    Ah, got it. Still impressive.

    The memory forking is really interesting. I wonder if copy-on-write at the VM level, O(1) with respect to machine size, won't scale cost with how many forks to take, but 320ms medi…

    So, neither?

    Isn’t frontend more complex? If my task starts with a Figma UI design, how well does a code agent do at generating working code that looks right, and iterate on it (presuming some …

    What’s the challenge with getting it working in macOS? Vulkan?

    That seems unusual. I would assume trivial means the default approach works for most cases. Perhaps mutable global variables are not a common use case. Unsafe might make it easier,…

    I have hardly come across aspiring-CEOs who do not have much ego and listen to other founders, let alone founders or serial-founders. After some founder dating last year, I am a bi…

    Morality is not about intelligence, but some folks believe living by morals is submitting oneself to the lack of intelligence (or stupidity even). The real [evil] geniuses prune th…

    There is a lot of sentiment in these comments about needing to scale still. I wonder how many need to do this in a pre-PMF stage vs growth stage? The trade off is faster growth if …

    Maybe not capabilities, but I'm wondering if Postgres has gotten any easier to scale horizontally. The administrative overhead of scaling and maintenance with MongoDB seemed lower …

    Interesting idea, but questionable scholarship.

    Hmm. Maybe you should test the site on a different phone. Not seeing an issue with responsiveness here.

    Not when the roundabouts are placed within the bounds of a 4 way stop. Not sure if those are called roundabouts, but I don’t like them.

    We don’t need to overstate racism, but “bigwig at TI” is a down leveling for Morris. Doesn’t seem right to limit greatness if it’s about race and not based on track record or other…

    How? Morris didn’t get the job because he was born in the wrong country?

    Very wealthy people have access to very exclusive and potentially unethical and/or illegal capabilities. Many do not think they are bound to the same rules as the rest of society. …

    I’m curious which are the well known projects or products that have ported or converted away from Go. Anyone have a shortlist?

    This article was kind of lazy. It’s a lot of conjecture, a couple anecdotal observations, and some rhetoric for good measure. Basically, the content was a let down from the title. …

    Are you opposed to the process by which discussion can initiate a transition from negative state to positive state? Seems healthy to me.

    The opposite seems true (regarding Go being over-fitted to Google problems). It was designed for Google, but Google has not adopted it widely. Google is still heavily C++ and Java …

    Palo Alto is in Santa Clara County whereas Menlo Park and East Palo Alto are in San Mateo. That might be how.

    Agreed. This is very well written. I discovered the joy of Go from dealing with JavaScript promises while writing an API service in Node. So many painful runtime errors uncaught or…
