When I was running a small dev agency with a sprinkling of web projects, Angular was useful because it every project looked more or less the same. The rigidity (and verbosity) it imposed was an advantage in this setting, as it helped with the cognitive load when switching between projects. Apart from that, I wasn’t a fan either.

No mention of any of Yen’s behavior towards employees and “not hiring engineers” in the future. So I guess that makes it both true, and a half-hearted apology. Pretty disappointing.

TIL about /active. Interesting, thank you.

@dang: care to explain what this is about?

Why has this suddenly disappeared from the front page? It’s not flagged.

Must have interfered with SV reality distortion field.

WTH…? I use iTerm2 and wasn’t aware of this. What an incredibly bad call.

I don’t have a deep understanding of this topic, but wouldn’t you also need a good amount of relevant data to train on?

“tokens spent” is just not as impressive as “hours of blood, sweat and tears”

It’s the same for me, but I really can’t put my finger on why I feel that way.

Maybe you subconciously expect that it’s vibe-coded fart that will be unmaintained in six months as the person who built it loses interest?

Or maybe it’s the sheer volume of stuff that is being built now?

Or maybe I’m just depressed by it all. Don’t know. Wonder what you think about it.

I had it open, then decided to read it later because my kid needed attention. Ten minutes later I was looking for it on the frontpage and couldn’t find it anymore. I spend lots of time (too much) on HN and it definitely felt like some coordinated effort, very non-organic.

Oh no, I missed that. What a shame. :-(

Thanks for reminding me to rewatch Event Horizon for the N-th time.
