Relax, while mentioning the real world without any criticism for the soundness of the solution is absolute nonsense, some would say idiotic, thinking only in the absolute best solution given your narrow world view is not any better.

I'm sorry to be that guy, but can we reintroduce a good dose of skepticism in our mental diets? BYD was already selling a ton of cars when the oil prices were "low", of course there's some very creative accounting busine

Tech directors, CEOs, managers, etc tend to be people with a certain personality and ( learned behaviors/thinking ) just like "technical people". Yes, they tend to be incredible gullible to certain things, over-simplistic and

Ironically, Google is the safer bet and this might have been a correct decision from Tim Apple. AI is changing at a rapid pace ( still ) and OpenAI is no longer the only game in town at the top, plus their finances are.. something we’ll hea

The delusion of the “Mac just works” crowd is only matched by the delusion of the Linux “year of the Desktop” crowd. They share the same trait of “it works on my machine, I like it, therefore it’s my identity and everything else is wrong” I

Even most toy databases "built in a weekend" can be very stable for years if: - No edge-case is thrown at them - No part of the system is stressed ( software modules, OS,firmware, hardware ) - No plug is pulled Crank the requests

I really never understood how people could store very important information in ES like it was a database. Even if they don't understand what ES is and what a "normal" database is, I'm sure some of those people run into i

Good decision for a change, now looking at execution track record and ability to stick with it.. yeah, that's where the bad news start. They have a tendency to go from trend to trend and always a "me too, I'm here" playe

Stoicism is like recommending having a couple drinks ( literally ) to a "normal" person with mild social anxiety with a need to go out in the World and live life. It works and it's good advice. Unfortunately it gets recommend

For all the insightful takes about everything under the Sun, Dan's cynicism and skewed view towards "Europe" are shown in this letter. It's not that all his takes are wrong, it's the exaggeration, the doom and gloom

While I’m not a fan of mobbing on someone as it easily escalates to bullying an gratuitous attacks, parodying his name is the least of my concerns. And he is a public figure. Being the head designer at Apple grants you that status and don’t

That might be true or not. But I’m sure you’re aware your post didn’t offer anything constructive and for that reason alone should be downvoted. Familiar is different from the same, therefore is new. And zig has many new concepts and things

Not every product is the same. You can't "manufacture" an egg like you do with a car. Entire egg "production" sites need to be shutdown and millions of chickens killed because of some strain of bird flu for example.
