> Ecosystem Fit: React has the more full and stable ecosystem, you choose React People always say this, but in my experience especially with modern day tooling, all the frameworks basically have th…

A lot of the issues stem from the fact that Meta was backing React for so long (before it got purchased by Vercel), so it always had a ton of resources dedicated to it which helped win the mindshare…

I'm with you on that one, React is by far the least productive of the lot and every single method it exposes to you has so many damned footguns it's fucking incredible, no wonder most people…

That's not how chat control is set up to work though. The extremely problematic aspect here is the use of unspecified "AI monitoring systems" wholescale on every single message that p…

LLMs give idiots the power to effectively DDoS repos with useless slop PRs that they have to expend the time and effort to triage and ignore. Like the curl maintainers have said, the review burden of …

https://xkcd.com/810/ To me the point is that I want to see effort from a person asking me to review their PR. If it's obvious LLM generated bullshit, I outright ignore it. …

And what exactly is the alternative, in your mind? Ukraine gets conquered, and what, they all live happily ever after under the gracious and gentle hand of Putin and sing kumbaya for getting reintegra…

The most depressing and disgusting - though not surprising - part is that the politicans want to draw out exemptions for themselves with these laws, under supposed "professional secrecy" rul…

I'd support this if and only if we ran a trial where all public officials had all their messages and emails publicly readable by citizens. Surely the good people adamant on spying on their consti…

This is a problem when the public transport system isn't built with these exact issues in mind. You're right, it shouldn't take 2 hours for that commute, and all the other issues you …

I mean sure, if you take a surface-level look at things that is true, but the Dutch government has spent a lot of time, money and effort into actually thinking about their urban design and how they …

I mean, mine does lol. Of course this is the Netherlands so it'll be different to the states, but I literally live across the street from a train station, and it goes directly to the dead center …

> I would hazard that most in fact don't. Considering that, almost by definition, urban environments house a magnitude more people than rural areas, I'd wager a guess that indeed most peo…

I mean that's a depressing existence for the kids. I walked and biked around everywhere since I was 6 or 7 years old, I'm extremely thankful I didn't have to rely on my parents being fr…

That's only true because of car-centric design, not a rule of the universe. We can easily make public transport the better transport option if we wanted to. Yes, going to bumfuck nowhere will b…

People always say stuff like this, but plenty of European cities like Utrecht have shown that it's very much possible to turn the tide. A few years ago Utrecht replaced an entire highway and tu…

Yes, surely the hyper efficient free market is much better here, not like we have decades of proof of the perverse incentives there. We should instead ensure every mother is crippled with life-long …

Very anecdotally after recently having gone through the interview loop for the last 3 months (and finally landing something last week, yay), there was barely any talk about AI in any of my interview…

Sam "Harvest Your Biometric Data For A Scamcoin" Altman? Real trustworthy bloke, I'm sure. We should all buy some worldcoin by giving him our eye scans, in the name of privacy of course…

The calculator example everyone keeps bringing up is such a massive misunderstanding of what the issue with LLMs is. I did IGCSE/A-levels (International school following the British school system…

> and I have more ability to jump ship if don’t like my current job. This is a complete non-issue in presumably the entire EU (I can only speak for the Netherlands personally, but it's a safe …

Might just be 'cause I'm Serbian (we swear a lot, and the swearing tends to be very vulgar) and also grew up surrounded by Aussies, Kiwis, Brits and Irishmen, but to me "dickhead"…

I mean don't get me wrong, I'm not saying Vue is perfect , it has its share of annoyances that I hope get resolved, mostly around poor typescript experience with things like props and event…

> It's their code that's slow and horrible, react is snappy as hell when you use it properly. That's the problem though, it's hilariously easy to shoot yourself in the foot with…

I have a monstrosity of a Vue 3 project at work and I far prefer it to any "elegant" React codebase I've ever had the displeasure of working with. Boggles the mind that React still has …

"Poorer" in what aspect(s), exactly? Because not everything is about gross monetary amounts when it comes to a good life. Even the poorest of the European nations (never mind that EU !== Eur…

IMO the cascade is the exact problem with CSS. It worked fine when all it was dealing with was super simple documents with a few rules here and there, as soon as we started making applications the cas…

Does the UK really not have labor laws as strong as most countries in the EU? It's not like you can't fire people in EU, you just have to have an actual legitimate reason to do so, exactly…

There's a reason I included that "even", because indeed NL is not cheap. However if you're not in SV or NYC, you're also not making the ludicrous half-a-million figures that p…
