There's still a cost/benefit to building and maintaining a service. LLMs make it easier to build, but the cost does not scale to zero.

The point is that we will still need senior level employees, but the way fresh grads get to that level is generally through entry level positions, experience and mentorship. I don'…

Good thing that's exactly what the article suggests!

This happens regardless of which framework is used or even if no framework is used. Plenty of web developers do not understand how the browser or JS work at a deep level.

How does versioning work? After you fork an HTML app, is there a way to update it and get newer features without manual intervention? I'm thinking about the Kanban board example I …

> a mishmash of vibe coded stuff you don’t understand. No, there is a difference between "I wrote this code" and "I understand this code". You don't need to write all the code in a…

Why do you say "JSX"? JSX is an HTML templating language for JavaScript. templ looks like an HTML templating language for Go. Every popular web backend language has an HTML templat…

Here's the react-table example app with 112,500 records, just like your example. I am not really seeing much of a performance difference (and this is in dev mode - it would be fast…

This comparison is disingenuous and off-putting. When I read "a React button" I assume you are talking about ` ` and the React runtime, not some third party libraries.

But logging in and posting don't seem like "undoable" actions to me. That would be similar to undoing a save or undoing a login to Adobe CC in Photoshop. Things definitely get tric…

> Does the fact that WFH is not a thing mean that in the real world, for most people, coming to the office IS actually more efficient? I don't think the labor market is efficient t…

Huh? The average working week in the EU is 37.5 hours a week, or 7.5 hours a day: https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/products-eurostat-news/w/d... Breakfast and lunch are not paid b…

Fair point, but I have seen a lot of shitty software developed with this mantra. Usually because the "iterate" part is forgotten in favor of the next "rapid" development. I agree t…

It's important to note that this is only really relevant advice for a specific type of startup that is still trying to rapidly iterate to find product market fit. Personally I find…

I don't. Regardless who posted it, discussion and constructive criticism is warranted in the comments.

I think this is a fair criticism. You chose to share this on hackernews, which invites feedback (including constructive criticism). I don't see the problem ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Do you expect …

Do you think this "MetaWindow" is much more attractive? Here's a similar looking transparent sound barrier in a new building area that is already starting to be covered in graffiti…

I’d argue that the rich nations have an obligation to find a way to structure a less carbon intensive economy. The global south can benefit from the R&D that the west does. It’s no…

Sure, all mega cities have even larger metro areas. I'm not pretending Chicago doesn't have a huge metro area. But my point stands: the European route has much higher catchment tha…

Oh if we're talking about metro area population, then the EU route is also significantly higher (for example, Paris goes from 2 million to 13 million). I was just looking at city l…

I don't know why we're still stuck on the Berlin Madrid topic, but I'll bite :-) I added up the population of all those cities: 6.13 million. The population of Berlin and Madrid al…

It's only misleading if you disregard the rest of my comment :-) You have identified a part of the USA with a decent density of cities - nice! That is exactly what I think. There a…

It's an average, so of course it says nothing about the distribution. I don't find that to be misleading, or at least I did not intend to insinuate that the USA is a perfectly dist…

The scale of the country is an excuse in many cases. There are densely populated areas in many parts of the USA, but nearly all of Europe is densely populated. The EU has an averag…

That may well be true, but it's not what the article is about. The article is about individuals removing personal data from GenAI products. GenAI companies in many places have a le…
