    I saw someone posit this exact idea at EuroSTAR in Stockholm on Wednesday, fwiw. Two guys from an Australian company suggest this & how both development and testing will be totally…

    I’ve been buying shares in ASML and below, such as TSCM and Applied Materials, but it’s a brittle plan if anything revolutionary pops up!

    Who are their real competitors? They’ve been buying parts of the supply chain recently - they seem to have a real moat unless regulation gets involved (Serious question: I am just …

    Ask HN: Are there any Gen-AI products in the wild?

    I went to a major conference and the AI hype was mad. All devs will be replaced, all testers will be replaced, code will be generated from a prompt each time, tests will be generat…

    Yeah if one instance created one ID, then any integration tests creating more than one user would have failed. There were no testing or logging on a system with live users while do…

    If I give them a trampoline they shouldn't spend all day jumping on it, just because they can. Especially if they're busy with features. They literally had 1 instance of the backen…

    They had 8 AWS tasks running 5 instances each with code written in TypeScript and Python, with frameworks like next.js, with $40 revenue and only a few weeks dev time? What the act…

    Can’t you set it in the .zshrc file?

    Hillel Wayne did a good "study" on this by speaking to a bunch of engineers who moved into software, engineers who stayed in software, and engineers who only worked in software (ye…
