Yeah none of that is going to happen here except by maybe 1 in 10 million people.

India is just screwed. It is in this insane democratic autocratic hybrid where you don't get much freedoms but every government has to have a short term focus to win the next election and thus igniting caste/religion/other in

I remember reading the book "The Powers That Be" by David Halberstam where he talks about how first the radio and later the Television made the US president much more powerful than the Congress. American democracy was much more lo

What checks and balances? The US Supreme Court has become highly partisan, where all justices vote along party lines of their appointing president mostly. US Congress is even less independent and has to kowtow to the leader or else get prim

The EU majorly screwed up by not focusing on a homegrown software ecosystem. The Chinese, due to either luck or competence or both, have a parallel big tech ecosystem compared to America and that is a huge advantage.

It is irrelevant whether it can or can not, since most SWEs are not building google but building yet another CRUD API.(and Google was not built by 100k developers but a much smaller but extremely talented small number of developers).

You are totally correct. Most of big tech has way too many SWEs (which if good for society definitely), but I don't see that number surviving LLMs.

Because products never become next level amazing. Hardware got so fast and yet most software keeps getting bloated. Given a choice between writing near perfect software and cramming more features, almost all companies cater to more features

HN is so weirdly optimistic that SWE jobs will not decline terribly in the age of LLMs. Yes claude code can not write a new web browser from scratch or even some innovative project, but almost nobody is doing that. Most of non big tech is w

That's a very uncharitable way to look at things. Brave obviously doesn't have enough resources to fork chromium (even the multi trillion dollar M$FT didn't have and had to fork Chromium), but they definitely provide the best

The problem is it is very hard to make changes and build innovative new products within big tech, at a pace to compete with smaller companies. Big tech succeeds despite it since the resource disparity is too much. Since the launch of ChatGP

Codex is terrible compared to claude code, even though the individual models of anthropic are not really that much better than openAI. They should have made that their top priority instead of a rewrite which will just make the improvements

Nobody is basing their AI predictions on Copilot though. That is the issue with all AI skeptics. Claude Code is absurdly good at editing a software project. Copilot like per month fixed cost tools have a lower ceiling since they are cost co

That is why I said "on long term and many people". Buddhists also over a long time period and in aggregate compared to other religions do seem non violent.

Such premises make sense in aggregate and compared to a baseline. They are not universal truths nor can they be.

Catholic Priests have been expected to be celibate so clearly expectations over human behaviour don't mean much on long term and many people.

After trying cline,aider,codex, and what not, I feel claude code is just so so better than all of them. e.g It takes much much fewer prompts to be able to do the same thing compared to cline. tbh I am not sure how cline will compete against
