I think we’ve been spoiled by move fast break things type of startups, and indeed if you’re in a competitive field you might have to fight for your survival. But truly successful projects are the ones that are worked on and improved for dec

Create self-contained frameworks and libraries by extracting code that starts becoming heavy and could be useful by its own. These are the useful abstractions. Constantly seek to specify, document, and simplify the protocols you implement.

I think technical debt comes from not cleaning up/refactoring once you’re done. Also, doing this work requires to have a good understanding of the codebase as well as its style/cohesion. I’m wondering if ML will get good enough to

IMO: write everything in Rust. If a dependency is not in Rust, rewrite in Rust. Carmack has a rant about Meta’s stack for the Quest being in different languages and being a pain. Having worked in heavily-split stacks I don’t want to run int

Does it matter if not everybody stops? What if some threshold of people stopped? Actually what is the current percentage of people tipping?

IDK, people who force you to spend money you don’t have to spend using shaming are the POS imo.

There’s a real problem of transparency and opacity of actual numbers when it comes to contribution to global warming, diseases, and other issues at scale. It’s a shame and it’s not clear how we can do better without some real technological

I want to hear a real argument against individual action, aka to stop tipping. I guarantee you that if we all stopped tipping today the system would change. There really needs to be a movement to reverse the shaming of customers and to figh
