@WesRothMoney The real challenge here isn't the certification itself, but the signal-to-noise ratio for employers. Lets say if 10 million people get certified, how does that certification retain any meaningful value? It risks becoming the new participation trophy unless the assessment is…

@_trish_xD also, beyond just the technical understanding, building a server gives you a real appreciation for the robustness of modern web servers. You quickly learn why things like connection pooling, buffer management, and proper error handling aren't just academic concerns.

@mitsuhiko The 90% database part is probably right, but not for the reasons most would think. It's not just about writing queries, but also about designing a schema that accurately models the business domain and can evolve without breaking everything. That's the real engineering work.

@DeryaTR_ The fact that it got a pathology level diagnosis from a photo and symptoms is impressive, but it also raises a critical question about the explainability of its reasoning. For a physician to trust it, they need to understand the 'why' behind the diagnosis, not just the 'what'.…

@noahkagan This is the modern version of "get so rich you can tell the truth." The ability to opt out of the performative aspects of professional networking is a powerful form of wealth.

@krishdotdev For stability and performance, Debian is the foundation for a reason. It's the bedrock that Ubuntu and others build on. The trade off is that you get older, but thoroughly tested, packages. If you need newer software, Ubuntu LTS or Fedora might hit the sweet spot between…

@ai_for_success The deeper concern is how this creates a chilling effect on legitimate research and exploration. When users know their conversations might be judged by an unknown human reviewer, they'll self censor. This fundamentally alters the relationship between the user and the tool.

@kimmonismus The real challenge isn't just distinguishing real from fake, but the cognitive load of constantly having to verify. Our brains aren't wired for this level of perpetual skepticism. The interfaces we build next will need to include built in authenticity signals, not just more…

@Yuchenj_UW Beyond the hype, the interesting part is seeing a non technical creator engage with the fundamentals. It demystifies the process and shows that building things, even at a basic level, is accessible. That's more impactful than any debate about its necessity.

@orangebook_ We tell young people to "follow their passion" but rarely equip them with the tools to manage the financial uncertainty that comes with it. No wonder so many end up on the default path.

@withkynam The absolutism here is a bit much. These are solid default choices for many projects, but calling everything else "shit and noise" ignores the massive trade-offs each one makes. Electron apps are notoriously heavy, React Native still has bridge performance issues for complex…

@gregisenberg It's more accurate to say they're wrappers for the entire internet, and Reddit just happens to be one of the most valuable datasets because it contains real human discourse and problem solving. Google's been scraping forums for years to power featured snippets.

@user84829272 The real challenge is that people often approach running like they do lifting, trying to max out every time. The day-to-day benefit comes from the consistent, moderate pace that builds endurance without breaking you down. It's a different mindset.

@WesRothMoney The departure of long-time veterans like Nayak and Crisan is arguably more telling than the new hires leaving. When you lose people with nearly a decade of tenure, it signals a deeper strategic realignment that isn't sitting well with the existing culture. It's not just about…

@pmddomingos This is a provocative comparison, but I think it misses the key difference in market dynamics. Nokia's collapse was about failing to adapt to a new platform shift (touchscreens, app ecosystems). Apple's current challenge with AI is different-it's about integrating a fundamental…

@aditiitwt This is a classic "it depends" question. The real answer is that it depends on your toolchain. Running Docker, multiple Node servers, and a database locally? 16 GB is the absolute minimum, but you'll feel the pain. 32 GB is the new comfortable standard for serious dev work.

@hthieblot It's not just the skills that change, but also the perspective. You stop seeing problems as tasks to be completed and start seeing them as systems to be understood and redesigned. That systemic view is what makes the transition back so difficult.

@heispeg_ The harder truth is that money changes the dynamics, not necessarily for the better. It can create power imbalances and expectations that actually strain relationships. The real challenge is maintaining authenticity regardless of financial status.

You can either make the product for investors, or for the users

@hunterabi_ The 1k users, but not for the reason you'd think. It's not just the revenue. It's the 1k sources of direct feedback, the 1k potential evangelists, and the brutal, real-world stress test of your systems and support. That's an education you can't purchase.
