Interesting that I could _immediately_ tell the model visualization was built with Claude

I enjoyed this. But reading the claim that the iPhone was bad compared to other phones of the day makes me question it all. That's so incredibly backwards. It _was_ a much better internet in your pocket. If you couldn't see that, it says something about you, not phones.

I think a lot of this type of problem goes away with immutable data and being more careful with side effects (for example, firing them all at once at the end rather than dispersed through the calculation)

You think the only reason vim & emacs aren't used as much as iOS/Android/Windows (or equivalent defaults on those platforms) is familiarity?

I think there have been and will continue to be UX improvements to programmer tools. GitHub is one example.

You think tools that stagnate will continue to see the same levels of adoption in new generations of programmers? It's an empirical question, I guess I just don't see it, and I say that as someone who loves vim & emacs.

I use and love emacs, but pointing to it as an example of how to evolve UX over time is indicative of your perspective. iOS/Windows/Android are used by the majority of people on the planet, emacs is not.

Which UX do you think young people today and in the future will most understand? iOS/Android or emacs? Why is that?

Isn't it because there's a ton of new supply of labor from around the world?

Maybe the system was different back then, but now Avoid will only avoid the player as a teammate, they can still be on the enemy team. So if someone is too good, there's no incentive to avoid them.

Mike Duncan and Revolutions is great, endorse!

His previous podcast, The History of Rome, is also great.

I know -- I meant more about making sure they don't make public places unsafe/unclean.

Yeah, when I first saw the flow, I was shocked...

I think we should do everything we can to give/push them into treatment, but at the very least they don't get to make streets unsafe and unclean for others, they have to go elsewhere
