<p>This was my biggest frustration with LLM based coding but Agent Skills have largely solved it.<p>While there’s a lot of room to improve them it’s a huge game changer for effectively coding harnesses.</p>

<p>This is actually a big advantage of using AI.<p>Using simple mature tech stacks following best practices makes your product much better.<p>Developers have a strong desire to reinvent the wheel and it wastes so much time.<p>Innovative should only be attempted in your product domain if you are trying to make a successful company.</p>

<p>Was this not at-will employment?<p>While getting it in writing is good, it doesn't actually protect you. Vast majority of people are working at-will. Which means either party can change the terms of employment whenever. And if the other party disagrees then employment is terminated.<p>In this case meaning, if your contract says remote then they can change it to not remote at any time. That said, any company that will pull shenanigans like that you don't want to be working for anyhow as they don't respect you and that will impact you across all aspects of your work.</p>

<p>I would strongly argue that coordinated censorship of media should be illegal.<p>It's not today. But is it in society's interest that a small group of elites gets to decide what we can discuss on our primary discussion platforms?</p>

<p>Fact checking is just censorship. It's literally a group that gets to decide what is an acceptable view and what isn't. How is that not just plain censorship?<p>You can certainly argue that censorship isn't always a bad thing. But calling censorship "fact checking" is purposely misleading.</p>

<p>XMPP supports extensions.<p>Generally speaking, use the standard until you can't. Then just extend it and write up a proposal for your extension to make it into the next version of the official protocol.</p>

<p>I have no idea how Slack threads are intended to be used. Their own examples are very trivial and the implementation feels like like a first pass that they never did any usability testing with.</p>

<p>This is obviously a lie as in their own demo video it's very clearly not a physical chameleon.<p>Remember articles like this are PR pieces. Specifically written to sell the product and find more investors in the company.</p>

<p>Simple rule of thumb is one backend per team.<p>Things like upgrading the language version should not require coordination between multiple dev teams.<p>Of course there's 100s of permutations that work. Optimize for your situation. And if you have no clue what the right call is, go as simple as possible until it breaks on you.</p>

<p>I wouldn't say that.<p>My team uses a Rails backend and React apps on top. For us, React apps compared to Rails views just about cut our feature delivery time in half.<p>Of course, it depends on what domain you are working in. Dynamic frontends on Rails are a pain compared to React and probably some other front-end JS.<p>That said, on the backend Rails is a very mature framework that is hard to beat on most things.</p>

<p>I don't think they will.<p>I saw a bunch of this collection at Target and it all looks terrible in person.<p>To me Lego as a brand is quality and creative. Whereas these products all felt cheap and janky.<p>I would bet on them all being on clearance after Christmas.</p>

<p>I think we need to find a better way for the philosophy behind the scientific method to click.<p>The entire idea of a "fact" is flawed. We simply have more good evidence for some things than others. Teaching people to critically evaluate and compare the evidence is the trick.<p>Perhaps studying different perspectives of a politically neutral historic event would help people to understand.</p>
