A bit confused - Idea supports pythong and ts/js, why the need for three?

Sorry that is revisionist. The idea of getting a movie mailed or streamed always sounded better than shitty blockbuster with limited selection and late fees.

The growth was fast for netflix/amazon/paypal/etc and people saw how it was an improvement from the get go.

Plus Redux is horrible for performance, slows things down and overcomplicates everything.

Their autonomous taxi program is a joke right now, especially compared to Waymo. Way fewer cities/rides, and they haven't even deployed their cybertaxi thing.

Can a restaurant sue if the ai generated version is unappetizing?

They have to keep him since his hype train is what keeps the stock price high. Probably not going to end well for any long term holders of the stock.

If that works that would be...amazingly awesome/horrible.

Jetbrain's local history has saved my bacon several times. Its a good use of all that unused disc space.

You don't need a blockchain for that, see how old credit cards worked without network access.

The guy who Trump put in power of HUD is a fun research - meme stocks, giving away money on twitter to get a following, etc.

So your ai agent will send outreach emails to potential candidates it chooses, which is not really any different than using any of the automated recruiting tools already out there. I don't see what is the difference here - using LLMs to solve something that is already pretty much automates (outreach).

I love all the bot comments and upvotes, always a good sign!

I fail to see how this will make hiring faster/better - we already get so much recruiting spam, why would this be any different?

I hope everyone bans them, too many are copying them and its a major turnoff.

They seem idle as last mile transport - taking people to the offices after using the Caltrain for example.

Young startups often use third party recruiters. Whenever I am looking for a job, I go through my email archives looking for their cold emails and reach out to them.

React is a stable platform, not much to talk about other than big breaking changes. Its just not exciting but a hell of a lot of people us it.
