Yes, hence the value of an acquisition that has found a way to service these lines of business very profitably. The tone of your original comment suggests you believe they're going to take over and start shutting off morally unacceptab

Why do people think this? Since when do giant corporations care about morals? As usual, everything is about money. You can be sure that part of the interest in a paypal acquisition is paypal's consumer wallet product which allows them

You said: > I just write my code and then point node at the main file, and this even includes front-end code for the browser. Then you said: > I never said Node is did anything for the front end. So which is it?

> It only takes a few microseconds and I don't need any bundlers And yet you're using one. Esbuild is one of the most popular bundlers in the js ecosystem, your workflow is functionally identical to any other bundler workflow

I don't know what tooling you're using in go, but node does not do any kind of transformation to assets it serves over http. Running logic written in TypeScript on the front end requires some kind of bundler so that the browser ca

In such a future where LLMs hypothetically dominate the SDLC, the trade would be much more like pottery than medicine - i.e. a commodity in such obscene abundance that its functional utility would be entirely divorced from its creation. In

Again, yes you explicitly did: > I just write my code and then point node at the main file, and this even includes front-end code for the browser. It sounds like you're just making stuff up.

> On application startup I assemble together the various front end files I need and store this in memory as a string. So in other words, you created your own bundler? Node isn't actually doing the work for you on the front-end.

by root_axis 3mo ago
Yes, but how does your http server deliver the imported code to the front-end? Are you using some type of streaming bundler that does real time builds? Something isn't making sense here.

You write all your code in TS - great. You run node with the TS support - great. That doesn't explain how your front-end TS code is transformed into JS. You seem to be suggesting that node does it automatically, but it doesn't. T

You literally said "this even includes front-end code for the browser". So what exactly are you referring to here?

by root_axis 3mo ago
That presumption is wrong, and doesn't quite make sense if you think about it.

As I said, any app with at least a "moderately complex UI". If your app is just a sequence of web forms and stays that way forever, then you're not the target audience of a UI framework anyway.

by root_axis 3mo ago
Labeling UI frameworks as artificial complexity is simply a sign of inexperience manifested as NIH syndrome. The vanilla approach is fine for a personal or toy project, but it's an unmitigated disaster for a project with even a moderat

Interesting question to study, but I'm extremely skeptical of the experimental design. They used Opus 4.6 to synthetically produce "degraded" or "cleaned" code bases for relative comparison in the experiment. Worse,

The difference is a lot more than just throwing scale at it, pretty much everything useful comes from an evolving landscape of post-training techniques. Of course, param count and context length are also important because they increase th

It's actually embarrassing that she thought all that prompting would have been acceptable during the talk. A qualifed researcher would have had their agent perform the talk on their behalf rather than waste everyone's time.

It's not relevant. However, if you want to talk about a broader point, that's ok. > LLMs appear to learn distributions of representations, they both develop a hierarchy of those representations, both have early layers that pro

The post I responded to stated that the commenter was just a next-word-sayer, but that's wrong. The similarities you draw aren't really relevant to my reply.
