
Communication is not hard, it's very easy, but there are actors who's goal is to obfuscate communication and prevent others from participating. At the end of the day it comes down to who the decision makers are and how…
The disconnect is more between long term business value, and short term benefit for the most parasitic and manipulative actors within the business. Engineering and business value go hand-in-hand in a healthy…
Apply that logic to any failed startup/company/product that had a lot of investment (there are maaaany) and it should become obvious why it's a very weak and fallacious argument.
I don't know what you're basing your 'minority' and 'most people' claims on, but seems highly unlikely.

Yawn This is your original statement exactly: > "The Bay Area is special because of said history/staying power - which has systemic downstream advantages that *cannot be replicated*."
