   The printing press killed the work of scribes, people who copied books page by page. It was a form of art and craftsmanship. It didn't disappear completely, but 99% of production moved to the printing press. Programming will follow the

   I'm still on my M1 Pro. I bought one M5 for one of my employees and after 5 minutes playing around I am thinking in getting a new one.

   I don't know why some guy downvoted me. It's a great choice without expending 7K on some hardware than in less than two years will be replaced by the M7 (which is in the making).

   I will buy a Mac mini, 64GB RAM + 2TB. That will replace my current MBP M1 Pro with 16GB (4 years old). For serious upgrade I will wait the M7 Line.

   I don't think 16TB storage is a right choice. Going 2TB and it's 11,299. Probably, if you buy the storage and install it yourself you can go higher and quite cheaper.

   Mac Studio with M5 Max starts at $2,499 (U.S.) and $2,299 (U.S.) for education. Additional configure-to-order options are available at apple.com/mac-studio. Mac Studio with M5 Ultra starts at $5,499 (U.S.) and $5,099 (U.S.). I am in Eu

    I think a lot of people are missing what is genuinely positive about what DHH is doing here. Linux has never lacked great technology or brilliant engineers. What it has often lacked on the desktop is someone treating the whole experience as

    Exactly. You can have 3000 commits in a branch, and unless you don't push each of them one by one, shouldn't be a problem the number.

    It's almost double. If you have scaling prepared, it should be linear, but I doubt they've prepared for this.

    I can't believe they've been asleep all these months, not foreseeing that AI would generate more commits and Git usage and, consequently, not preparing themselves to scale.

    This is great news for everyone. We should celebrate they're really doing price competition.

    Try it. If you don't like the output, adapt the rules until you get the consistency you're looking for.

    I am writing excellent documentation with AI. The key success is to have rules to write documentation, PRs, commits, etc. I use ASD-STE100 and some constraints on what to write, how, and what it matters to my projects.

    The case of RN is different: it's made from a web point of view and applied to mobile. Therefore, it's not per se about the framework, but rather a coincidence that mobile and web are two completely different worlds. Hence, it&#x2

    I use Claude Code CLI, Codex Cli. Both are really good, they don't eat memory like the GUI apps.

    What's the benefit of working with this app, which eats insane amounts of memory, instead of Codex CLI?

    You're mixing UI components with platform APIs. React Native does use native platform-backed views. NFC and camera access are separate concerns. If an API isn't exposed, you can write the native Swift/Kotlin module and bridge

    I agree. RN has historically attracted a lot of web developers who treat mobile like a React website, and the result can be terrible. But I've seen exactly the same architectural problem in Flutter: huge widgets, mixed responsibilities

    I still prefer React Native with Expo over Flutter, mostly for practical reasons: * Language and hiring: TypeScript has a much larger developer pool. Dart is a solid language, but finding experienced Flutter engineers is harder. * Platform
