While I agree there’s a lack of attention for the impact of software engineers on near-term industry growth — rather the opposite with layoffs and agentic automation (attempts) et cetera; the mentioned Scott Gray is working at OpenAI now, s

Reads as RIP Metaverse to me. Any time a CEO publishes such empty, wordy essays, it's probably earnings reporting time. I can't shake the feeling it's a public subreply at one of or a cluster of doubting investors, who starte

Hooks turn out to be a leaky and contagious abstraction.

Thanks for sharing. I always viewed DP as finding partials to cache. Something not done a lot in day to day algos. Did not appreciate the name as being related to execution order optimization.

The way looking up words in your vocabulary works kind of like a vector db search. Then sometimes I think of something and the query result returns only the thing in language 3.

If you're into handheld console emulation then definitely check out https://gbadev.org as well. I remember their forums were epically filled with reverse engineering knowledge.

Thanks Sebastiaan for exploring this, great demonstration and insights. Can’t wait to see what the actual redesign is going to look like.

TTFB optimization to the extreme? Cheaper to transfer than downloading an entire font first.

Feeling valued is the key here. If you need external validation then by all means, work smarter towards it. Become a manager. Become a company influencer. Build a brand, and sell it hard. At some point later in life, I hope you’ll figure ou

Can someone explain why they didn’t go with (anonymous) class destructors? Or something other than a Symbol as special object key. Especially when there are two Symbols (different one for asynchronous) which makes it a leaky abstraction, no

The so-called Founder mode is basically necessary when a CEO shows signs they're unable to effectively manage their suite of chiefs and directors to steer the company stably into better times. The founder (often CEO themselves) feels i

As an engineer I have nothing against OKRs. But it's often the day-to-day management (EM or PM) who tend to override the team's OKRs for upper management to prioritize something ad-hoc & out of scope they agreeably said Yes to

Is this still a discussion in 2023? I remember writing phpdoc @type hints in 2013, as that was the de facto way to have intelligent autocompletion in editors back then.

I truly hope this encourages manufacturers to build smaller, lighter, and slower cars.

Congrats on launching! Beautiful landing page and the use of wasm is really clever. Curious. What’s on the Roadmap? I use Dropbox for my paid file storage and sharing, which part does Shuttle do better?

We used Redis with persistence to build our first prototype. It performed amazingly and development speed was awesome. We were a full year beyond break-even before adding MySQL to the stack for the few times we missed the ability to run SQL

Well, if the company is providing input data, it could be interesting to generate something with it. Like a customer profile pic based on their user data and past orders!

I don’t have advice for you, as I am just as bad at kissing ass. Maybe try to elevate your perceived image/worth by liking what he likes outside of work: trying out a <sport> that he plays. Watching a <movie> that he likes.

As for the Mandarin tones, the model might have mixed it up with the tones from a dialect like Cantonese. It’s interesting to discover how much difference a more specific prompt could make.

I find that flow state is sometimes mind numbing. Taking a shower gives me more creative ideas. But visualizing any system or only a partial system on paper, makes a huge difference. Added bonus, pen and paper cannot be interrupted. Need to
