Most people in societies built car-first/only (USA) truly rely on their cars. The situation is not the same in big parts of Europe and Asia. We can go 100 years forward and fund public infrastructure which is better for the environment, more safe and gives a much higher socio-economic value (except for the highway lobby).

> Front End Engineer roles pay less than general Software Development Engineers at pretty much every FAANG

Not in my experience for the last 5 years, looking at two job ads and comparing the salary range, they are usually the same. Which FAANG still does this?

This seems like a trifle not justifying the unusually harsh wording in the press release, combined with the hasty decision. Doesn't really add up.

If anything you'd probably drastically increase your salary if boomeranging. Inflation has been no joke these last years, and getting a new job usually outperforms a promotion by a large margin.

I've always done it like this as well. Initially I did it for the most obvious reason: it gave me the working software that I needed the fastest. Then later on, I always found it to be the best way to find natural abstractions as you go.

> Cross Platform UI is a myth

How can you say this when many of the worlds most used apps are written in React Native? Same with Electron and desktop apps. I find it hard to believe you can be more productive writing native code when you need two entirely different codebases, compared to a single one, no matter how good of an iOS and Android developer you are.

iTerm's session restoration. It just works, without manually saving or anything. Saved me tons of time from reboots or crashes.

It might even be >1 considering many postings in the Who's hiring have multiple comments (some 10+).

This is very cool, impressive work in 2 weeks! Each action seems to have some delay after it, is there any reason for that? Is it because you are streaming the OpenAI response and performing the actions as they come? If not, I imagine streaming the query response and executing each action as they emit would speed it up quite a bit?
