It depends I imagine. Core bankend bank system, database, transactions and such sure, but what about the web and mobile client? I'm down to get better customer experience if they can ship faster without breaking the bank. What about fr

I don't really care about the web builder, a better slide deck creator I'm down for with MCP capabilities, pulling in things like Atlassian & Dyantrace metrics for slides would be nice including github issues etc.

if you loose an edit jj op log is incredible, I've saved a ton of work more-so now with AI's making mistakes. Also workspaces are super fast compared to git worktree's - same concept, different implementation. I agree, that w

So glad to see this on HN, here to support it. JJ is amazing, the hardest hurdle was not the tool but the toolchain and ecosystem when I started ~ 2 years ago. It's grown rapidly and is incredible to see the community grow!

YES YES YES! Excalidraw is amazing, I recently embedded it into my vibe coded project to add version control integration with it. Honestly one of highest quality tools I've used for my workflow, does what it needs to do and doesn'

Jujutsu honestly is the future IMO, it already does what you have outlined but solved in a different way with merges, it'll let you merge but outline you have conflicts that need to be resolved for instance. It's been amazing watc

why would they want this type of check? Like what could it possibly be doing for the end customer or features available?

I get your points here; I've had a similar discussion with my VP of Engineering. His argument is that I'm not hired to write `if` statements, I'm hired to solve problems. AI can solve it faster that's what he cares about

Whatever happened to that Microsoft project that would use a lazer to destroy the wings off female mosquitos?

Honestly the M$FT thing might be the greatest thing to happen to the Linux community, so much fresh blood and hopefully far more curious tinkers will continue to make the ecosystem better. I believe 2026 will finally be the year of Linux de

Legit is there any reasonable cost alternative solutions, because I'd use that in a heart beat. That still have enterprise/business level support?

A book I read 'spark' by John J Ratey, discussed this in a few chapters. Cardio/Running at 70% maximum heart rate lead to brain plasticity and even allowing new synapses to make connections and grow. However, he did argue an

Is there a name for this phenomenon, where with limited resources humans get more creative? There are still some astonishing technologies that are ongoing today, but much more limited to the early era of computer science.

hey just curious, any reason why some of these articles I see from time to time don't apply some simply CSS? I don't mind the raw html, I'm mostly wondering if there's some benefit to it that I might not be aware of.

I read a book called spark by John r. Ratey. Changed my perspective a lot, some of the newer research and school programs happening from the research is promising. My biggest take away is that the brain is not wired primarily for thinking,

Still tied up to windows though? Or does the Linux build work on par now?

Honestly have to agree a sticky note and swim lanes in an office was the most productive strategy I've ever worked in. No BA, no scrum and only a TE that managed e2e and integration test. No, Jira no sprint, no breakdowns. Just do what

Woah really? " But will easily allow "jail bait" or abuse porn"? Isn't that major flags for FBI and stuff? Can't imagine it's not been flagged if their servers are hosting the content?
