just to add to your excellent observation by writing code by hand - you're the author & editor at the same time. if you're skilled enough - you quickly get to the desired state vs the llm which while might produce a lot of cod

people like George Noble while smart and arguing for common sense unfortunately lose when hysteria and foolishness i.e memes take over. Tesla is a meme stock. SpaceX will sell dreams about datacenters in space. as long as gullible foolish p

a lot of market forces that incentivize the wrong behavior. your company raised a bunch of money during the ZIRP era, your company needs to hire a large amount of H1Bs, you're a founder of 3-5 person startup that's been default de

this is great example of framing. my take I use ruby a lot too - DHH might be disagreeable - but the one thing is one bright light i.e Rails ends up dimming the others. so when it cracks - like it did - people go to the next room, even thou
