I'm curious about what you mean here. It sounds like you're saying that applications shouldn't concern themselves with consistency. Can you elaborate?

Love this!

Call me lame, but are there any open-source projects that accomplish this type of gui in typescript? I have an idea but it uses something written in JavaScript.

I created a sub 9 years ago that now has a few million subscribers (so now requires a bit more effort to mod). I _don’t_ get paid, though I certainty wouldn’t turn it down. I started the sub because I like the content that is posted and I want to continue seeing more of it. Why continue to mod? Because I like to be involved and keep this little square of the internet free of toxic and often hateful spam/content.

> It seems threatening to take it away is making them compromise on their values quite effectively.

What exactly are you referring to here? I see this narrative in a lot of places and I’m confused about what “values” mods supposedly collectively have? So much discussion online paints moderators as some sort of a connected cabal with alternative motives instead of unrelated nerds who enjoy niche content.

I was hoping this was about my coworkers tuning on our cloudwatch alarms until pagerduty stops calling

That’s not really a fair comparison here — A more fitting metaphor would be whether or not you could intervene on assembly code not knowing assembly.

This is just what was just called “speaking tech” back in the early 2000. I see a lot of discussion online about “prompt engineers” or “ai whispers” as you put, but I think the reality is that these tools are just another UI paradigm that our current generation will (on the whole) struggle with and the next generation will find intuitive.

An IDE that provides a linear view of your code base. Follow code paths as though they were all inline, e.g. expand views of function/method internals inside the calling function, etc. No more changing files/modules.

Before you wax poetic about this period, please read more on the complete disregard for the families and communities impacted by the large construction projects from that time. Replies comparing the US today to China would also benefit from the same. Public works has a lot of issues with cost and inefficiencies, but I think we should all be happy that eminent domain is not wielded with the same disregard for human life as it once was.

100%, this is exactly where my head is at too.

I used to have a boss who’d ask me to rate my company satisfaction with the company 1-10 at every 1:1. This always struck me as one of the laziest/misguided management moves I’ve encountered, and I’m sure he felt it was both accurate and clever. If you manage people, and don’t understand that basic power dynamics will always trump encouragements for “openness”, you are naive at best and willfully blind at worst.

Ok, it’s clear where you stand. I’m not here to be negative, only to share with folks interested in the product that they are significantly back logged. Hopefully everyone knows what the means in a Kickstarter context. Their marketing is great, the jury is still out on their actual product.

Let me put it this way, I was backer #816. They currently have 37,987 backers. They raised $4,882,784 during a global pandemic. I think I’m not off base when I said “If you can get one.”
