It nicely shows HN bias when comment like this is downvoted into oblivion. "JS framework churn" is a thing of the past , with only a few I-hate-JS types trying to keep it alive. and I'm not sure it even applied to people ac

That sounds like US-centric PoV. For large portion of (most?) Europeans self-driving won't change much in their lives, definitely not anything major.

Those traits seem to me like a thing most people desperately need ... Everyone being confident in their assessment of everything seems like one of major problems of today's population.

That was not 2s but 4s and you could predict that happening even before that. Does not seem like especially dangerous situation when you approach autopilot as GP does.

Seems more like appeal to authority rather than an argument.

Actually you perfectly illustrated why it's in fact great analogy - nobody listens to other side's argument, everyone is "obviously right". Or other side's arguments "obviously flawed".

Frankly you have no idea about wages in the world outside of your country. $15/h is ok for dev in my country, maybe not the most experienced one but still ok. And WE are offshoring a lot of the programming jobs to countries with much w

He is arguing that it is not clear that "buying cow is obviously better". Because many people really do argue like that when it comes to rent vs. buy.

Well "capitalist market" can still be "unfair", due to information assymetry. Or can you perfectly decide which product is best "as-is"? Not saying regulation is best answer here, just that the issue is more co

by _Tev 9y ago
From what i have seen UI / IO / glue code does not need that much performance. Therefore 80-90% of JS code you write does not need that much performance. So WASM will be great for specialized libraries, but for most stuff it will

VSCode is the most used editor (see SO survey), so I guess department making it qualifies as "user-friendly". You can't really make sweeping statements about large orgs.
