Many people at RenFaires and music festivals use Stripe. This is going to wipe them out as customers. Also fully remote businesses. It's clear to me Stripe wants brick and mortar businesses, or online businesses that have an office. Wh

This should provoke swift, hard, and overwhelming reactions from G7 countries. The undersea cables have to be inviolate or we'll see this happen all the time, with major negative impacts to internet stability and effective internationa

I do not see us reach AGI within the next ten years at last, probably in the next 20. Deep Learning and LLMs have taken us down a road that provides many such cheat codes, but is not AGI, and is ultimately is self-limiting in getting to pro

Some of the other commenters hit the nail on the head. The reason is the removal of women's rights previously taken as a given. Also a consideration is the negative view/actions of some police in these states toward anyone who is

There are situations where no bugs is an important requirement, if it means no bugs that cause a noticeable failure. Things such as planes, submarines, nuclear reactors. For those there is provably correct code. That takes a long time to wr

Kudos. Making a video like this is hard, because you bare your soul and discuss what you did that you could have done better. In an effort to help you in the future, here are some things I noticed: - 'just quickly fix this'. I can

I agree with the opinion, but not the timeframe. I would say the quality has nosedived over the last 8 years, based on my experience as the tech interviewer for potential new hire interviews across the last 12 years on different projects. T

I would like to see not just code, but also a discussion of the tradeoff decisions made when creating that code, and a discussion of what could be done or looked at next. Even with an example written for an article, if it's non-trivial

Some thoughts... 1. There is no tech stack in the world you can safely deploy and forget about for months or years. Security updates are needed, OS updates cause changes, browser technology changes, and your users change. Even setting aside
