I don’t think the article is suggesting this at all. My takeaway from it (and my own view) is that we need to continue hiring, developing, and growing talent as we have in the past. Today’s AI tools can generate working code, but it is ofte

I did just that early last year when I realized that they simply don’t have the infrastructure, support personnel or sense of urgency I needed from a broker to handle my money. This is pre-free trades — I decided that I rather pay a fee th

Bummer. Coincidentally, I just (about an hour ago) purchased a bunch of license for Transmit 5 Mac -- fantastic product. I've also been a Prompt and Transmit iOS user since release -- also great products.

I've been using it for about a year now, and have come to prefer it over bootstrap and foundation (it's grid system in particular). It's also well-documented, and has a clean/well-organized codebase.
