I know that reviews are subjective, but I still want to know if the Bible being ranked 10th is too high or too low.

Way to high. People don't read it or don't understand it apparently.

I like main as a branch default.

It's shorter, sounds nicer.

Wow that's even more ignorant. Not bad not bad

But you know at the end of the day we do life on the same planet.

If your spending habit affects me, I do care.

I care about CO2 / weather changes, toxin in earth and water, Nazis, genocide etc.

You do understand that there are plenty of reasons that you do affect others?!

Not everyone Posts critisism at Starbucks.

And yes people care. They can't always care to different reasons but doing something is better than nothing.

But good for you being condescending and making it clear that you don't do anything.

I'm surprised that there are new language specific hosting services like this cropping up. It just seems like the wrong level of abstraction, particularly for frameworks like this. Infrastructure makes sense at a few levels of abstraction...

- Servers you can run what you like on – VMs, bare metal, etc.

- Containers that you can put what you like in, but which run in some system you don't control – Kubernetes, ECS, even things like Heroku are here now.

- Language specific micro-plugins, where a small piece of code is hosted in a common server process – AWS Lambda, Cloudflare workers, all the FaaS stuff. These are sometimes language specific, but I expect them to align on WASM.

Being PHP and Laravel specific doesn't really fit any of these, it's a model that sort of existed around the early Heroku days, but seemed to lose out to first Heroku and its generic buildpack system, and then eventually to containers.

What happens when a team wants to add a little Node process for some frontend thing? Do they need to move their entire hosting? Who is the target audience of a provider like this, and perhaps more importantly, can they stay with a provider like this for very long?

You do understand that there are a lot of smaller ecosystems out there right?

For people in the laravel ecosystem that might be a great thing.

Just because someone already did it or did it one way doesn't mean no one else can or should do it

I'm creating an infinite canvas that has all your organization's code and documentation on it. If you zoom in, you can see the code, if you zoom out you see the big picture. By giving everything a place on the map, it becomes easier to figure out your way through the landscape and understand the systems. Different modes can you show you different things: code age, authorship (bus-factor, is the person still with the company etc), languages used, security issues. There's time-travel, think Gource for all software in your company, and maybe the most fun: a GeoGuessr for code. Select the repos for your team (or if you feel confident, of the entire org), you get a snippet and have to guess where it is. The plan is for LLMs + tree-sitter to analyze all the code and show relations to other systems, databases etc.

I had the idea 2 years ago, but starting building in earnest 2 months ago. Spending all my time on it now, minus 3 or 4 days per week of earning money. Currently looking for a GTM/sales-oriented cofounder in NL.

I'm thinking about this for ages too.

I like the rough idea of C4 but I'm clueless why mural and co doesn't do a better job for infinity boards with boards in boards.

Several different tracks, having a hard time focusing on one.

- A little free library, but for e-books. Having a bit of trouble with this one because I think that the move to e-books inherently removes much of the magic of a little free library of physical books. Plus there's the whole "letting users upload things is hard" thing.

- E-ink picture frame. It's been done before and it's mainly just a use for an old rpi laying around.

- Looking to start a tech meetup in my small locale. It's hard to meet tech people in my area, let alone people who are willing to present.

- TUIs to aid me in my day job. Claude makes whipping up proofs of concept super easy and quick, so this one is the most fun to me right now.

Dlooooloo commented on Why I think AI take-off is relatively slow   marginalrevolution.com/ma... · Posted by u/amrrs

When people think AI is going to lead to rapid automation I genuinely don't understand what mental model of the economy they must have.

I'm trying to pivot out of data which IMO is a scam industry and thought I'd consider automating white-collar work. After all, there's a huge amount of excel-monkey work that can be trivially automated with scripts and I've done stuff like that before. But then I realise there's not even a job title for this sort of work, nor are there any firms in my country doing stuff like this. There's simply no demand whatsoever for process automation (I'm expressly not talking about automation engineers in manufacturing etc.)

It's not hard to see why. No-one's going to automate themselves out of a job, nor are managers going to automate all the people they manage out of a job because then they're also redundant. Often labour-saving innovations are brought-in by upstarts but business dynamism is low so there's not a lot of that happening. I can almost guarantee that a bank circa 2050 will look a lot like a bank now, short of some runaway superintelligence completely reconfiguring society.

It's potentially also a skill issue. Owner /person doesn't know how to do something and hires.

Now with chatgpt they might be able to do it themselves.

Also when big corps sell you an ai hr Person and the only thing needed is a Microsoft account you might buy this.

They continue to either make it generally good or add continuous new specific skills to it. I think the effort to teach one 'ai' something is very soon a lot cheaper than teaching someone new constantly.
