I like my wired headphones. Just like tube amps, they will never be outdated.

For all we know, some important clients might just be getting better service out of Anthropic's/OpenAI's "black boxes".

No, because it's not a hello-world Electron/React "app".

Emacs and Vim in the Age of Slop

Now just needs to have that pre-installed by Apple, and macOS somehow hidden during boot time.

Dark UI pattern: pretends that it is immediately usable only to redirect for sign-up.

I just do not want to deal with other people's AI-generated code.

AI Era, Agentic Era, LLM Era... Can we settle on Slop Decade?

I agree, it was about 10.29% earlier this year, now we are standing at least at 10.35% or something.

Yes, the faster they get used to the thought that loosing a billion is not a big deal, the better.

A thing for the current thing. Would have been a blockchain language 10 years ago.

> All the propaganda and extortionist language about how all countries will pay up to USA. Sounds a bit like Brexit.

Claude is incapable of producing a native application for itself, and is bad enough with web ones to justify Anthropic acquiring Bun.

It's a bad time to be an altruistic perfectionist, tell you what. Avoid hands-on tech/team lead positions like hell.
