Sort of, but if the software engineer had never had access to CS material and worked in a company where practices were based in CS so they naturally picked it up. These are villagers that build small homes without machinery and very basic tools, and haven’t learned from experts.

Yes life is cheap there, people get sick, injured and die for preventable reasons all the time. Life expectancy is 10 - 15 years less than in developed countries as a result. The west I think mixes up politics with their world view which makes them think everything is equal somehow, it’s then surprising when they see such foolishness that leads to such suffering first hand.

It’s Indonesia, engineer doesn’t really mean what we think in the west. It’s more that someone is passionate about something, not that they have a civil engineering degree and are building to some code. There are engineers like we’d think in Indonesia of course, but they’re unlikely to work on a western lady’s pet project and are going to be a lot more expensive.

I’ve been told by Indonesians their style is to dive head first into the water, then check for rocks. Yes safety is a big issue there and causes a huge amount of needless suffering.

They look nice, but I can’t help question how safe they really are, they’re more like giant baskets woven together by artists as opposed to calcuated engineering by engineers.

This was a pain for me too, despite having nearly 60 employees they were all new to the problem domain which left me and my co-founder still wearing way too many hats.

We need a new type of object that isn’t just a clever pattern that can be reused but understands how to adapt to the program it’s in, a smart object. I was hoping that’s what this company was doing with AI but I guess not.

This issue isn’t about economics of course, but what I don’t quite understand is why the right feels like it’s an injustice to change the playing field, like it’s cutting in line, or will put the laws of nature into chaos if someone gets more than their fair share for the work they did. I really don’t follow...

This may not be part of the spec per se but you can invalidate them by distributing a bloom filter with revoked tokens and validation times, services just need to poll the service at the granularity needed. This makes scaling still much simpler than one big session store.

What’s it like to program for it? Do you need to manage the distribution and utilization per node your self like a normal HPC farm? Or is it more like a single computer like a Cray?

I feel like services like Primephonic and Idago feel more like I’m offline in a classical music library, no flashy graphics and random pop songs with similar names don’t get returned in search results.

That makes sense, I think I still think of an object reaching space as it can then stay there, vs just a peekaboo. :)
