I am looking for a no-tech web browser...

Wow! Reading this after watching PHM I almost cried...again.

Now, this is what impressed me the most: ""... and wrote software flexible enough to be updated from Earth decades after launch.."

OTA patches where invented in the 70's :)

Do programmers actually write in wasm or automatic tools port/compile other languages to wasm?

My words:

This feels like don't buy at Walmart, support the local small shop. We passed the no return sign miles ago.

Gemini's:

This is like advocating for artisanal blacksmithing in the age of industrial steel. It sounds great in theory, but we passed the point of no return miles back.

Yeah, we can tell the difference :)

Seems the robotaxi saved a life.

For us that started doing web apps as soon as the web was invented, JQ was a miracle.

Thanks guys!

Compliance. If you wanna sell your SAAS to big corpo, their compliance teams will feel you know what you're doing if they read AWS or Cloudflare on your architecture, even if you do not quite know what you're doing.

So they read the chats?

Not in my experience. I still spend much of the time thinking before prompting. Then I spend time reviewing the AI written code before using it. Does not feel like a trap. It mostly feels like having a super experienced pair programmer. I may be using it differently than others since I do not have it integrated to my IDE. I use it like I used google + stackoverflow before it.

Luck favors the bold. One acts boldly because one feels lucky.

I've said this before: for most web apps, React is like hiring an 18-wheeler to deliver a pizza. Years ago, the same was true for Wordpress.

An engineer designs solutions. That includes selecting the right tools.

I'd bet she was probably scrolling through the endless stream of fear (war, poverty, crime), guilt (diets, fitness, beauty), and shallowness (jokes, celebrities). In those moments with loved ones, I choose to engage, explain what's happening, and make them aware of how it's making them feel. Then I guide them toward alternatives. We play, we cook, we read, we plant, we dance.

It isn't entirely our fault. It's deliberately made and constantly adjusted to be addictive, for the sole purpose of selling ads, swaying votes, counting more MAUs, and increasing valuations.

Still, knowing something is bad for you isn't enough to make you stop, right? Yet, once you are out, you can choose to help others, especially the ones you care about.

Let them be rich. Stoicism would recommend you not try to control what isn't in your hands to control; just accept it. Can you imagine that centuries ago, the same rules of class, power, and money drove society, and some very smart philosophers came to the right conclusions? Let it be. Meanwhile, those hands, freed from frustration and fear, can build the extraordinary.
