I am right there with you. We might lack the language to describe this emotional state; its like the opposite of FAFO? There's also this nuance that they were acquired by meta so y…

The moment all code is interacted with through agents I cease to care about code quality. The only thing that matters is the quality of the product, cost of maintenance etc. exactl…

Early adopters will early adopt. They will toil,feedback, improve, repeat. Tools will over optimize then dramatically shift based on learnings. This chaps will continue until somet…

Yeah this is almost common at this point, specifically with carbon nano structures. The reason why is it is very expensive to manufacture specific structures but cheap and easy to …
