Also I wasn't excited about anything from that list, but I am very excited about AI.

I'm not sure the creators of tailwind share your definition of winning though. They recently had to let go of most staff since revenue has plummeted die to LLMs

Wait till we get to the point where we can ask AI to create a better AI.

I worked for a big Belgian technology company in the past. It was surprisingly lean in terms of management structure. Then Philips television, which had a big division not too far away, went bankrupt and a lot of those people got absorbed into our company. Within a couple of years the Philips people were able to transform the company to be very management/top heavy until nothing worked anymore.

On the other hand, we're the only high paid workers that provide so much work for free through open source. Sure, there's lawyers and doctors that do the occasional pro bono, nut nothing on the scale you find in software development.

It's different in that diskprices doesn't make money for the OP, while it only costed the OP 15$ in claude credits to slopvibe a competitor.

Yes AI solves this issue in the best way. It's really good at adding features that have already been built many times, but in a way that's customized to your needs and code style.

I don't think the ikea analogy works. Ikea is like a low code solution, which the article also mentions as being too limiting. If you can't design the closet you want in the ikea pax or platsa system, you're also out of luck and will need to get something completely custom built. Especially since the paper honeycomb Ikea furniture doesn't lend itself to modifications.

To me, what sucks the most about programming is dealing with ecosystem issues. You want to write a little tool for personal use, but NPM starts acting out. Then you need to do something in java, which you don't use very often, and you get a giant maven error stack trace which you now need to try to understand. All of this frustration is gone since I use AI and I can focus solely on the thing I'm trying to accomplish.

Made me remember again how disappointed I was (food-wise) that time I went backpacking in the Philippines after backpacking in Thailand. Most days we had to choose between dry rice with tasteless fried chicken, or tasteless fried chicken with dry rice.

There are certain Dutch dialects (e.g. west flemish) that would say gametje instead of gamepje. So you were not entirely wrong.

Easily find people to hire that know the framework and a huge ecosystem of pre-made components and utilities. No other UI framework comes close.

The company I work for is in the defense industry and by contract can't send any code outside their own datacenter. So cloud-rented H200's are a no-go and obviously commercial LLM's as well. so breaking even is not the goal here.

Let's say I have a server with an h200 gpu at home. What's the best open model for coding I can run on it today? And is it somewhat competitive with commercial models like sonnet 4.5?

This! I've recently was hired to fix a company that tried to build their own niche ERP over the last 10 years and they had totally drowned in the confluent kool-aid. There is very very few projects where event sourcing is the best solution.

But then you wouldn't need a replay. So the author really means mutate the past.

But you don't need to replay in that case. You just fire the correction event and the rest is taken care of.

For me it's been the opposite experience. I used to regularly get BSOD on windows, but ubuntu has been rock solid for me.

You don't need to watch BBC for that. Not a lot of tv shows, even child programs are dubbed on Dutch tv. So you get accustomed to it early on. Combined with the fact the languages are closely related means the Dutch usually have a reasonable grasp of English before it's being taught in school.

Yeah, but not sure if

That thing makes the world actively a worse place to live

Is really necessary to get the point across.

My theory: Browsers and js was evolving at such a fast rate that we needed a new frontend framework each year. React came with something good enough just as js and browser APIs started to slow down their massive changes and everybody was getting tired of changing framework all the time. Maybe some newer frameworks have some advantages, but not nearly enough to give up on what's now the standard ecosystem.

Qgis is great on the desktop. On the browser side I find openlayers to be a well thought out gis framework.

A lot of things are evolving though in the gis world. You can now, even in the browser, render huge datasets with geoparquet, geoarrow, wasm and webgl.

Dutch catoonist Dirkjan revealed the real answer already years ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/dirkjan/s/zszexnXLRu

But can you download a country up front? For offroad motorcycle trips I often get in to areas with no mobile connectivity

This isn't serverless. It's just using someone else's servers for the SDP signaling. And in a production app you'd likely also need turn servers and maybe SFU servers.

There are some true serverless approaches out there for the signaling, e.g. where both peers scan each other's QR code, but that obviously has very limited use.

It's not very scalable. Regular rules of webrtc apply, so once you go to a certain number of users, you would have to use an SFU approach.

Isn't it up to you to prove the model used AGPLv3 code, target then for them to prove they didn't?

Also if you have multiple microsoft 365 accounts, switching between those in the webapp seems to be impossible for years already. There's a switch account option, you can click it and sign in to another account, except you just stay logged in as the previous account.
