Just finished a rewatch of The Wire, which I think captures this transitional period well.

> The idea that web components slot and template give you close to the same flexibility in functionality that a component library in a programming language does is absurd.

The web component API is programmatic, in JS just like all the rest of the platform.

This is directly addressed in the article.

hey thanks for mentioning that skill, I hadn't heard of it before but I just ran it on a non trivial codebase I've been planning to refactor and it did a great job.

I don't use a lot of "skills" so if there are others you've started using frequently I'd be curious to learn about them.

> I kind of think some other language will come along, take the borrow checker, take all the type conveniences that Rust stole from OCaml that make Rust so nice, glue it all to a Python/Go/dotnet style fat stdlib, complete with an optional GC for all the things that don't actually need bare metal performance (just stick an arena in stdlib), and Rust will feel like a clunker by comparison.

That'd be a dream to me.

> From the perspective of high level application development, I can't see a technical use case for a language other than Rust.

Bit of a red flag if you really can't.

To turn bad short writing into good long writing you must necessarily change the content of the writing, not just the shape.

I'm looking in the same space: have you found anything else you're considering beyond OpenViking?

There are many more labs than that, and humans aren't designing unique scraping processes per domain.

No it applies at whatever time you choose - it's the most flexible option for a person whose wealth fluctuates frequently around a low baseline.

Because cash and debit allow you to pick the time in the month when you happen to have the ability to pay for something.

Frankly these questions astound me, do y'all really know no low income folks?

This presupposes the ability to get a credit card and the confidence of sufficient funds when that auto payment hits.

The incentives for developing juniors have become misaligned as the expected stay in a company dwindled from decades to years to maybe year.

It would make sense to develop juniors if most of their comp was a four year vest but that doesn't happen until later. And in your first year or two you're usually a net negative... This is even more true with AI.
