You said america worked hard to get rid of manual factory jobs and then you gave the example of China as a state that followed their neoliberal example. But China is the Earths factory and they have hundreds of millions doing manual factory

Because we all know there is no amount of factory manual labour going on in China. Did you even think for a second before writting this?

I wonder why the downvotes. I assume people believe this comment is overly sarcastic... but is it? The absurdity of what the administration is doing automatically makes this comment a legitimate one, and not a troll.

He means that he prefers for that poor lad to have died trying to save a piece of metal. Simple stuff, there is no going around it. For some people money is above human life.

Very narrow take, it so far fetched i would consider this a bad faith comment. How could you possibly consider intensive games to be "simply" web apps? How about network apps like vpns, wifi analyzers? Have you really not come acr

I don't think you are tackling (what i believe to be) the main point in this article. Yes we can all agree that replacing SO with chatgpt is very fast and often a better experience. However, this is not about researching for solutions,

If you MUST use a framework, then yes i would go with ember because they have a prooved commitment to following the web standards rather than creating their own custom standards that they throw away the next year. Having said that, 30 years

This is exactly why I am a huge fan of ember.js Unfortunatelly it fell behind in popularity mostly due to some unimportant reasons (eg not being able to render 1M rows faster than react) and some important ones (load times), but boy did the

I get what you say but I must insist. Abstractions don't properly surface the underlying causes when they break. This creates a barier in gaining experience on the topic that matters in order to solve your problem. Let me try to give a

My guess is that AI will make programming even more misserable for those who entered the field for the wrong reasons. Now is the time to double down on learning the basics, the low level, the under-the-hood stuff.

I agree with your intent to introduce the angle of leadership and in particular the CEOs since it is well established that people can't properly evolve and thrive under a leadership that is rotten. Having said that, there is also somet

Not arguing with what you said (not agreeing either) but i want to add a perspective. Not all human discussion can happen in forum-like format. Quick disposable chats are also usefull for when you're in a state of "figuring things

The funniest thing about all this is the absurd joke that Trump is compromised by Russia. A clearly populist and baseless propaganda to wash off the cold self-interested policies that America always (obviously) shoved down the throats of it

I think we need to critically re-evaluate what is it exactly we are doing on the internet, how we do it, and examine existing assumptions. For instance, do we really need all services to be centralised? Do we really need services to be &quo
