    This might be financial prudence of sorts - doesn't something like 80% of their yearly monetary contributions come from Google, particularly for search partnerships? If they are co…

    Whether or not it is the government's job is to be regulating a specific thing is not as straightforward of an issue as it may seem.

    This is a really awesome project! If you have time/interest, you could try to build a simple http server now, that your browser could communicate with. Then you could try to implem…

    to_pandas has a dependency on pandas - it is not the biggest of deals, but worth keeping in mind.

    There are tropes on both sides of this conversation, but whatever. Quote the guidelines to your mom.

    Polars took a lot of ideas from Pandas and made them better - calling it "inferior in every way" is all sorts of disrespectful :P Unfortunately, there are a lot of third party libr…

    Are the worn, boring tropes false? Are they worth writing out again?

    The real question is - did you buy 10s of printers because you needed them for the business, or did you start the business to buy 10s of printers :P

    Calling PETG "utterly problem free" is quite a stretch lol. PLA is pretty objectively much easier to print than PETG, and perhaps than all the popular filament types out there, esp…

    In many ways HN is Reddit in denial at this point :) Comments and upvotes that are based mostly on vibes, with depth and discussion usually happening somewhere towards the middle o…

    I think both of us are ultimately wary of using the wrong tool for the job. I see your point, even though my experience has been somewhat the opposite. E.g. a pipeline that used to…

    I'd say the author's thoughts are valid for basic data processing. Outside of that, most of claims in this article, such as: "We're moving towards a simpler world where most tabula…

    The US is the world leader in suing in general, and yet it produces a lot more research than most other legally friendly places... how's that?

    Did I use the word "all" anywhere in my comment? There are good developers in Europe. What I am saying is that there would have been even more of them had the incentives not been s…

    It is, at this point, an easily verifiable fact that software engineering jobs in Europe are en masse poorly paid relative to the equivalent positions in the US, and the majority o…

    Well both sides could be right, no? I don't think it is necessarily uncharitable to note that lack of experience could cause developers to have strongly held, yet potentially inval…

    It's definitely anecdotal - and I agree about steering the robot. I find that analysis is harder than creation usually.

    Absolutely - one of my favorite uses of Aider is telling it to edit config files/small utility scripts for me. It has prompted me to write more comments and more descriptive variab…

    I have found that HN is, ironically, a horrible place to post experimental work on, with a few exceptions - e.g. things "written in Rust" etc. I think it's because the majority of …
