Yeah, after the first month of jj, I abandoned git forever, because it's already so much better. There are some hiccups, though. I switched over to colocation for all repos, because too many things expect git directories to be where

You talk a lot about what customers want, but they want apps only because Apple makes PWAs so unpleasant. There are some tech limitations (games might be tougher), but most of what makes PWAs suck is Apple. In another timeline, Apple chose

More likely, users want something that works, is a good experience, and don't care about apps _per se_ at all. If Apple wasn't hamstringing PWAs, they might be viable for more categories of software.

The extra danger is when we don't know it comes from an LLM. If we think a human wrote it, we're less skeptical.

If flat-earthers had the numbers and motivation of revisionist neo-nazis, they might very well be able to decrease popular (not academic) understanding of astrophysics.

Why do you think this? Nobody will go to jail. Maybe some paltry fines will be paid and some CEOs ousted, and that's about it.

Sure, but tipping points matter. If the amount of AI slop causes people's behaviors to change, then it's still interesting/concerning. We're already on the verge of losing reliable search engines. Will this bring back 90

So? I've been in the exact same situation as you, as CTO of my startups. Just because some things you wrote don't apply to early employees doesn't mean many things don't apply...which is what I said.

Tenure/cliffs/etc should already take care of that by gating access to shares/options/etc in the first place. No need to add an extra tenure complication to liquidity as well.

IANAL, but if you only have options, and not stock, do you still have standing to sue?

You also sacrifice unemployment benefits in many cases, which costs businesses time to administer and risks fines and higher insurance rates. So, a lot of businesses will pressure you to quit instead of being fired, since it's easier f

What are these mental gymnastics, and why are you bothering with them? If you're being sarcastic, it's not coming through over the internet. It sounds like either a variant of "might makes right", or irrelevant linguisti

Might as well say "Toyota showcases new buggy carriage adaptable to different horse breeds" for all this will do to stop climate collapse. In the 90's, Toyota was a top car manufacturer in terms of safety and efficiency. Now,

Interestingly, there's already some research about how bad people are at generating random numbers, so if the author tests that at the follow-up, I'd expect him to be both repetitive and predictable. I haven't looked at the p

Interesting. Usually the reluctance comes from people confusing Java the language with JVM the platform.

Uhh, yes, I'm familiar. I write Clojure for a living. What's misleading is touting the acronym "REPL", instead of touting why that's important . Everyone who's used to the weaker "REPLs" of other lan

Yes, touting the REPL of Lisps is a bit misleading. It's better to say that Lisps and Smalltalk(s) are deeply interactive programming experiences, in ways that most languages aren't yet.

The comment you're replying to isn't debating that point, I think. They're saying "you got the precise acronym wrong, but what you did write is still technically correct".

Right, but that means it's not a decent starting measure. To me, "decent starting measure if there is no appetite for something more in-depth" sounds like "just drop it in, it's enough to get started, we'll fig
