> Staff Eng .... has much more job mobility

Not really.

Above Staff and Staff+ companies are usually looking for expertise in domain, in addition to cross org leadership. Unless you want to get hired with Sr title.

Management is different though, you have highly transferrable skillset, managing people, up and down.

Can you share more about data availability part?

What kind of data do you need which is missing now, isn't simulations enough? curious to learn more about bottlenecks in general

without language level support, it makes code look like a mess.

Imagine, 3 level nesting calls where each calls another 3 methods, we are talking about 28 functions each with couple of variables, of course you can still clean them up, but imagine how clean code will look if you don't have to.

Just like garbage collection, you can free up memory yourself, but someone forgot something and we have either memory leak or security issues.

it's only in theory, in practice not going to happen.

In most of the cases, authorization servers are called from each microservice.

evented systems loopback and it's difficult to avoid it, e.g.: order created -> charge -> charge failed -> order cancelled

are we doomed yet?

Seems not yet with 5.2

Don't underestimate AWS.

AWS can make it seamless, so you can run open source models on their hardware.

See their ARM based instances, you rarely notice you are running on ARM, when using Lambda, k8s, fargate and others

this assumes generated code is always correct and does exactly what's needed.

if it lasts even 1 year with on avg 1 min audio, I think it's nice disposable device to have.

Some ideas if you have an app which can be integrated to other services:

* I feel sick today, notify my manager about it, probably I will stay home

* schedule a task to pickup a trash

* something to remember, colleague X told me he is using service A for data clean up

I think this benchmark could be slightly misleading to assess coding model. But still very good result.

Yes, SVG is code, but not in a sense of executable with verifiable inputs and outputs.

its not only about SPA vs non-SPA.

For example, there is a nice component library, shadcn, of course you can somehow embed it into the project, but to use it productively, you must have a bundler, which is outside of Django ecosystem.

Also, if you take a look at AI generated content, a lot of them are optimized for outputting JS for frontend, try embedding it in Django project, its non-trivial

Django is awesome, but I wish there was an easy way to use modern web frameworks with it.

A lot of times it's either through Nextjs/Nuxtjs + Django as an API or complex bundling process which requires a file where you register bundle versions/manifests then another build process which embeds them into template

both are so complex

I can give you many reasons, but I am afraid my comment will be flagged.

Some of them:

* Israel is losing support across the world, because now it can't control the narrative, before it was able, people thought journalism exist, now we see it doesn't, and we are witnessing 2 different narratives in the media vs social networks

* EU and US politicians took money from relevant lobby entities (or as we should call it: bribe)

but isn't it literally connected to foreign entities, with high probability to Israel-Palestine conflict, no?

Why is it my earlier comment with so many upvotes got [flagged] ?

Is it because I mentioned the entity name?

Here is the comment:

"It’s ironic how the West has long championed democracy, demanded freedom of speech, and called for human rights from everyone. Only to suddenly adopt authoritarian, anti-free speech, anti-human rights, and anti-protest stances the moment free speech began to critique Israel.

It’s truly shameful to see such developments."
