This type of vertical integration must have Amazon a little worried. For example, if Microsoft took a chapter from Apples (anticompetitive) playbook with Spotify, They could always make Azure Extensions N features ahead of equivalent AWS Ex

Keep in mind that the average replier here is an older developer whos skillset has come from the 2008-2018 generation (Rails, Django) and have rarely ventured elsewhere. Or when they have they blame the learning curve on the tool not themse

In my brain, Microsoft is two companies at once. Old Microsoft and New Microsoft. The split is categorized by Satya's focus and specifically MS's acquisitions after he took over. This new Microsoft does very well (Azure, Github, L

The dogma of the anti crypto crowd here is painful. It used to be easy to take the comments here at face value as you could assume it was posted by someone rational and objective. Now I'm not so sure. This is coming from someone who is

It let me purchase and sell a small software app without going to the bank, signing documents, paying $75 just to orchestrate a wire transfer.

HN unfortunately isn't very objective on this particular subject.

I don't know if I'd even be that nice. It's been firmly in the drain for over a decade.

Ah shoot, well then I'm sorry, that is unfair criticism on my part. The pitch was just so direct, coupled with the perfect topic of "Want to build a SaaS? Use Elixir" I would have assumed you owned the paid boilerplate you di

Disclaimer: Elixir is extremely productive, Phoenix is outstanding, the community is world-class, and as a result of the Erlang VM / OTP / Beam you can remove whole parts of your traditional webstack. If you haven't tried it

Fair enough rule, edited out the accusation. FWIW Im a happy Apple user as well. Just perplexed at how fast any (even well balanced) critique on Apple is so quickly down voted here at HN. Maybe more people prefer brand over reality than I t

This is laughably over blown. I don’t expect my doctor to know the component parts of atoms. Nor do I need them to. I don’t expect a designer to know how a pixel works. At some point in the stack we have to draw a line and say this level of

If it does, the pre-requisite will be to have an existing valuable (and private) data set you can plug into you GPT. (Otherwise your moat is just a text prompt) Meaning unlike the iOS app store, the millions to be made will be an opportunit

You would hope they have good security practises + purchase insurance. But I have a feeling like it will take an incident like the one you describe to happen first before that becomes mandatory.

Personally, having worked remotely since 2014, I feel quite secure in the fact the remote work is here long term. The economics of it make sense on both sides (Office costs, salary costs, commutes, hiring pool access) And the organization i

I know everyone is right to be cautious. And I'm sure some commenters are preparing to be dismissive or dare I say it, smug. But in the absence of being correct or incorrect, lets just take the time to collectively enjoy dreaming of a

Simple is a changing target. In a one person team merging your server with your client and using HTMX can be simpler (depending on if the value is in your UX or in your logic/data). However as the team gets larger then I find having a

If this is a step on the road to wasm being the primary target for packaging applications (without a docker image + x86 emulator intermediary)... Then I am all for it.

Fair rule, but I think in context here, it's a valid point. If HN wants to show some data on comment quality overtime that refutes it I'd been keen to eat my words.
