There is this meme of a bell curve where the left side is some newbie trying to do something obvious, the right side is a "pro" trying to do the same obvious thing, and the middle is a someone trying to do cool/new/trend

People keep giving examples like printed press, or whatever, but honestly the printed press did kill writing/drawing by hand. When was the last time you bought a hand written book or a hand painted picture? Sure, they still exist, but

If i were 17, I'd try to distinguish who to take advice from, and would definitely learn that VCs have interest to spread a specific agenda in their message. Also, I would get drunk and have as much fun as could, as the misery of worki

Yeah, it's not like fully agree with the guy or the fact that he posted it, but it is kind of stupid to call this piece of writing "shameful" while trying to defend someone who bring andrew tate as a positive example to conve

Oh wow. Wasn’t aware about DHHs opinions. Not thank I cared too much, but it kind of shows you why you should never look up to these people.

Oh, so it's not only "JavaScript bad and npm bad". Apparently, if your language uses third party dependency registry, you are prone to malicious code, regardless if it's Javascript or not. Use containers for development.

Either my brain is cooked or this is AI generated/assisted text. The problem is I can no longer tell the difference between AI and non-AI writing. Maybe my brain got bad, maybe everyone now writes like AI writes. I no longer know.

Isn’t that the point of a hobby? To enjoy the path and not the result? To learn something new. I understand using LLMs as tools to help you with your hobby, but I think when “Claude spends hours debugging it” it probably is no longer a hobb

"OS for work" - like, what does it mean? OS is operating system, it runs on a hardware and provides you to operate the system. I hate when companies destroy the English language with vibe invented terms.

This is incredible. Seems like a big achievement. The only thing that bothers me is what happens when robots finally automated "all the mundane day-to-day tasks" including our jobs, what is there left to do for common folks who ar

I’m sorry, what does it mean?

I’m sorry. I tried to understand what is this about, but I couldn’t. The title didn’t explain it. The description neither. I remember I heard a saying somewhere that if you can explain what you are doing in a few simple sentences, then is i

Thank you for saying this. Every time I see a substack article I simply do not open it, because if I do, especially on mobile, 90% of the screen will be covered for popups banners and what not

That's the problem - nothing. I was loving the profession so much that I did it during working hours, and then working on my stuff in the evenings and weekends.

My typing got worse, my ability to read got worse, my ability to understand code I read got worse, my ability to think got worse, my ability to concentrate worse. On the bright side, I can watch YouTube while fable is writing, mostly, worki

Kind of ironic that an article that criticizes Google turning into an ad machine opens up with a “we have noticed you have an ad blocker installed” whole page pop-up

OMG leave the emojis alone! It's the classic example of a product that reached it's final form. Stop "innovating" the damn emojis
