That's the thing, currently people focus on using AI for code but you can use AI to help you in the other steps as well. You can use it to discuss about what you should build, identify edge cases, ask you questions to force you to take

So you're saying AI doesn't help, and having reports is just like using AI (which you said doesn't help). What's stopping you from becoming an IC and producing as much as your full team then? What's the point of hav

In democracies money going to governments isn't sucked to some kind of vacuum. It's reinvested in infrastructure, social programs, investment programs, etc. The US would be better off if it had more money to invest in healthcare a

The real question is how much better are native apps compared to Electron apps. Yes that would take much disk space, but it takes 50Mb or 500Mb isn't noticeable for most users. Same goes for memory, there is a gain for sure but unless

Tesla had a good brand image in the early 2010, they could have positioned themselves like the quality/luxury brand for EV and have people buy Tesla for the brand itself like people do for Apple. Instead they let Elon made their brand

Even if it's not a PWA, on both iPhone and Android you can create an "app icon" that will open a URL in a chromeless window. It's as simple as tapping "Add to home" from your browser. So you get your "app&

It's not that the founders have smaller ambitions, it's that they can't find fundings to really grow the size of US tech companies. And when they do find fundings, it's in US so they move their company there.
