I've seen lots of devs who think their codebase is the only correct way to do things. Lots of overconfident people out there. Inconsistencies are fine as long as there's file level consistency. All that really matters is if you ca

I define golden age by how much I have to do to support my family. How much work there is and ultimately how much $/hr you are paid for it. Your interpretation is also very valid. The article complains about there not being available j

I remember a documentary on people that had no work a while back. It was filmed in a town where sailing boomed. Nowadays there are almost no sailors left, lots of them never learned a different job. And we still need sailors nowadays. Same

It also caused the "Golden Age of Programming". It's only been a golden age because of high salaries for relatively low effort. So if their needs change, obviously the industry changes. This article has nothing to say really.

What people don't realize is that love isn't just having butterflies in your stomach all the time. Love changes over time, and saying I will love you forever is reasonable if sincere. I love all of my friends and I will love them

No OP is right. Everything is broken. Thinking your system isn't and its OPs issue is not sincere.

Customers will use the thing that feels best, if there's a different tool that offers more but looks bad, most customers won't swap. People will use what they are accustomed to.

If you have a business website, customers expect a clean site with good visuals and a great user experience. Unless you are as big as Amazon. Sadly overengineering things is a necessary evil nowadays. If I had the choice I wouldn't eve

Even with Laravel you will write lots of Javascript unless you go for blade templates or that other templating thing. Javascript is also great for making the web interactive. Maybe the sheer amount of SPAs out there shows us what we really

The issue is, it really isn't. It looks like a great tool because it has access to tons of stolen data. Talk to any serious professional in other fields and ask them how accurate these things are. People are just blinded by the light.

People will do anything to excuse using AI to code their shit. If it requires that much work and fine tuning to get a agent running for your current task, where's the benefit? Instead of building a project you now spend all your time f

Humans are entitled to live wherever they want. Capitalists destroying rural regions with false promises (prosperous jobs) is a thing since the industrialization. Should all people move to overrun big cities? Small once established markets
