While I agree with what you are saying I'm surprised at how confidently you can say it to someone else who lives, or grew up in, a different environment than you. How do you know theres no mental illness? How do you know if they're trying to shield their kid, via entertainment, from the brutal reality that they might lose their house? Maybe one works nights and one works days?

Have an M1 air as well. Got a Pro m5. For daily coding tasks, and general web browsing the M1 air still holds. I'm going to pass it on to my kid. Reminds me of the honda we have that we'll also pass down.

> how little of a shit the business gives about code

Very true.

I used to do this until February of this year. Never looked back.

She'd kill it at the hotdog cart

I became an engineering manager when my daughter was 2. Way back in the old days before LLMs so I had to both code and manage. Completely burnt me out. I never fully got back into traditional tech career after I was laid off in '23.

I did start two businesses: One brick and mortar and one app. The brick and mortar has the biggest drain on family time since with the app I can grind at night and only miss out on sleep.

Gosh, I always assumed they were factual. Now I'm wondering the factualness of the old "15 people have this in their shopping cart" and "This is a popular item - limited stock left".

Click through rate is what drives the headline.

I've been fired (super early in my career I was a waiter) and laid off twice (Great recession and the covid overspend). If you think for even a second that an organization will put you before profits you have wasted that one second.

Yes, let us not forget The Trail of Tears which happened two hundred years ago.

Did you even read the article?

The exact opposite has happened for me. I used to review every pr, give read only access to db. Now with codex 5.6 sol high I let it rip. I do sometimes quickly scan the pr but mostly I've been regulated to a manual tester. Run the feature, check the DB, verify the UI. Build unit and E2E around everything. Mind you I am not working with production data yet.

My stack for this project is React Native and Supabase which I've got a good amount of experience using.

Which LLM are you using?

Right. I misspoke. Should have said not in our lifetime.

Yes agreed that is how the world turns but given the state of world I don't see it happening in any of our lifetimes.

> seems to be approaching its final stages

Sure, if you spend most your time on the internet in various news forums its doom and gloom. Its what sells.
