What makes you so sure that AI coding price will drop ? There are many reasons to think otherwise.

People do not generally want to build software to impress at parties, that is a very weird flex, even if you are trolling.

There is a huge difference between pushing your kids to overcome their current limits and forcing them to do something they do not enjoy at all.

This is all fun and games until your kid has school assignments with deadlines

Then you have a mediocre developer not willing to align his interests with those of the company. Cannot end well.

Totally agree there, the article makes complete confusion between the execution model and the tech used to execute. Especially since it says « not CGI as the protocol but as the model ».

As far as model goes, the serverless one is not a different model. It is still a flavor of the CGI concept. But the underlying tech is different. And not that much. It is only serverless for you as a customer. Technically speaking, it runs on servers in micro-VMs.

Those are orthogonal matters, and even if such tech as the middleware mentioned get some wind, the execution model is still the same and is not new.

Any tig users here ? I’m happy with it since then, looks like the feature set is pretty similar

This clearly is an ECS. I don't get why the author argues otherwise. It is fine to be an ECS.

Ask HN: What is C++ for you?

Hello guys

I will soon give a talk about C++ and C++11 particularly, and I would like to focus on what most people/geeks/developers think of C++11, whatever it is true or not. I am not looking for long arguments about proving who has the truth. I want you personal feeling about C++. Dont mix up your though too much to look trustworthy, just tell it as it is, if you would be so kind. If you dont know enough about C++ to have an opinion, just state it (that is valuable for me).

What the word "C++" brings into you mind ? Do you think it is hard to learn ? Do you think it is good for avanced users and too hard for others ? Do you think it is too low level and should be avoided in a modern code base ? Do you think it is a choice language for modern software ? Do you think it have nothing to do with the internet world and is or will be overwhelmed by "web" languages ? Do you think it is a crippled C extension ? Do you think it is old and should only be used for its initial purposes ? Do you think it is boring to be a C++ developer ? Do you think it is inelegant compared to "beautiful" and strongly expressive languages ? Do you think learning C++ is valuable for a software developer ? Do you think it has a poor community ?

Those questions are oriented and I do not expect anybody to answer each of them. I just wrote them down to help you figure out your opinion.

Thank you very much for any feedback.
