Can’t have Hacker News without the hubris! Love it

I had to check as well. Their logos are also similar.

It’s simply not a better name. If it was, it would’ve caught on by now.

SSR isn’t a craze. Web applications have been served that way for literal decades now.

> The whole point of free software should be that I do not have to adapt to some companies's idea of what is modern, if I do not want to.

This hasn’t changed.

Geez. Do you really think the number matters? I would be grateful to the creator even if it was 3 days.

Literal eye roll. It’s close enough.

The article touches on this by framing chronic inflammation (e.g. exposure to air pollution over years) as the problem.

Surprised by the amount of mentions of ECMAScript here. It’s the worst possible name to me.

> instead of writing 100 class names for every element, every page, every project, again and again…

I'm turned off from daisyUI with marketing like this. The alternative to daisyUI certainly isn't this.

I use Tailwind in a similar way that daisyUI does: by putting my utility classes in components and reusing the components.

daisyUI's value prop is that not everyone wants to do this for their custom design system. They should just stick to that instead of making false claims.

With all due respect, this perspective baffles me. Some see it your way, others see so much opportunity.

> There is a popular argument that a software developer’s job is not write software but to solve a user’s problem. Bullshit

Wait, what?

> I was never particularly interested in the code itself

> Instead, I was always more interested in the product

Confusing contradictions aside, I had trouble engaging with this article.

The author seems to think every developer thinks like they do. Some people actually enjoy helping their business/users.

The author also has trouble imagining other perspectives as a people manager. From the linked article,

> I do not get any sort of high from managing people. I don’t think anyone gets that same high from this role

Hate to break it to the author again, but some people actually enjoy seeing those they mentor/manage succeed.

Being a people manager isn’t the right fit for everyone. Perhaps being a developer in the next 20, 5, or 1 year won’t be the right fit for the same people it is for today.

Remix or React Router + Vite is still great.

> IMO if one has to work this hard to sell/explain a tech there's 2 possibilities 1/ there is no real need of tech 2/ it's a flawed abstraction

There’s of course a third option: the solution justifies the complexity. Some problems are hard to solve, and the solutions require new intuition.

It’s easy to say that, but it’s also easy to say it should be easier to understand.

I’m waiting to see how this plays out.

This comment section is predictably boring and shows that HN isn’t always a great place for discourse. Change is hard, I guess.

From the article

> This is not the dinosaur killer. This is not the planet killer. This is at most dangerous for a city

These days, vendor lock-in hardly feels like a worthwhile consideration when evaluating frameworks. A near complete rewrite feels inevitable when transitioning from, say, React to Svelte.

> most smart people know what the term “cargo cult” means from Feynman

Unsure which group you’re in after making this generalization

Sorry AI, not taking the bait today.

That’s fine. Not everyone needs to “get it”. Some like it. Some don’t. Cool.

The _very_ first paragraph quotes a Muslim saying "It’s the destruction of our religion.”.

Looks like the application process will take a few minutes online. Why is this news right now?

Are there any privacy safe companies out there that provides similar services? I’m interested in the ancestry and health aspects of 23andMe, but I obviously don’t trust the company.

Huh? I didn’t say I used it. Being optional doesn’t change the thing that it is annoying. It is annoying which is precisely why I just….don’t.

Huh? I didn’t say I used it. Something optional can still be annoying. That’s I just…don’t.

Seems like you assume everyone likes window snapping because you do. It’s one of the most annoying aspects of using Windows for me.

> now my defacto playbook for building lasting bottom up disruptive cloud companies

What companies have you built (or played a role in building) using this "playbook" that fit your description?

> No. No.

Saying “no” multiple times as if a statement is so absurdly wrong is such a meme at this point and another interesting difference between face to face and online interactions. I can’t imagine having a discussion with friends and someone throwing a bunch of “no”s out.

In addition to that piece, Matt Levine also did an excellent analysis https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2023-03-14/svb-to...
