Where does the feature go for long term ownership? That throws you build it you own it out the window. We are going to get more time for documentation and handover right, right? Engineers are famous for generating good documentation.

I'm still yet to be convinced React Server Components are anything but a disaster to the developer experience. Mixing backend and frontend without a clear boundary is terrible for any codebase beyond a handful of contributors.

Did delivering quality really get easier? I'm certainly not seeing it in the software I use. Delivering scale doesn't mean the mission was executed well.

You can hedge the position via options without having a taxable event on passive investment.

Because post 4.0 dropped the sycophancy?

I'm not seeing that at all. I'm seeing more markdown text being produced by AI but nobody wants to read it because the signal to noise is low. AI doesn't yet have a context window wide enough to have the judgement capability to filter the gold from the fluff for a moderate sized org.

Has anyone done the math on how much liquid methane and oxygen this would take to launch on Starship? Seems like an impossibility alone without digging into the numbers.

I'm for startups that don't defraud their customers with a proven track record of lying.

It's called fraud, the editor was a victim of fraud. At least he clued on late I guess..

A business engaging in unethical practices, not respecting its audience and standing by the quality of its content.

It is quite simple, they had the more recent cleansheet single aisle airframe design with enough ground clearance for modern high bypass engine designs. This has baked in a lot of inherent efficiencies including manufacturability meanwhile Boeing leadership refused to invest in a 737 replacement needed in the 2000s.

AI Agents can't be copied in a race to the bottom market to resell inference compute?

Uber is still the market leader. They were practically giving away taxi services for a long time.

America spoke and said they wanted it, what more is there to be said? If there was marching in the streets, it would be torn to shreds by the online grift sphere.

You can buy plush neck donuts which do the same thing, my cat lasted one day with a cone before I felt too bad and same day delivered one.
