While I agree with the sentiment espoused here, as a capitalist and business owner It's not a good look to praise other companies for sacking their workers.

Most likely he's trying to validate his own decision to remove politics from his workforce by praising and aligning himself with Google.

Well done! They sacked some SJWs! Good job boys!

LOL, given we couldn't even get an alternative vote referendum through, there is literally sub single digit percentage chances this happens in any of our lives: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_United_Kingdom_Alternativ...

As I'm sure you are aware Generative AI is absolutely the hot button VC area of interest right now. This should greatly ease your funding process. That said there will be a number of hygiene factors that your company must meet in order to maximise the number of VCs competing the deal and thus create favourable terms for yourself.

I've been raising pre-seed for a no-code platform for about a month now so very much in the trenches, happy to chat and share my learnings. Email me at paul (at) railsrocket.app

The main points of this article:

1. "no-code platforms aren’t extensible and scalable after reaching production, despite how critical they’ve become to how companies operate."

2. Make no-code platforms developer-extensible and evolvable, and no-code might become the defining movement of our generation.

Both solid points.

And that's our raison d'être at Railsrocket (https://railsrocket.app) we're a no-code app builder that creates real Rails apps which come with all the benefits of code.

The real question here: would they have been able to build the successful business they did without no code?

I'd argue possibly not. Nocode served its purpose here.

paulodeon commented on Is web dev a career worth pursuing anymore?    · Posted by u/mercurialsolo

Firstly there are good careers to be had now just building apps in no-code.

Secondly there will be a massive need for software development of any kind for a long time to come.

The pay and working conditions are some of the best out there as well, so yes, it's worth it!

This is why we are building RailsRocket (https://www.railsrocket.app/) You can get started with no-code but you have no vendor lockin because our apps are real Rails code apps.

You can extend them to your hearts content once you've got the validation or funding to hire developers

paulodeon commented on Ask HN: Best SaaS Boilerplate?    · Posted by u/siavosh
paulodeon · 4 years ago
We're working on a no-code SaaS app builder that creates real Rails apps at https://www.railsrocket.app. It's not a boilerplate, but it's even better as you can create a full app without writing code as well as continue to make changes to and manage the app.

We're not live with self-serve yet but I'd be happy to give a demo to anyone interested, just email me at paul (at) railsrocket.app

paulodeon commented on CSS's !important was added because of laws about font size for some text   twitter.com/stevenpembert... · Posted by u/mmastrac

This confirms my suspicion that CSS was designed in an ivory tower.

Despite being a "good developer" cut my teeth in C++ etc always had difficulties with CSS. The mental hurdles required to understand various concepts bore no relation to anything else I had encountered in CS.

I'm sure a notable percentage of my grey hairs are attributable directly to its incredible user-unfriendliness.
