Haha 100 percent agree! If anything video content is becoming more pseudo intellectual and clickbait everyday in my opinion. My video consumption is way lower than it used to be. To a certain extent these video platforms create big personal

I wonder why that is since they are both basically using gpt3 as base.

True at scale it makes perfect sense to do that. Its just not a very lean (2 different codebases for 2 platforms) and maintainable solution (apple and google keep changing how they do things and kick out apps that dont follow suit)

Yeah okay cherry-picking an example wasnt the best idea i admit. But still the disagreement we have is between a senior engineer striving for business value vs a senior engineer striving for engineering value. I have been on both sides of t

I think its a cool theory and seems the most reasonable from all the other theories of aging. However I am a bit disappointed when I only see David's name on every paper published on this topic. Why dont other institutions start simila

Haha I am as technical as it gets (Have a masters degree in engineering from a decent school, even have written my own compiler and database system) and this is the senior engineer I want to be and have in my team. The engineers you are des

I feel like we are not in alignment on what a senior engineer should do so lets first agree on that. The primary responsibility of a senior engineer is to move the business objectives forward. Code quality can be a business objective but th

Honestly there is no good way of dealing with this kind of behaviour that is politically correct in my experience. You just have to reprimand them and tell them to spend developer time on creating business value rather than pursuing their p

Yeah one thing I have learnt in my adventures is that you should never try to do business in a non advanced economy. I keep all my business in the Netherlands no matter where I live.

The reason this works for tokens is that tokens are put in a vector space where similar words are in a similar place. The same effect could not be achieved with characters or bits. If you think about it our brains also remember words and no

Honestly I havent tried much sharing with web but I can at least vouch for sharing between iOS and Android which seems to work mostly. In a few years time I think it will become much more easy and bulletproof than it is now. Making two diff

As a former iOS UIKit dev I actually prefer react native to SwiftUI. If we have to do this declaratively (and I have to re-learn how to do complex layouts) lets also make it platform independent and reusable with Web. It feels like SwiftUI

Happy new year everyone! I am gonna build a lot this year and will make my app stockselect.ai popular! Wish me luck

Exactly! For me this guy is at a higher level of respect than anyone working for a salary!

Hmm I think in some cases its actually a more empathetic advice to just get over it as a non-issue and think about other things.

Crypto is a technology just like Microsoft Windows is. As more people use it its value increases. Only difference is now there is no bill gates and the rewards are shared by all early adopters.

Assuming the stablecoin doesnt lose its peg (choose a decentralized one), you can get 20 percent yield from staking it.

Right answer. (There are some other new interesting protocols on the horizon too MARS, PRISM)

I said stablecoin for a reason.

What do people do with their money when central banks only offers 0.03 percent interest while inflation is 9 percent. They can convert their money to a crypto stablecoin and get upto 20 percent yield.

Its more of a question of status. If youre one month away of being sent back to India how can you feel good about yourself.

Okay so I did the same thing in 2012 after being frustrated working with the H1B system for 2 years. In 2013 however I moved to the netherlands for a job and in 2020 I became a dutch national (Actually spent the whole of 2019 in colombia).

Couldnt agree more with your core argument. Declarative rendering is way more mental overhead than procedural rendering. Designing a system is more about the "how" than the "what".

Yeah one of the reasons I refuse to do SwiftUI is I want to do my layout in constraints. Its also how my head thinks when I think about layouts, and also probably why I never enjoyed web dev and got into it.

I agree with you. I get the problem its trying to solve but its removing the ability to parse that line of code without carefully reading it. SQL is able to have this because we are talking about querying a database, but a modern language s
