thanks for sharing, that's an interesting perspective actually. It's easy for us "pro devs" to kind of ignore platforms like Replit as "training wheels." I look at it and think "why would I use that, I have all my own stuff set up the way I like it locally". But us older guys (i'm not that old, 34, but still) can easily forget how valuable and exciting it is to have tools that make the publication / deploy easy. It's…
How long do those customers stay customers? Are their customers making money? Will they be able to build retention? I've got this question of every platform like this - Lovable, etc. Cursor and IDE tools and models cater to a smaller audience, but they're sticky, repeat customers, big spenders.
Excellent point. With that being said, I think there is market potential for replit, specifically in the middle ground between 'not knowing any code' and 'full on developer using an IDE/Cursor'.

#374well, it's not a high bar – these days anyone who says "I support Palestine Action" or "she was murdered by ICE" is called a terrorist sympathizer
"Palestine Action" is terrorism.

> these days anyone who says "I support Palestine Action" You mean the group that sneaked in and damaged a bunch of UK Military’s planes on a military base? Was this the action that put them into the terrorist category?
Not quite in the same league as IS, Al-Qaeda etc etc. Used to be a organisation had to murder and terrorise an entire population, or fly planes into city centres. Apparently our standards have dropped so low that spray painting a couple of planes and embarrassing the UK military now puts you on par with those other organisations.
Yes supporting the Islamists puts you in the same league as the Islamists.

> these days anyone who says "I support Palestine Action" They have a video of people from this group attacking police with sledgehammers. It is strange how much of this 'direction action' is harming Ukraine support and not Israel. If people wanted to support Palestine they can do it without attacking their own countries' military - which is not operating in Israel at all. > "she was murdered by ICE" They have a vide…
> They have a video of her being shot Why was her vehicle in gear, engine running?
Not that your comment is relevant, but why is there a narrative of obstruction when you can visibly see Renee Good wave another truck by moments before she was killed?

Alright, your good faith arguments have convinced me! To summarize: On one side, two sovereign nations setting press restrictions in areas they control. Standard stuff. On the other side, a genocidal state blockading a tiny strip of land for 20 years waging a campaign that has killed & maimed so many children that we have lost count unilaterally enforcing a total international media blackout. Also standard stuff. Sil…
You're just changing the topic with unrelated accusations. How nice or mean you think a military is irrelevant to the fact that they don't like random journalists tweeting photos of their military assets.
Next time, if you really want to have a serious discussion, cut the snark and try not to hide behind a throwaway. This is not Reddit.

#379Well, he still is a terrorist symphatizer, just rich now.

"Palestine Action" is terrorism.
Spray painting a bunch of airplanes is terrorism. Got it.
Oh, and don’t come crying when the same authoritarian laws put in place for Palestine Action are used to label your cause as terrorism to quash dissent.
