You have to add a lot of scaffolding to postgres to make it semi-immutable. datomic just is, wanna know previous user email, just go back and see. Out of the box, without thinking about it.

Why would they be unprofitable? They have a range of steps before that. Heck there are github repos that let you use youtube as free(terabytes) storage, by encoding data as noisy video. I think first step before "bankrupcy" would

Well, yeah but your definition is also kinda recursive "mature" sector is a regulated sector. Well restaurant schtick to me is way more mature if we stick to original vibe. The thing is most regulation is happening where people ac

Show me example of a thing that would prove it. EU has tons of regulation on cars(most of manufacturers are EU based) - ask any car manufacturer how easy it is to get a car sold in EU(not saying that tons of regulation is good or that diffi

I have been on this rollercoaster of reading with ya. I'm mid 30s, 10+ yoe. When you start swe you can live under illusion your job is coding, its really not. You are building tech behind a business, depending on the business that rang

depending on the max tokens, I think you can pretty easily fine-tune a model to return answers with actions required then wrap your prompt app to react to those, paste answers and "reask/reprompt" the same question... similar

Yeah and owner would have to have SWE on payroll to continue having it working. It's why people migrated to a more general, albeit sometimes also more confusing apps/platforms.

Right now? It made a splash but who uses ai for building their software this very moment? Nobody knows how the industry will land on this. Adoption will take time - it's not gonna be a year. I remember after ruby on rails first demo, n

Even in the gaming industry. Typically you have people developing an engine, common frameworks... tools that downstream work to lower branches - now I can just type to chatgpt rather than go through requesting/reviewing, see quicker wh

Yes, this is also why senior engs get payed so well. Actually if you are junior dev you basically cost money, imo. However a lot of companies hire those in hopes they will make their career and stay longer - especially startups do that, as

We didn't have good notion of global social network at the time - facebook was first, kinda, so they took it all. Facebook still gonna prevail, but over time it festered a lot of specialized competition from twitter, reddit, linkedin,

They did that to me themselves. They have festered the "hiring industrial complex" to outcompete for talent. Now this whole thing has to stay alive. They have to fire. Maybe the news about it will be enough, cause we also plan on

In my estimation he is not. I "remember" office for good and bad, for most of the time even when I communicated with folks next door/nearby i would still fallback to chat. Water cooler talks is what I miss actually, but if yo

Very rarely being first counts imo. If you are building something novel in parallel there is a good chance you will have enough of difference. Examples: other search engines, social networks, 3d games still exist. For many folks a different

Yes, I run small customer oriented project, having meetings with people who spend couple of bucks is kinda ridiculous(to both, I think only super chatty people who like to was time would come), but I noticed discord is super powerful - peop

Every org has slow-as-molasses, badly designed, illogical components. It is about ratio. Time will tell. I don't think Musk/twitter's case will set any precedent. He is too much of a character to provide broad meaningful insi

To a degree. Interop is useful, but you can getby with most of things without it. Long term you will learn interop as it's often times easier to write small piece of code to take java lib, rather than trusting in community wrappers.

Roof over your head. Seriously? In Europe if keep it modest you can keep a roof over your head by working in supermarket. I don't think this should be your aim honestly.

I would not say that clojure/haskell/elixir can be picked up in 1-3 months in most environments. I do agree that you should highlight broader engineering experience and keep langs/techs as merely a proof of some competence in

People in US seem so freaked about it. I don't think many people in EU would care that you have a gap. Great you will join in as fresh. Further I think you can just write "working on personal endeavors"... which you will. Ma

If you develop serious conditions during 30s, you're going to enjoy them longer. I think the aim overall should be balanced life oriented towards future. If whatever I am doing now seems unsustainable it's not gonna be sustainable

There is probably some fallacy to explain this. My intuition tells me that if you have meaningless job (or you feel as if) you tend to make big deal out of small decisions, assert your territory of control/reign etc. This leads to what

Being a generalist is a meta specialization of sorts. Some people are good at assembly of pieces - almost every CTO/Architect I have admired would be considered a generalist. Such person can obtain enough knowledge to have input and be
