It is huge scale, but on the other hand, almost entire GitHub although huge, is made of isolated islands of data (repositories). This is relatively easy to scale. Extreme example would be dedicated server for each repo and its Actions with their own isolated state.

AI actually can take away desire to code. If what you do becomes cheap for the masses, you lose your motivation bit by bit. Also you were surrounded by art, now you are surrounded by crap. It does not kill your passion fully but drains you slowly.

Actually, staticly typed languages are easier for both humans and machines; however dynamically typed languages are harder for humans and probably neutral for LLMs. LLM should be able to infer usage (hence "typing") because it can put the entire codebase in its context, while humans cannot.

For me it's not stable. After they change their renderer from one to another it freezes for me from time to time. But on the other hand I'm running Nvidia on Wayland so I feel no hate towards Zed owners - and restart is super quick ;)

Fun game. Can somebody run an agent against those questions to see how it performs? :)

Wow, stupid idea is hard to legislate. Nobody could predict that.

It reminds me of clients wanting some stupid feature from app developers which does not fit into anything, and makes no business sense, and therefore creates only problems.

you forget about fake sleeping being loaded with fake dopamine hits before sleep AND broken sleep schedules; and eating fake ultraprocessed food instead of wholefoods.

That's weird as I do the opposite: think by myself, then look for help if I don't know.

I want to read the rest of the migration story

Oh, that must be fun to be hired by the client directly... I wish each my programming job was not an ivory tower :(

> much longer than the lifespan of websites

But browsers (and browser technologies) have documented track of being fully backward compatible up to the beginnings of WWW, and it's not going to change.

Which actually is much much better than any other environment you can imagine - unless of course you use (and want to use) that one frozen in time 25 year old PC. And pray nothing breaks (y2k bugs and whatnot).

If the software is open source (and works offline) you can have it functional in 10 or 20 more years. And it will be "locally-installed software you own" you want.

But you have to get the software somehow? Once you get it, it works offline. The same here I guess: once you download the source code/binaries into browser's cache (that can store things indefinitely) it's offline.
