It's great that LLMs provide opportunity for non-software engineers to make tech products, but I wonder how those "vibe-coded" products will fare when faced with actually maintaining the code (and also accounting for tech deb

Simplified syntax helps with maintainability for large projects? You're talking about a "modern" language which had no generics for the better part of its life? The language filled to the brim with "if err != nil"?

TypeScript & Rust don't "look nice to work with" because they force you to write maintainable code that doesn't just stop working because of a random runtime error. In my opinion, Go looks nice to work with but actua

I guess by "blue collar devs" (as you said, mundane CRUD etc.) they mean devs that will quickly get replaced by AI.

I wonder if there is something like this but open-source, so I could customize this. I'm looking for a tool to solve UWB positioning (for indoor navigation) - to be able to know where to optimally place various UWB anchor points.

That's on the companies for structuring their interviews like that. Actual technological competence is not measured, only skill in algorithms and data structures, 75% irrelevant for the job..

Impressive! I'm wondering if something like this is possible with other models, because of Gemini's extremely large context length certainly helping a lot with parsing such large documents.

I'll add another analogy of my own: "guy harvests his own ice, is mad at others for buying it from the store" He is mad at others using AI on his favorite blogging website. I think it is an insult to himself, because most AI

Love this idea! I presume you're using cellular? Won't it rack up a lot of costs?

I like this! I always carry a screwdriver and various kinds of cables (along with my laptop) to school/work. Makes me think I should actually make a tiny toolkit out of it!

I agree with you. He's conflating memory safety with languages that provide memory safety (by which I think he means Rust, as that's another thing listed in his "disliked" things list) - that's what I feel is the

My point exactly! (Well not only being afraid of them, but also being a fan of them being objectified and generally being treated as less..) In his case, being (mostly) straight (taken from his website) means being doomed from ever having a

I agree with your sentiment - and I apologize, I've since revised my comment. Hating on memory safety as a concept is pretty cognitively dissonant for a programmer (and in this case [& many others], cognitive dissonance is a sign o

How is the hypothetical person's nationality in any way relevant? Oh, yes, it's relevant, because the Western society hates racists, so if he is something the society doesn't want, then he must be mentally ill! No. This guy i

Not only that, but also hating on memory safety (for no reason at all) is just dumb. Most of his software is just simple projects, except maybe this, it's definitely not something I'd use in my day to day life. My opinion on him i

His biggest beef with WP Engine is that their code is "bastardized" (???), because it doesn't enable revisions by default for their websites. That's one of the dumbest arguments I've heard. He's trying to convi

This only tanks the reputation of Mullenweg himself and his WordPress hosting company. WordPress powers about 40% of the web - it is too big to fail (as of now).
