I know why, but why do you guys make your subscription management such an awful experience for users? I used to like Adobe, now I hate the company and will go as far as suffering massive inconvenience to avoid Adobe products. Last time I ca

That's an argument for no insurance. And it isn't true. People put money in a bank because it is safe. They leave cash cash because it is safe.

Yeah. This makes me really happy I did not transition to some soft-skill based job. Soft skills are really important, but if all I had going for me right now is "management experience" I'd be more worried.

Sure, but these things come and go. I would not be surprised if in 12-24 months Amazon has more engineers than they do today by a significant margin. And "in tech" is right. At my current company, we have more PMs than we do devel

Yeah just seems like a different interface than GraphQL, but it's basically the same thing as GraphQL. So at this point, is it just "we don't like GraphQL" or something? I don't see the reason to have to homebrew th

Well, yes, but not really. With GraphQL you can have one user: - Request the users, their IDs, and emails, and their post ids Or: - Request the user, tons of profile information about them, and the posts with all the info about the posts Yo

Thanks for the links, but yeah - I would not give much credit to tweets and blog posts. Often this "emergent" behavior is not that. These are not experts.

At least so far, language models have zero capacity and zero indication of capacity they can come up with anything. Or even calculate things.

I know commercial products where the code is open source (and largely useless to anything except the product) and people contribute. Decent Espresso is one. It is insane anyone contributes but they do. Rich owner gets tons of free labor.
