Herodotus, 'father of history' and 'father of lies'? Fortunately the fossil record does indeed back up the claim of lions in the region!

What is the point this comment is trying to make? We can say this for every SaaS company on the planet.

Definitely interesting. My guess it has to do with the level of hand-holding the users are doing. Ie. Full on vibing vs pair programming.

People should stop using these simplified high level programming languages with low cognitive weight, like Go. I only write assembly. ;)

'Engineer' is also a legally protected title in Canada, so 'developer' is the common term.

Employees should not be able to sell their stock if their company decides to do layoffs? What is the rationale?

Agree. I use both windows and mac daily, and I don't think Mac is much better in terms of annoyances and bugs.

Failing with GCP? GCP has had accelerating growth the past few years, larger than the other two, and widening profit. I've used all three major clouds and overall I would choose GCP, particularly these days for their data/AI stack

I think a simpler explanation the some of the others is.. why care? Phones these days, even cheaper ones, have oodles of GB available. They're not losing customers from the size. And I don't think making it smaller is going to draw in new gmail/workspace customers. So why spend time on it when there are tons of new features or active bugs that could be fixed instead?

learnxinyminutes.com is a good resource that tries to cover the key syntax/paradigms for each language, I find it a helpful starting point to skim.

I've been in ride shares where the driver has crossed a curb road divider or squeezed through tiny gaps in front of trucks. Going too slow sounds like a better 'bad' experience to me.
