React and the ecosystem. I wanted to be clear that I don't "hate" the React team. They are smart people and are trying to do a great job. The passion is definitely there. But they should IMHO focus on different things.

React Is Rainbow Colored

LLMs do NOT have intelligence. Achieving AGI would mean solving self-driving cars, replacing programmers, scientist, etc. All things LLMs are currently unable to do in a way that replaces humans.

There's a huge gap between what Gemini 3 can do and what AGI promises to do. It's not just a minor "technical definition".

You are so brainwashed by app stores' talking points that you don't realize you are describing computers.

Just let users install whatever they want. Maybe add a verification process (a-la app verification for Mac) if users want to be restricted to verified apps. Show a "this is from an unverified developer" messages if the app comes from an unverified developer (is not signed).

There's no need to draw lines. Leave that to painters and architects.

> At a guess, people will use something with: - Strong tooling and libraries - An accessible type system - Deterministic memory behaviour - By-default strict evaluation - Commercial backing Every mainstream functional language is lacking in at least one of these areas.

This user casually predicted Rust.

> The commonly held belief that programming is inherently hard lacks sufficient evidence

Is the fact that every software ever made is full of bugs not enough?

I've been using Telegram for something like 5 years now. I'm curious, what's the problem with it?

Not with that attitude.
