For most people, thinking was always a hobby. AI is actually doing them good.

I wish your own coding would just be augmented like somebody looking over your shoulder. The problem with the current AI coding is that you don't know your code base anymore. Basically, like somebody helping you figure out stuff faster, update documentation etc.
Re:Silicon Valley’s business model is a scam on Tuesday July 18, 2023 @11:31AM (#36774128)
The article is leaving out a key fact. You have to build something people want. You can throw as much VC money onto a bad product (and business model) and it still won't work. Figuring out a new product and viable business model is hard. That is the reason why so many startups fail.

What the article is basically saying is that "monopolies are bad". I think everyone agrees on that and there are many examples in the tech industry, but then again monopolies are easier to achieve today with digital products.

What the article should have written was: Be more active in breaking up tech monopolies.

More browsers need to make "tab categories" available. It really helps to organize your tab clutter by topic.
Re:The State of Meteor Part 2: What Happens Next on Thursday January 21, 2016 @05:21AM (#10944353)
I'm sure that Angular 2 would be a better choice for a Ecosystem like Meteor. React is very nice, but annoying to find tutorials, get a decent size app going (routing etc) and Angular 2 is more mature (all the good and bad points of NG1 and other js-libs were considered). Next to Google also Microsoft is betting on Angular 2 (TypeScript). This will boost the community greatly. NG1 was slow. NG2 is amazingly fast (webworkers/server side rendering). So for a Meteor Use Case I would pick NG2. If I wanna build a simple Snippet I would use React.
