Giving it access to JIRA doesn't make the code it produces more mergable, or reduce the cognitive load and technical debt a massive PR written by AI introduces into complex codebases.

Cloudflare Workers are awesome. You can do a lot on the $5 tier. Their CLI tool `wrangler` is quite excellent.

Code generation tools know their APIs and they have excellent docs, so getting up and running isn't very difficult.

The thing is, most programming is mundane. Rename files, move them, make sure imports are correct, make sure builds pass...AI can do all of these with very high accuracy (most of the time).

I used to respect Gruber, but as time has gone on, I think he's a kind of a dick. His "iOS superiority" takes are just generally very short-sided.

I've used an Aeron for close to 10 years, and it's the most comfortable and flexible chair for me. That being said, sitting down for 10 hours in any chair is not healthy.

I added a standing desk to my arsenal, and the routine of moving up and down every 40 minutes or so. Taking brisk 10-15 minute walks at least every 1.5-2 hours is crucial as well.

Core strength and flexibility have become so important to my fitness routine that if I go several days without exercising or stretching properly, I get pretty severe lower back pain.

It should be fine. The only thing I'd be weary about is initial page load times. Try and keep your "app" light, or if you're just using the HTML/CSS from Ionic then that isnt a concern at all.

It looks like a nice little library. Unfortunately, most of these "micro super fast i can build a todo app in 4 lines of code" things aren't enough anymore.

Most of us aren't building "Todo" apps. We're building bigger apps which require - or are more suitable - for a framework like Angular/Ember. That's just my 2 cents.

Looking at the client side code makes me wonder why people would ever use Backbone. It's so abstracted, mixes DOM manipulation into views. I should re-write it with Angular! :)

Great, another mosaic of shit I can't visually organize. I think it needs more stock photos as well.

Are we done with this kind of stuff already? Do people think that Facebook just haphazardly through together their current UI without doing extensive user testing?
