Remember, Uber used to be dirty cheap too in the beginning. Netflix used to be dirty cheap in the beginning. All main subscriptions follow the same lifecycle. Don't expect it to be cheap forever.

Or for long.

Is the JIT as good as an AI model for a specific Java program?

The article is not meant just for you.

Then, "All of Mathematics" is being used as clickbait.

That's classic HN showing off their privilege. But the golden era of tech is coming to an end. The industrialisation of software is about to begin. Many of the devs here will soon be getting a reality check

What they are actually saying is: "Because our OG product (leetcode style tests) is now obsolete, we can now jump on the leetcode hate trend and use that to sell our new product".

Imagine having a bunch of Claude agents doing time sensitive work and this happens and now a single human needs to pick up several 8k PRs authored by bots that can't talk to you now. Not sure how effective it would be to switch models using OpenRouter and the like given that, as the Earendil guys said, there is a lot of session detail that the provider doesn't share. The uptime is really going to cap their market penetration imo.

It's pointless as the problem isn't technical. It's a human problem as it requires human supervision. A cage isn't good if no human is actually checking it.

What is PMM?

To be honest, that's the fault of the websites themselves. Google is just an amplifier of a world web wide problem.

> "I am one person and I deal with code to get my product my built." From that POV, has it ever been better, assuming you can rise to the top of an ever more crowded market?

Building a product is easier now, same way making a photograph is easier now. Making a reliable and high income living out of it though, it looks increasingly uncertain.

In a world with abundant music and photography, just saying that you made your music using Reason/ProTools or you made your photograph with a Leica isn't enough. I believe the same will happen with software. Sales, product design, customer service and operational aspects like uptime will matter more than the software itself. Ironically, this is the kind of stuff the HN type highly dislikes.

>If you are product-driven, life is pretty good, and maybe has never been better

It has certainly been better for junior devs, mid devs, anyone looking for zirp era salary growth and supply demand ratios. For a senior code-adverse coaster looking forward to see his static salary get eaten by inflation, life has indeed never been better.

Anyone who has learned a language knows this anecdotally. The linguistic structures need to be marshalled by active cognition (editing and writing). Merely reading and watching is not enough.

So Searle was right.

Yes, but part of the reason ZuckOff is trending now is because it is also popular outside tech circles.
