Also start a union at your company and sue them if they retaliate.

Engineers not caring is what leads to people working for scumbags who build socially poisonous technology.

You might not like it but you actually live in a world with other people and building technology often affects their lives and they have opinions on it. For AI a lot of that impact has been negative.

Harvey was always an upstart in the legal tech industry. There's other companies that have a much better understanding of the market and compliance issues but you don't hear about them because nobody wants to talk about legal tech.

I mentioned those explicitly. People are still using it as a backend language for projects like huge SaaS deployments though, with the hypothesis being that dev time is expensive. With modern languages like kotlin and go, I think that gap is much too narrow to justify using a slow and badly designed language with good syntax.

No we should write one of the many modern programming languages that handle certain projects way better, including kotlin, go, or Java. The only things python is best in class at are scripting and as a harness for high performance c++ or fortran.

Python is a garbage language. Dynamic types are a disaster for maintaining large codebases and we waste enormous amounts of compute running large systems with it.

Zig does in fact do some stuff to address memory management like making allocations more explicit using allocators and shipping with arenas.

Maybe they should put more consideration towards quality if they have a ton of memory issues.

This is a good reason to move our infrastructure further off of being dependent on a highly volatile region actually.

I'm actually starting a new project to create a gba emulator in zig, and also starting with chip8. I'm going to skip nand to tetris because I played Turing complete. Cool to see I'm on the right track!
