I wonder how long until Elon makes everyone believe he founded Cursor.

Of course there are markets and balances in the real world. The idea that energy is always scarce and that we shouldn't produce more than I as an individual need always feels a bit like maintaining scarcity.

often energy storage has a lot of losses in the the conversion. but if you produce 10x of what you need for "free". Would that really matter? I'm sure we will get there at some point.

It's the low quality code from whatsapp and meta that's causing the battery usage doing all sorts of bad patterns like like constant outbound requests. So many apps like telegram don't have the same issues and are also just as responsive.

I’ve gotten the same feeling. It’s too consistent to be a fluke. I get the feeling its a fashion thats being pushed by VC funds who are all neck deep in nvidia, openai and anthropic stocks. They must have realized they can pump this to their portfolio to inflate all the investments.

Its surprisingly useful to know if you’re working with a entity that you made.

Html, css and js got used so much because you could mess around and still get something to work. While other languages that people use to write “serious” applications just screamed at you for not being smart enough to know how to allocate memory correctly.

Html and css is not a competitor to C. Its more like an alternative to file formats like txt or rtf. Meant to be written by hand in a text editor to get styled pages. So easy and forgiving your mom could do it! (And did, just like everyone else in the myspace days)
