100% this. AI is automating the code generation. Being able to clearly describe a problem and work with the AI to design a solution, prioritise what to put the AI to work on, set u…

Google Search has no stickiness and they managed to build a behemoth. ChatGPT is a great product, but the lack of stickiness comes into play because there are many viable alternati…

The number of ReDoS vulnerabilities we see in Dependabot alerts for NPM packages we’re only using in client code is absurd. I’d love a fix for this that was aware of whether the pa…

I dunno, that seems a bit narrow minded to me. You're making an assumption about talking to AI being a worse experience than talking to a person (which is frequently _terrible_). W…

My take is that they’re not necessarily harmful in and of themselves, but it’s absolutely harmful to think that this is the way to grow and get traction. It’s not a repeatable appr…

Annual growth rate is typically a big factor in PE acquisition multiples. At a 4x multiple of ARR, I’d hazard a guess that this was on the lower side.

List pricing is $0.05 per GB after 150TB and at high volume it’s cheaper than that

From the quoted snippet, every page load is leaking both the domain and authed user’s ID to Firebase.

I agree in principle, but if it also generated a test, how would you know that was valid? The value I get from copilot is the ability to code faster , not the ability to code.

DBML ( https://dbml.dbdiagram.io/docs/ ) is the only thing I've seen in this space.

What kinds of products were those teams building?

Yep: https://openai.com/blog/march-20-chatgpt-outage Some kind of concurrency bug in a library they were using to retrieve cached data from Redis led to this leak. > We took ChatGP…

Surely they can aggregate this across all customers though. If Twilio cops an unexpectedly high settlement for sending an SMS to +1234567890 in January, can they assume that a sepa…

Solving this is squarely Twilio's business! They know how much to bill the customer, so they must know how much it costs to send to a number.

Yes, but other queries (any aggregate queries that don't join the soft deleted table, any joins to other tables) will now return rows that would have been deleted under hard deleti…

I used to pack shelves for a supermarket and I believe at the time (~15 years ago) we had a two hour window in which perishables could be out of the fridge. Usually we'd wheel out …

It shouldn't be a question of cost of living. Companies pay significantly more (or less) in local markets because of supply and demand in those local markets. Historically those ma…

Thanks for replying, I'm very excited to hear it's in the works!
