(This man hasn't seen a hyperbolic exaggeration before) It's alright, I forgive you :D In truth though, the repo is approaching 100k stars and bun has over 7 million monthly downloads. My point still stands.

I hate to say this, but this reeks of "We're owned by Anthropic now and we were put to task to prove Claude Opus as the ultimate AI model, so we were forced to do a full port of something millions of developers rely on to Rust in

Simple answer: it's easily reviewable by a human, which will always be an important step in the process of building software, no matter how many hype conferences tell you to stop checking AI output irresponsibly.

Specifically the line/page keys. I guess I've gotten used to MacBooks for so many years that I'm fine with pressing a modifier key and the arrow keys to navigate that way. I'd rather do that than accidentally keep pressi

That keyboard layout is a deal breaker for me. Why do companies have to change things up all the time? Why can't they just go with T-shaped arrow keys and a standard layout? It completely dwarfs the otherwise great hardware.

Judging by Anthropic's track record for sloppy, buggy software, I can't see this taking off quite as well as people might think, when compared to Figma and its captive customer base. Figma actually put the work in to make a great

I agree somewhat, there's a common language for building products that most people understand and expect. Innovation comes from the ways people differentiate, without straying too far from the tried-and-true patterns. It's the tin

I'm not sure they don't care anymore, as much as they experienced the same pressure every company faced when AI went mainstream. Had they not included support for it, where would they be now? I'd wager a critical mass would b

Hard disagree. There's more to UX than pushing pixels around. Usability, accessibility, and capturing the broader customer experience at 40,000 ft isn't a trivial process when you're designing a large product (or suite of pro

Exactly, it has the potential to make you lose something important, forcing you to dig through browser history to find it again. If it happens to be a long-lived tab, you might be searching for a while if you forgot the name or site you wer

Oh definitely, I'm no stranger to Apple's antics... but usually they're pretty particular about hardware decisions serving a functional purpose, and not just a way to protect their bottom line. They aren't exactly strugg

I don't even understand the functional purpose of the rivets if the keyboard is already held in place with a million screws and the key slots cut into the aluminum frame. It makes no sense, seems like a waste.

Think of it this way: they're paying you lots of money to build something boring that has a lot of prior art/research available to you for free. This could be the easiest money maker in your life. It's not your problem they&#

Pretty ironic, isn't it? You'd think they'd have enough faith in Teams to compete with Discord on this front. The friction comes from having to sign up for different forums or services. I'd wager fewer people use (or eve

For the same reason any company or open-source project uses Discord: it's a quick way to gather feedback and study how people use your products, without forcing users to sign up for something new if they already use Discord with a wide

There are some odd cases like that, but you can always "Ignore" a game and it'll never show up again. That also feeds into Steams curation for you based on your interests.

I'm already dreading it. Steam was already full of junk being released by the dozens every single day. It's hard to think it could be worse.
