On YC company was offering an unpaid gig. (Although I imaging being open source that person would retain copyright?) Yeah lots of startups YC or otherwise are playing global arbitrage. And now AI arbitrage. It is a race to own means of prod

No. I wasn't concerned about security but just churn. They keep changing things. They also don't fix stuff people care about alot. I'd just use Koa and keep it simple.

Middleware skipping could expose all kinds of problems. A lot is done in middleware that the rest of the code can lay back and assume is dealt with.

Trying to get my head around this. It must mean 90% of what they were doing was writing code. Like not even thinking, architecture, gathering requirements, make sure you built the right thing etc. Just generating syntax.

"Bad" is doing s lot of work in your sentence. Do you mean slow? Or buggy? Or unmaintainable? Or unextendable? Uses patterns the tech lead hates? Hard to read? High cyclomatic complexity? Doesn't meet requirements? Security i

Open mind here. Spill more details please. We're the 9 good or was their dead weight. Could the 9 to 2 have been done without AI anyway (because less work to do).

This is what is really interesting. What will they do in 10 years. Will you need to learn mathematics to Phd level to produce code that an LLM cannot produce. Will we all become business analysts (Will AI do that too?). I don't think B

That one is almost a meme on Linked In. For fun I hope it is a long troll (like a long con but for trolling) And most of linked in (as the algo show me!) is basically this HN post in 100 words or the polar opposite saying how software engin

Been thinking about this idea too. The concept of data residency seems like a farce when eu-central is owned by AWS who answers to the US government. An inverted solution has say a German person using a server of their choice (we get charge

Ah yes. That is brilliant until it isn't. For any reasonably complex business problem you will run into: * Performance issues: table scans, high memory usage for joins, crazy sql execution plans, lock contention * Security problems: es

It is real. It is interesting, because I don't think US wars or international interference over the years have caused this effect but now people are avoiding the US for pure "look out for number 1" reasons. I.e. it isn't

Well you have no rights when you expose a server to the internet. Other than copyright of course.

Talking of "Jon" and "Skeet", there is a fairly well known programmer called Jon Skeet. If you are a C# developer good chance he has answered you stack overflow question!

I have rescued 2 stray (lost really) animals. A dog I took to the vet. And a bird I was about to take to the vet. Heard the person down the street calling for them. But yeah. Vets! Microchips! Unless you are scared of the animal then fair e

Does rank and file "work" for regular employees who don't have company shares? I.e. does it help people facilitate a union? You say unions are dead but this feels closest to a union (union platform) anyway. If the employees o

Energy and health are personal. Age correlation with health is just statisical. I had a 75 year old come and drive miles and fix my air conditioning. Fit as a fiddle.

Do people who get together at 18 wait until 35 to have kids? I bet it is rare unless they are on some other mission in life.

Kids younger. You miss out on parties and travel but then your brain will get likely rewired to not care/regret that when you are older. Plus then at 40 you can start your startup. One tip is to make the 20 years of work lead to the un

Lol coincidently had some publoc traded shares force sold last month. Didn't realize (they didn't send me an email). I have a weird ability to pick these kinda stocks! Unfortunately it hasn't been a profitable strategy.
