Apple certainly did.

> Psychiatry: Downs, Lowe, Bhatti, Moodie, Nutt

I knew a therapist named Dick McNutt. It's funny because each of these are relevant to the subject in different ways (symptom, diagnosis, life story).

> The ultimate buyers of their product was the system operators and the system owners

Right, which is why bringing upva meaningless stat like how many assets their web site downloads feels like satire.

> BTW just for giggles opened hub.docker.com with Network Tools opened: 368 requests, 9.62MB, Finish: 4.50s.

lol What on god's green earth does this have to do with commercializing Docker? Do you really think better lighthouse scores on hub.docker.com was what was holding them back?

That's for sure, especially for local dev.

I don't know that I agree, especially with LLMs as they are right now.

Maintainability isn't just for humans. An LLM working in an unmaintainable codebase has the same problems we do. It doesn't necessarily follow that if your code can pass your tests today then it will be able to pass the tests of tomorrow. I'm in healthcare. Regulations and payor rules change constantly. I don't know what tomorrow will bring, but I do know that the code I have an LLM generate tends to focus on the here and now (at the expense of the future). Sometimes that's okay, though. I don't know much about writing a compiler, so it could theoretically work.

This is by no means an anti-AI post (I use the hell out of these tools). But I can still see the cracks in them.

I'll add one: Not including the date and time it was written.

> They ran react conferences, teaching everyone who would listen about "1 way data flows" and pretending like they invented FP.

When you have to resort to outright lying about something it's usually a good sign your argument is flawed.

Because your comment is irrelevant to what's being talked about. You feeling the need to add your personal opinion about how much you hate React despite having no bearing on the conversation is what React Derangement Syndrome is.

lol Great insight. I really trust an opinion about something you admittedly don't use. Also is "aura" a technical term?
