By my definition in a platform/product sense unix philosophy = not trying to do all the things and being happy about it. But yeah, same idea basically.

On paper they've already done the whole MVP/product-fit phase and are using the money to fast-forward into $100m-$1B ARR territory. This thread is talking about a relatively minor update as part of that phase, and leading people t

My guess is they’re realized documentation is a huge cost center and even their own technical writers are overburdened by the churn of deprecating APIs and changing best practices. It’s worse then the JavaScript community.

You'd need a lot of controls. See a startup with 50k MRR after 12 months and 10m followers? Those 10m followers must have really helped! Oh wait that company actually raised 10m and spent 2m on advertising...

You see it in backend code too. For example Golang's context.WithTimeout is used to time out http requests and database calls that may be taking too long. This is particularly irksome with microservices where multiple services are runn

I guess the idealists would say "Waymo will be so wildly profitable that its holding company will opt not to pursue secondary revenue streams such as advertising and data resale".

Realistically it won't be discontinued (if it works well), realistically you can expect to see unskippable ads in your car one day (unless you sign-up to a youtube-google-music-premium-red subscription).

In practice though if the benefiting company doesn't get their way there are plenty of social and financial penalties they can levy: you won't get any severance, unemployment, or possibly even a referral. You may be ostracized by

In ~2010 I was really interested in private server development for popular MMORPG games. People would take the game clients and build their own servers to play off of, then edit the client just enough so it was talking to the private server

Ya I was just a little confused by the title "1,200 slide decks by category...". Its perfectly fair to promote your product while providing a free service, but it does raise a mental flag of "if the goal is to promote product

The coup de grace is functioning and sane server side rendering of ReactJS apps by c# applications. If Microsoft can make that easy and simple it will lead to a huge churn as many software companies replace less efficient nodeJS application
