This is a site for startups. They have no business running k8s, in fact, many of the lessons learned get passed on from graybeards to the younger generation along those lines. Perhaps I'm wrong! I'd love to talk shop somewhere.

May I ask, what is this obsession with targeting the browser? I've also noticed a hatred of k8s here, and while I truly understand it, I'd take the complication of managing infrastructure over frontend fads any day.

Users are far more likely to ask it about shadcn, or material, than about node/deno/bun. So, what is this about?

An AI company scoops up frontend tech. Do you really think it was because of s3?

Yeah why are you not out on a boat somewhere enjoying this moment? Go have fun please.

Striking a deal with a competitor (AZURE) does though.

My first thought went to how openai used Rust to build their CLI tool and Anthropic's CEO bought influence over Zig as a reaction.

This marketing effort is aimed at shareholders, not customers or employees. The stock has been tanking hard and she's just replicating the strategy of staying in AI related news hoping for a bump. Hopefully it works, for the employees anyway, so they can dump their own shares.

Have you considered just asking claude? I'd wager you'd get up and running in <10 minutes.

The hottest discussion on the first page is how big of a meanie Andrew Kelley is. Yeah the sites a vibe for sure.

I agree, however, I've seen first hand how the AI fever and mandate from the top has finally busted enough information silos that previously 'have some DBA write a bunch of reports that answer specific business questions' just wasn't feasible in the first place, and now is.

I think what I'll miss from the SO approach to research is encountering that wall of text someone bothered to post giving a deep explanation of the problem space and potential solutions. Sometimes I just needed the fast answer to some configuration problem, but it was always worth the extra 20-30 minutes to read through and really understand those high effort contributions.

Reminds me of the military. Senior leaders often have no real idea of what is happening on the ground because the information funneled upward doesn't fit into painting a rosy report. The middle officer ranks don't want to know the truth because it impacts their careers. How can executives even hope to lead their organizations this way?

Well, what are those projects? I don't speak for anyone else, but I'm generally fatigued by the endless parade of science fair projects at this point, and operate under the assumption that if an approach is good enough, openai/anthropic/google will fold useful ideas under their tools/products.
