Note that this doesn’t include taxes - which would change the ratings significantly. Would love to see the tax-aware version.

I’ll never know the answer to the question because the AI writing is such a turn-off.

They could have prevented the entire debacle by running it in a four loop.

It would be amazing because while unemployed you’d have all the time in the world to play with that software

“All models are wrong, but some are useful.”

I’m going to go out on a limb here and assume there is nobody on your people-I-respect list?

Very briefly, before coming back down to earth.

It’s a great article and I hope you don’t think I’m trying to assign any kind of agenda to it (on your part or mine). For some reason while reading it, it evoked a sense of queasiness in me - entirely my issue. Perhaps the contrast with the healthy vegetables I’d just eaten and an appreciation for the animal that contributed to my meal put me in an unusual state of mind.

This is a lighthearted topic and a well-written article.

But what it reveals about our relationship with food is a little unsettling. The intensely chemical nature of Doritos and the whole notion of turning flesh into something alien - it’s all very far removed from food as a source of nourishment and of natural origin.

The locked down nature of this makes it perfect for my dad. If there’s a way to connect it to WhatsApp that would be brilliant.

Fantastic, thanks. I love Lua and especially the mindset that goes along with it. Will definitely check this out. Combining it with Datastar could be brilliant - I wonder if TurboLua supports SSE streaming.

He’ll probably respond quicker if you get his name right

Reading code is very hard because you have to build a mental model from code that others wrote. You’re trying to understand what they wrote, the intent behind that, and what’s wrong or missing - that’s just a fundamentally hard thing.

But building mental models based on data and communications from others is one of the most valuable problem solving and communication skills there is in business, precisely what Carson is getting at in his essay.

“React has entrenched itself as a lingua franca of code extruders.”

Best sentence I’ve read all day

I’ll still take that UI 1000x over Golden Gate.

I took his comment to mean that programming jobs should be kept for people who genuinely care about developing a deep understanding and a willingness to learn, instead of those just typing prompts and not really caring beyond that.

I don’t buy into that narrative, but I don’t understand why Ling’s release is more exciting?

Try using the same Internet that you used to download templeos to search for stuff.

A friend had been trying for two weeks to upload some documents on the IRS website. Every time the error message reads “Sorry, the upload function is temporarily disabled. Please try again later.”

Then I told her to try a different browser instead of Safari and it worked immediately. So the function isn’t temporary disabled, it’s just their generic something went wrong error message. Tell me that’s not insanely user hostile.

It really isn’t.

Like Digi-D, the authentication app for all government services. It’s a confusing Byzantine mess for elderly people. For a first-world country with gazillions of rules to protect every minority you can think of, they should be deeply ashamed of the barely beta quality turd they’ve unleashed on the elderly. You’d think some kind of geriatric/cognitive/UX specialist could have been consulted.

You’re asking what happens when people have no critical thinking skills. For the answer just look to your left and to your right.

Man that was as a different ethos back then…”Draper realized that his ‘learning curve was flattened out’ in venture capital and detoured into public service”. Subsequently he funded 280 non profits.

The A16z team of today is probably deeply confused reading this article.

Funny how David Sacks is no longer AI czar at the exact same moment that “AI could be very dangerous” sentiment is peaking. I guess now that the job requires some actual work he’s decided it’s time for him to step aside. Truly the bar for the new guy couldn’t be any lower.

I recognize many of these behaviors from my childhood. Fortunately I’ve grown out of most of them. These ways of framing issues and feedback are very valuable, even in adult life.

Everyone seems to forget that if everyone followed the “AI-proof career” advice to become a plumber, electrician or carpenter - then there’d be so many of them that the pay would go down considerably

It’s funny, the article proceeds to answer the question in great detail: familiarity, level of abstraction, documentation, etc.

I agree with his point that learning to do it yourself can be fun and lead to a flywheel of improvement where the next time you’re faster and the next time faster still.

In the past that was the recipe for success as a developer, nowadays with AI many feel that’s no longer the case.

Doesn’t mean the concerns aren’t valid

You might say a worthy successor

What a nothingburger. Users don’t like change, we already know this. I bet those same users hated Teams the first time they used that too.
