"React by Default is Killing Front End Innovation" is probably a better headline for the post. It looks towards the present and the future, not how we got here. All in all, this story has played out many times before, and will aga

I believe your link says you must apply at the country you're visiting, or the country you're visiting first. And you must apply at the consulate for the country you are a resident of. So if I was applying to visit France, I could

This problem isn't exclusive to current implementations of AI. I had a US business professor explain in one of my business classes that making a bit more money might push you over into the next tax bracket and cost you more in taxes th

It seems reasonable to say that AGI will take a ton of resources. You'll need investors for power, GPUs, researchers, data, and the list goes on. It's a lot easier to get there with viable commercial products than handouts. I&#x27

Lets be happy when someone says they're hiring juniors. The poster sounds like someone who invests in people and doesn't rule them out based on years of experience on their resume. From all of the "where are the seniors?&quot

This assumes that the market is actually opaque for both parties. The information asymmetry between employer and employee regarding wages is pretty well documented. There are other pressures on wages in particular: not filling a position fo

I tend to downplay the impact of role model demographics as well, but then I recognize that I'm represented literally everywhere--except perhaps US football and basketball. I'm willing to accept that because the norm is people tha

Isn't this attributable to needing to focus on driving and the controls being a secondary concern? The astronauts don't seem to have much more to focus on than the screens and controls in front of them.

Be careful with the "build X for small businesses". It's deceptive to look around at small businesses, see them using bad tools and think there's opportunity there. The truth is there's usually a reason--the small b
