One thing that's missing from this - your metric of success will change, and you'll have to navigate that. As an IC you have a tangible representation of what you accomplished that day - the doohickey now spins, the bloop now boop

To wargame the a rebuttal to this, the red tape might be circumvented just because there aren't rules to govern robotic work. You can fully agree to only use union labor, to only have humans working 8 hour days, or to only use certain

It does limit things. I will say though, from a psychological standpoint, it does do a good job of making me value FSD more! I'm always surprised how much I miss having FSD when I have to drive myself now. Very much a, "ugh I have

I'm surprised they're leveraging a png for it instead of webp or some other compression format. Mainly surprised that compression of blog assets isn't automated for them.

Shopify's tooling is top notch. They're one of my go-to examples of a really well engineered design system and usable docs. Highly recommend using them for inspiration (and obv for integration if you need a shop front).
