That's how I read it, too. They pinpointed the problem of over-coordination to the messenger (coordinator) instead of the teams demanding final approval over launches (coordination). Won't merging different teams under a single ow

By Chinese company, do you mean Taiwan is Chinese in the same way China is Chinese?

In my mind, postmortems with a human touch to be subtle defensiveness, passive aggressive blame, and unempathetic factual digs at others. I read the lack of empathy in the article as simply following best practices.

The memory forking is really interesting. I wonder if copy-on-write at the VM level, O(1) with respect to machine size, won't scale cost with how many forks to take, but 320ms median seems good for the branch-and-explore pattern withou

Isn’t frontend more complex? If my task starts with a Figma UI design, how well does a code agent do at generating working code that looks right, and iterate on it (presuming some browser MCP)? Some automated tests seem enough for an geneti

That seems unusual. I would assume trivial means the default approach works for most cases. Perhaps mutable global variables are not a common use case. Unsafe might make it easier, but it’s not obvious and probably undesired. I don’t know R

I have hardly come across aspiring-CEOs who do not have much ego and listen to other founders, let alone founders or serial-founders. After some founder dating last year, I am a bit jaded, though.

Morality is not about intelligence, but some folks believe living by morals is submitting oneself to the lack of intelligence (or stupidity even). The real [evil] geniuses prune their decision tree by not considering morality so they mainta

There is a lot of sentiment in these comments about needing to scale still. I wonder how many need to do this in a pre-PMF stage vs growth stage? The trade off is faster growth if your PMF bet wins and loss of time if your bet goes south.

Maybe not capabilities, but I'm wondering if Postgres has gotten any easier to scale horizontally. The administrative overhead of scaling and maintenance with MongoDB seemed lower to Postgres to me. Would love to hear from others with

Hmm. Maybe you should test the site on a different phone. Not seeing an issue with responsiveness here.

Not when the roundabouts are placed within the bounds of a 4 way stop. Not sure if those are called roundabouts, but I don’t like them.

We don’t need to overstate racism, but “bigwig at TI” is a down leveling for Morris. Doesn’t seem right to limit greatness if it’s about race and not based on track record or other meritocratic signals.

How? Morris didn’t get the job because he was born in the wrong country?

This article was kind of lazy. It’s a lot of conjecture, a couple anecdotal observations, and some rhetoric for good measure. Basically, the content was a let down from the title. On the other hand, I didn’t know Data Scientist candidates w

Are you opposed to the process by which discussion can initiate a transition from negative state to positive state? Seems healthy to me.

The opposite seems true (regarding Go being over-fitted to Google problems). It was designed for Google, but Google has not adopted it widely. Google is still heavily C++ and Java after all these years. The outside world loves it way more.

Agreed. This is very well written. I discovered the joy of Go from dealing with JavaScript promises while writing an API service in Node. So many painful runtime errors uncaught or unlogged because promises don’t (or didn’t) require the cat

My reading of the article is that because LangChain is abstracted poorly, frameworks should not be used, but that seems a bit far. my experience is that Python has a frustrating developer experience for production services. So I would prefe
