Anyone who cares about the "craft" and "quality" of frontend or any other domain of programming should LOVE all the LLMs because it actually enables high code quality at very low cost. You can enforce best practices, do

Imagine only 10% of the white collar labor force were allowed to use AI. In that case, those 10% would be given 2 or 3 days off a week. Easy. Now imagine if only 10% of companies were allowed to use AI. Those companies would easily be willi

Even if you get rid of "obvious spam and SEO", it won't change the fact that nobody wants to even read the "good" results. They just want the answer. You can use AI to solve yesterday's problem or you can use A

Dumbest idea i've ever seen. Complete misunderstanding of how the tech world works. The idea is: if sufficient consumers banded together and coordinated their spending power, they can drive decisions in the executive suite of the compa

This is such a basic take that totally misses the bigger picture of why Google made this move. Google was forced to do this and it's a miracle of their slow organizational gears that they took so long to do it. So many people have alre

1 year ago i would have agreed with you. Today, I'm going to take the other side on this. The amount of malicious code embedded in software now is going up exponentially. Yes this is a painful tax imposed on all software, malicious or

The analysis here is excellent. However, Groq's success was not obvious or straight forward. It require huge amounts of investment to keep it alive for many years long before any real positive cashflow. It was on its death bed for year

Hey there. Most of the advice here focuses on Claude Code. Since your use case revolves around a very specific frameworks and refactoring workflow, my advice is to use AI tooling that will allow you to experiment with other models. Opus 4.5

Quality comes at a cost. That cost has gone down for some types of products (iPhones, TVs) but gone up for other types of products (housing). Clothing cost after accounting for inflation has actually not increased. There are many of high qu

Lots of devs complaining about code quality and understandability here. I'm going to skip the obvious answer about how LLMs can actually improve code quality and reviewability and focus on a different argument: why engineers even care

I don't think you can calculate the cost of serverless compute this way. What containers do you have that run "non-stop"? If the container doesn't run any workloads, it doesn't cost you anything. Most of the compute

Americans do not understand how much press there is outside the US about tourists from Ireland / Germany / Canada getting locked up in ICE jails for weeks on end. It's one thing to refuse entry to someone who doesn't hav

The answer here can be found if you just "follow the money" and realize that while some investments follow international boundaries, other types of investments are highly mobile. The lack of UK hardware startups is due to the lack

I have never ever heard of software engineers going on strike until now. I guess software engineers are going the way of commoditized factory workers. Everything on this site looks like it could have been built by AI in like 20 minutes.

This is typical VC masterbation. 1. This list is tiny. They have pass on 10000 more companies than the ones on this list. Most of that passing was done correctly 2. VCs rightly over-index on the big winners. The Facebooks and Airbnbs of the

Hang in there, everyone. This is what happens when interest rates are high, LPs prefer to plow money into fixed income or public markets and VCs with what little funds they have prefer to be in AI. 2011-2022 was an unusual golden age for so

Using SMS makes PERFECT SENSE for the online service provider. The following are very similar but separate goals: 1. proof of account ownership (person attempting action has ownership of account) 2. limiting accounts created by non-legitima

I think it's more nuanced than this. The left believes in immigration based on the amount of hardship / suffering endured by the immigrant. The more the suffering, the more deserving they are of being let in. The right believes in

You're right actually. Have you seen how many Australian coffee shops there are in New York? Crikey! Changing America one cup of flat white at a time. Tough work.

Really? 1. Is that why they give special virtually uncapped visa classes to Australia, Singapore, Canada and Chile while everyone else has to deal with h1B? 2. Do you think there are country based limits when admitting people through the so
