Oh dear.

The site has .eu domain. Every freaking site in the world has to annoy 8bn people to accept or reject cookies because EU passed a a law that can cost you a lot of money if you ignore that.

Someone needs to take things easy Karen...

I may be skeptical, so take this with a grain of salt. The transformation happened when someone decided to stop being UI designer, to become UX designer. That wasn't enough, so they came up with XD - experience design. At every step of the way, they introduced more lofty goals for the design to justify the increased importance of themselves.

My pet peeve is endless Confluence Wiki pages that are clearly written by Claude (or whatever agent they like to use). I get bombarded with these, like it means something. Usually I say: "let me summarize this with my agent", but people rarely get the point.

Interesting - if I or anyone else said they would be building a startup to do this, we would have a hard job to selling it to VCs.

Why not then doing it as a fork - using existing code and language to re-architect? What value does Rust bring here? You are using LLMs to rewrite, so the language is pretty much irrelevant from developers perspective.

You can say "we want it in Rust" and leave it there - I'd be fine with it. Wouldn't use it though.

kind of reminds me of this: I want to build a teleport. it should look like old time phone booth, have a screen with a world map on it where I can chose the destination, and a big button with letters TELEPORT on it. when the button is pressed user is instantly transported to the desired destination.

the teleport mechanism is built in into the base of the booth, so it does not affect overall design.

This is how I do it: Claude, how do I deal with memory leaks?

This has been the problem with every new model coming out in my experience. You can almost predict that they are testing new model by how dumb current one becomes suddenly

absolutely does! for a new language that no one has heard of, it is essential that examples make at least a parallel with other languages. providing examples for mundane things is very useful to build the understanding with the reader who hasn't been writing a paper on OM language.

apparently fold example is very helpful to some.
