Google is making the opposite argument to support Go as the ideal language for vibe coding ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49261133 ) - i.e., not expressive by design, lowest-denominator, etc.

I don’t understand the point. We are all free to disobey and have to deal with the consequences. It can’t be otherwise. Nobody can pass as an automaton.

This is a qualitatively different kind of abstraction. All other abstractions still require the programmer to express the solution in a formal language, while LLMs are allowing the user to express the solution in natural language. It's

Buddhism claims that our feeling of separation (and thus the multiplicity of subjective experiences) is an illusion. But I never really understood why. My hunch is that this is related to the question of why we are experiencing this particu

We should trust engineers when they deem their own minor pull requests as not requiring review. i.e. trust engineerings ability to judge their PR as trivial. This requires trusting good intent (which I think is healthy), and trusting their

I feel this resonates with mindfulness lifestyle: give your full attention to the present moment and the quality of your activity (and product) will show.

I’d rather work on a codebase where strict standards were applied. Banning “goto” is one of such, but also allowing to be utilized under certain conditions to write state machines for example. I think we will miss innovations if we are dogm

I don’t think any technique is inherently bad: imperative, global variables, and even “goto” can be used wisely to solve problems. Functional programming (similarly type systems) is another great technique to use when you have constraints t

My two cents: being happy most of the time in your career is an impossible goal. Everyone struggles. Sometimes they are miserable, bored, frustrated, burned out, overwhelmed, confused, tired, etc. no matter what career you choose, how lucky

Executives are more politically savvy and know that in-person connections are more effective to build alliances, coalitions, trust, etc. Additionally, they have the resources to pay people to take care of their kids and do their home chores
