   I'm laughing at the moment. I saw this post and realized the author was Kent Beck and thought oh wow he has a new book coming out. Then saw he posted this to HN and thought wow HN is amazing you get posts directly from famous people. T

   How can you argue Excel's implicit typing is an advantage. Names turn to dates, strings to numbers, and all sorts of other unexpected nightmares.

   I'd love a version of this tool that alters my face enough to avoid it being useful for facial recognition. I don't really want to publish my face on linked in and other sites as I'm not keen on it getting indexed in some fut

   So the banks can take risks but the tax payer pays when things go wrong? Maybe there needs to be regulation that forces banks to hold way more cash?

   Nope, the programmers simply are the suppliers of the product owner. Everything John said still holds true of their position.

    You have to be a little charitable towards an LLM ;). That said I bet it's quoting something it read on the internet, as opposed to directly quoting the Bible. There is even a Wikipedia page on term https://en.wikipedia.org&

    Wait, didn't it get the Bible quote correct? "The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly."

    DI has a place. In my opinion it's for plugin systems. If you have a core system that enables third parties to extend DI can be brilliant.

    I prefer to use the rule, single source of truth. If you have some business logic make sure you always call the same code to run that logic. That way you're not looking for abstraction layers to do avoid lines of code. You are looking

    They really need regulation that requires banks to hold more funds. They have to be able to withstand small runs.

    100% But I think this is worse. Bailing out individuals is one level, bailing out massive banks is pure corruption.

    There is the feeling that tools have gotten worse over time that complexity has snuck in and older ways were better. That's true but it's because you have to deliver more complex solutions now. Expectations have increased. The sim

    Yes but they got screwed by incompetence at their bank. Why should the tax payer get screwed instead?

    There is a risk in using a bank. The risk should be low and it's normal to assume your money is safe in the bank. This incident proves it's not. The tax payer didn't take on this risk so why should they have to cover the los

    Very true. My son is six months old and as we've chosen to breastfeed half the time I'm completely useless to my son. I can change nappies and comfort him but most of the time he needs his mum. I can see why society developed the

    Can you share more about your side business? For some reason it's really exciting to hear some is doing something other than SAAS.

    I'm interested in the author's latest SAAS. Can you really game SEO by spamming out templated articles? I thought Google filtered out that sort of thing.
