I don't believe the 10x claims, but since when has salary been any indication of productivity?

The problem is, who is moving “society on” and what is their agenda. I don’t think it’s healthy to encourage an attitude to just accept all change without any sort of reflection or push back.

How do you do "due diligence" on an API that frequently makes undocumented changes and only publishes acknowledgement of change after users complain? You're also talking about internal technical implementations of a chat bot.

Surely you jest? The software industry is in its current sorry state because of multiple generations of human developers happily producing an endless stream of shady features.

There is no shortage of game dev talent or adjacent creatives. It’s doubtful they will go on to find roles in the industry given the current climate and they presumably don’t have the capital to gamble on multiple years of game dev for pote

Get where faster? Get what over with? Aren’t you talking about destroying livelihoods? Pushing people into poverty and/or homelessness? What is the benefit exactly?

What is an example of a "high-end page-layout program" referenced in that document? I mean, of course I assume they exist for professional type setting, book publishing and such, but I have never seen or heard of the actual softwa

Every entertainment market is saturated. Even if every creative endeavour stopped now, there would still be more freely available content to last more then any individual human life span. Unless you’re the type of person that actively consi

Feels like the more important question is how are you going to do all these things when Slack cuts you off, or there is some new Slack policy that prevents it, or they increase their pricing by 1000% Haven’t you basically built your entire

I feel like when I'm presented with most modern criticism of Apple devices/software I tend to agree, but despite all the mostly valid criticisms I see batted about, who is doing consumer tech better? I've recently (finally) m

If it’s not a secret that is used to sign something, then the secret has to get from the vault to the application at some point. What mechanism are you suggesting where access to the production system doesn’t let you also access that secret
