Typical frontend developer spew. Works with JavaScript or Emscripten, hasn't dealt with data integrity, scale, or security challenges. Threatened by people who build things from scratch. Stuck writing handlers, never to see the whole architecture. Soon to be replaced by GPT-3.

Thank you, this has been entertaining.

This is one of the funniest rebuttals on HN.

I was thinking about the exchange, and it dawned on me that GPT-3 has really demonstrated frontend generation capability. I'd absolutely love to see it build my app's data layer from description (don't call it an ORM!) but I don't even know where to start looking for that.
