> Far better to let the company be punished for its failings, so it can (slowly, slowly) adjust, or be replaced by companies that operate better.

Well, if the company is replaced due to lack of heroes, doesn’t this mean that it actually needs heroes?

The industry as a whole might not need them, and it may be bad for individual heroes (though I think it’s more nuanced than that), but it seems to me like any particular company might need them.

Sarkar argues that “AI shaming arises from a class anxiety induced in middle class knowledge workers, and is a form of boundary work to maintain class solidarity and limit mobility into knowledge work.”

I think there is at least some truth to this.

Another possible cause of AI shaming is that reading AI writing feels like a waste of time. If the author didn’t bother to write it, why should I bother to read it and provide feedback?

I’d use a boilerplate like SaaS Pegasus.

Supabase may be what you’re looking for

Agree that this helps in some ways, but it also adds complexity. You can e.g. subscribe to a billing SaaS, but then you have to link your system to the billing system somehow

I saw an interesting idea floating around a while back: Put in a screen instead of the trackpad. I can see it being useful for drawing as well as picking emojis and so on, but it couldn’t be always available like the touch bar can.

Thanks for sharing.

Have you considered adding a “business app” category? Thinking of things like CRMs and learning management systems. Maybe Salesforce would be the holotype?

Considering/discussing is very different from actually making it happen.

Looks great! I entered a value for an item, and it was automatically denominated in USD. The amount I entered was in NOK. How can I change the currency? I checked the profile page, but I couldn’t find it there.

Interesting take — hadn’t thought about it that way before.

There is one crucial piece missing, though: universities’ incentives. At least in Norway where I live, universities are paid the same for many STEM, humanities and social sciences programs. This causes an oversupply of e.g. historians compared to e.g. software developers, as universities are free to ignore labor market realities.

It’s elevator music. Relax and enjoy the ride

Congrats with 1.0. A couple of things I’m curious about:

1. How does EdgeDB compare to Supabase? Thinking both of realtime functionality and row-level security. 2. If I was to use EdgeDB instead of Django, how would I go about it? In other words, how can I set up a batteries-included, server-side web app?

An adblocker would be a killer app for AR glasses.

Some I try to live by:

- Praise in public, criticise in private

- You could leave life right now

- Fix yourself first

- Be honest

That sounds… perfectly logical?

I don’t have access to the statistic you are referring to, so we might be talking past each other. But, as far as I can tell, macOS is a growing part of Apple’s revenue, at least over the last year:

According to https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2021/04/apple-reports-second-..., Apple “posted a March quarter record revenue of $89.6 billion, up 54 percent year over year …”.

Mac, on the other hand, grew by 69 percent year over year.

> Mac sales went from $5.4B to a record $9.1B year-over-year.
