Smaller companies necessarily have a small team stretched across broad responsibilities, that usually describes startups. If it's scaling up then yeah, that changes. You want to join small teams for broad experience, startup or regular

There are broad applications for drones, not just hobbyists. In fact I think hobbyists are probably the minorty of buyers these days.

Interesting. One of the reasons an LSP is so useful is that it does not fabricate anything. If my LSP can't tell me something, it means it doesn't exist or I haven't defined it. In some ways it helps against code being too ma

It's a corporate feel that comes from a professional setting and lots of risk aversion. That is exactly what LLMs tend to write, so I sometimes catch myself feeling the "LLM ick" but the article was from before the boom. So I

It's a great format for POV remote control in a more relaxed setting (eg, not flying a drone at 200kmph).

Can we attribute the acceleration to something specific, that might not actually continue growth? For example, agentic coding and reasoning models seem to have made a huge leap in abilities, but wouldn't translate to an ongoing exponen

I think you might be misunderstanding the article actually, this is about AI solving tasks as measured by how long it takes a human to solve the task. The AI could potentially solve it much quicker, but the use of "human time to solve&

I don't think it's quite that simple. A great deal of work has nothing to do with computers, and even more human activity has nothing to do with economic advantage. The scope of your statement is a bit too broad in that regard but

There is a clear substance behind the pushback on AI in creative work, and it would be foolish to dismiss it as irrational. You might be missing the forest for the trees if you focus too much in implementation details, the dislike for is AI

I think the OP knows best what happened to them, so I will leave it up to them to decide. But to get targeted for a product you just looked feels like pretty standard retargetting. I don't disagree with your point that demographics can

I still agree more or less that the best way for a junior to succeed is to jump in the deep end, not without guidance though. Mentorship is really important in distributed systems where the inner machinations can be quite obtuse. But I find

How would you solve the homonym problem without a kanji like character set? I am sure it's possible but that would be a big challenge. (For the reader, Japanese has a lot of homonyms since it has a comparatively limited set of phonemes

I have always felt furigana bridges that gap well enough in written learning. The downside is that it might become a crutch, but it can't for long if you are serious about learning reading. Native materials pretty quickly drop furigana
