To which the counter argument I guess would be.. there’s no sense in trying to solve for some abstract future set of problems that the vast majority of people are never going to have ahead of time on the off chance you’re one of them. That

No I get all that, but to the parent comments point however, there’s no way in hell I would ever pretend for a moment that one is as straightforward as the other and it’s no longer a choice between Rust and C++ both of which add a lot of co

But that’s no longer the choice you need to make. Ubuntu themselves have said for a couple of years now that every new GUI app they make natively for Linux is going to be Flutter and dedicated a bunch of engineers to the project to make sur

Just putting a note here to say I told you so when there is inevitably a leak that’s able to tie individual people back to the horny shit they posted to OpenAI when this launches. This is going to become a blackmail target 100%.

Yea just to be clear none of that ever happened in real life. I think maybe you might be mixing up some things here which is that there was once many years ago a version of Angular which was written in Dart which exists internally and pow

I’m not trying to be rude in any way here but literally everything you have posted here is incorrect. I don’t know where you’re getting your information from. The only exception is about job postings and react, I’m not making the argument i

Isn’t WebTransport more or less TCP (reimagined I guess but it’s key functionality and set of capabilities) running on UDP while also able to play well with the web’s security model.

After doing this for so many years now and one thing I’ve really come to see as a fairly fundamental truth at this point is that the more you can align with the underlying platform you’re working with generally the better. And so in that se

They might not have the conflict of interest but they also don’t have the business interest either. Meta is a spyware company who makes all of their money from collecting personal data to sell to advertisers. They have zero incentive to ded

I’ve been doing web development since 1997 so I feel like I can have a few opinions at this point. Reacts insistence at the time on everyone should use hooks was hands down one of the dumbest things I’ve seen in all my time. Not only was it

It’s time to start moving away from React in general. I cannot for the life of me understand why anyone would intentionally pick it in 2025 unless there were serious constraints that forced them to.

I think there’s an extremely high likelihood that we just DON’T see huge advancements at least in terms of accuracy or capabilities which are probably the two major nuts to crack to bring it to a different level. I’m open to the possibility

And they have no intention of doing so they are actively on the side of the flaggers but you’ll be called a conspiracy theorist if you suggest that despite months and months of evidence.

A hell of a lot of absolute slop as well… it’s really not at all obvious that it’s a net win in any way at this stage. Actual real life case studies that people can point to where they deployed it and it all went great are actually very har

I think the problem is bigger than that too. If you have a problem set where you cannot afford any kind of mistakes LLMs are never going to be the right tool, they are never going to get to that stage. If you have a problem set where some m

This absolutely does however happen in practice. It’s a bit ironic in the sense that the EXACT logic of what you’re saying here is precisely what makes it such an ideal thing to target. I think sometimes people put way too much faith into t
