If your idea generation isn’t outpacing your implementation speed, coding by hand probably makes more sense. At least it keeps your brain engaged.

But the right move is to find a way to increase the rate at which you generate ideas and offload the coding almost entirely to AI. Because if you’re not doing that, someone else is. They’ll eventually build something better than your app.

And when people stop choosing your product, if you can’t come up with the next idea and this is your only source of income... well, good luck.

I’d like to understand how this works.

This account was created only 13 days ago.

It has made only one submission, which is this post, and had only two comments before submitting it.

How does this happen?

I have an HN account that is 10 years old, but when I submit something, it often gets flagged almost immediately. So how exactly does HN’s flagging and ranking system work? Does account age or karma matter at all?

For reference:

bun tried hard to be written in zig.

eventually, they fell back to rust.

there's a lesson here: subset languages are fine for experiments and small projects, but they're rarely the right choice for production software.

...and C still can't be replaced. it's still the language of choice for mission-critical systems and low-level problem solving.

when will WASM integration become widely accepted? we need realtime canvas draw like oldschool desktop ui/ux.

Tegmark's 2017 piece on AGI and existential risk — still very relevant given recent developments in AI.
