Supervised a project 2 week ago. Two programmers where hired to create an MVP. I have worked with both before. - Alex from Germany. 100% code. 19 years experience. - Hamid from Pakistan. Code + Copilot + GPT-4 + no-code. 4 years experience. What do you think happened?

I hope someone from our team gets to take the mic and tell it though. It is our story to tell. Lots of unbelievable architecture and tireless nights went into shipping what I believe to be the best react native experiences created.

You can ask many of our 100s of people who worked on the project, but there are only a handful of people I would trust to get this right. @t3dotgg is doing some actual investigation and not just clickbait, which is nice to see. I’ll let you know if he gets it right.

@inerati @mdhardeman There might be a disconnect here. Turning it into digital does not replace how it was captured. Even digital cameras have different characteristics from each other, different amount of information they can capture.

@TheSmokingTire @ZackKlapman I enabled full self driving in my 23 LRM3 for a month yesterday, and let me tell you what you already know: it is laughably bad. From all the reply guys I’ve seen saying it’s close “99%”, which we know is still not enough, I’d say it’s way off that.

@dhh I still use your products, you’re not “canceled” in my mind. I also agree the cultural shifting back to sane is good. The way you project all of these company changes though seems like you really just want to say the original issue wasn’t so bad. It was. We all make mistakes.

@ryanflorence Much simpler, but I have an express server that’s been running without issues for 5 years. Updates have been easy. That’s when I moved it off a static site generator, even though it is a perfect candidate for one. Tools just don’t keep up.

I know typescript gets a lot of love, and it should from an end user perspective, but a lot of the tooling feels glued together with shoestrings. The docs for using the typescript library don't exist and the language server is not fully implemented unless you use vscode lol.

Node botched the esm transition. We should just cut the chord with a breaking version and move forward with esm as default and start to deprecate commonjs.
