Unless the contract was written so poorly this didn’t happen?

Would be awesome if true

The person it benefits the most is the author, when they are building it and the errors-per-use are as high as they’ll (hopefully) ever be.

Because Literally everyone else in the US is an immigrant. Or are you referring to the Spanish that settled the west? The French in the far south? The Italians and Jews that populated New York? The British and Africans?

I’m painting in broad strokes, but to say “the American People” as if it’s somehow distinct from immigrants is just ladder pulling.

Asking someone who’s going that way already to drop it on their way is inherently efficient in some circumstances.

Once there’s remuneration, it’s not a big jump to making the trip just for that. Add an app and the gig economy is born.

I can feel it sometimes, as my brain shuts down and I gamble instead of thinking. It's a reversion to what I call "monkey mind" where you just keep pressing buttons to "make it work". I took a decade training my mind away from this, and too much AI is bringing it back.

Spoiler: probably not.

Obviously both are capable of the other.

The vanilla HTML styles look bare, so you have do _something_. TUI’s look sort of cool in their simplest form.

I knew “Jeeves” decades before I knew (and came to love) Wodehouse.

My wife was shocked to learn how much she liked Claude after these forced experiences with AI.

The point of a review shouldn’t be to make sure it’s exactly how the reviewer would do it. Is it safe? Does the author understand the area? Is there evidence the code has been exercised? Does it follow the major conventions?

Beyond that, I try very hard to build a culture of approvals vs nitpicking, and let the linters enforce the rest.

I find it easier to reason about and as it ages, stays maintainable vs more elsif branches with multiple conditions each.

Does just being able to live mean getting a new phone occasionally? Getting a coffee/treat once a week? A job that doesn't leave you in physical pain, sometimes permanently?

Happiness is the gap between expectation and reality. Our expectations are very high without sounding unreasonable.

This is the shift I'm talking about– maybe we don't conciously yearn for glamor and wealth, but what we see as normal is a luxury lifestyle compared to previous generations.

It isn’t enough to be middle class, to have the proverbial white picket fence. The reach now is for glamor and wealth, which is by definition out of reach for the majority.

If that’s the ideal you compare your own life to, you will be unhappy. And the debt, etc you take on to mimic it will make you even more unhappy.

The shift was already happening pre-internet, but social media took it to the next level.

If you answer No and complain that it’s not taken seriously, it’s at least in part because you didn’t show the risk clearly.
