The huge number of companies building RISC-V chips and really crazy optimizations that they are doing in all kinds of spaces are a very real counterweight to your notion. And RISC-V is just starting here with shoestring design and fab budge

I really like django, but since being involved in it from early days, whenever someone now praises Django, I am reminded of this talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i6Fr65PFqfk DjangoCon 2008 Keynote: Cal Henderson

This was true about immigration offices because government did not invest in immigration offices, and when they did, in typical German fashion, they were very slow. Now, most cities are finally coming to terms with it. But in the mean time,

Coding is not solved. Who said coding is solved? Coding is incredibly complex. What is coding? It is writing down specifications. Imagine a simple computer with just a 1920x1080 pixel screen, a 104 key keyboard and 3 button mouse. That is 2
