karpathy's Zero to Hero series ( https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAqhIrjkxbuWI23v9cThs... ) has been the best time investment I have made, not only for learning about AI, but maybe ever. Prerequisites: Python, and

I'm not understanding why this isn't being taken more seriously. The author hints a bit at the implications: More importantly, the waluigi may be harmful to the humans inhabiting our universe, either intentionally or unintenti

I think you are correct. A couple things probably at play: 1) Region (for example, my data point is from Boston) 2) Framework language choice ( https://insights.stackoverflow.com/survey/2021 ) 3) Ecosystem (i.e. Microsof

As a relatively new engineer (~2 years FAANG experience), there seems to be a connotation around .NET. Perhaps this is indicative of the larger Microsoft ecosystem, but it feels like my peers at university and in the industry tend to stay f

This is a really strong argument. At the end of the day I think it is possible (with iteration) to get the level of abstraction correct for something approaching some semblance of the universality you refer to. I really just want a framewor

am an ex-AWS engineer who worked on a service team that depends on SWF and also on one that depends on Step Functions. IMO the serverless-ness (?) of Step Functions and not having to manage pollers like SWF is huge.

I think your criticism of my criticism is fair. Perhaps this is somewhere you simply cannot provide a clean abstraction and need to be opinionated.

Current company's infrastructure is currently all on AWS, so using Step Functions. However I really _really_ like temporal.io's code-first solution (just didn't want to self-host). Perhaps the dust on best practices / te

The reason I love Next.js + Vercel though is because I don't need anything else for the frontend (besides a CMS maybe). If I have to use: 1) Pusher for realtime 2) Supabase for DB 3) Temporal for workflows 4) Vercel / Netlify, etc

This certainly is akin to what I had in mind, and looks really great. A couple of thoughts: 1) Ideally the framework is polyglot (Go seems sensible though) 2) I wish they had queues/events that were wired up to functions 3) Not sure if

Definitely get that it works as a backend as well. I guess I am imagining a frontend-agnostic platform that is more backend-centric, rather than targeted directly for frontend web development. Ideally I just get an endpoint from my backend-

If Next.js + Vercel is the leader of the production-ready frontend-as-a-service space, why hasn't a similar leader emerged in the backend-as-a-service space? I would love a clean Vercel-like abstraction on top of standard cloud primiti
