> We could just improve desktop apps tech (including discoverability, delivery, interoperability, portability and UI design flexibility) but we chose the browsers

Who do you mean "we"? There is, in a fundamental sense, no "we", only a bunch of competing companies, uncoordinated individuals, and tiny groups of enthusiasts.

The browser situation is the no-mans-land in the middle of a war between platform monopolists on the desktop, platform monopolists in the browser, malware authors, privacy-invading advertisers, software pirates, and the poor third party developers just trying to find a place to sell software.

Neither Microsoft nor Apple are going to surrender the total control of their platforms; cross platform development is always going to straddle those.
I guess you're not the target consumer, so none. The main selling points are privacy ("like no other") and cross-platform extensions, which don't matter to you
I think they’re just saying that just like you shouldn’t take one person’s opinion/experience (in the article) as gospel, you shouldn’t take another single person’s opinion/experience (in the comment) as gospel.
How do you deal with visa (and general legal matters wrt working and getting paid) issues?
Housing in the Tenderloin?

shudders

The drugs, the filth, the human droppings, the humans raving in the street in drug induced stupors...

I don't want to say "the Tenderloin needs less housing" but I do think it needs less people. And ways to discourage people from moving there.

I don't want to take a job in downtown SF precisely because the street scene there: filthy, noisy, chaotic, and dangerous.

Get all the people who buy drugs out of the Tenderloin so the drug dealers have reason to be there so they'll leave. :(
So just use fiat?!
I don't know about producing in one day what it would take another person 2 weeks to accomplish, but I do know there are some core features of my company's app that were created by a very talented developer that I don't think could be reproduced by some of our junior developers in a year.

I think it's a mistake to conceive of the difference as one between the tortoise and the hare, where the tortoise gets there, eventually. There are bits of this code that the tortoise just wouldn't ever end up producing if you gave them all the time in the world.
Personally I think, whatever ctrl-s is doing instead of saving, is the only really hostile default in vim. To a beginner it's the "mysteriously break vim for good" shortcut. And maybe the lack of ctrl-c/-v clipboard management. I hate pasting things into default vim.
Looks to be the case. Disabling WebGL 2.0 at the browser level fixes the issue.
The flame is alive and well, just look at the comments! Now that Emacs got out of the way (hah!) Vim is dealing with the next contender, vs code.
I'm curious how the personal mission/ambition Elon has of SpaceX marries with fiduciary duty and shareholder expectations. If he is being honest, the true goal is "reach mars". There may not be money at the end of that tunnel.
Is this for real? Do merchants really rely on some opaque third-party service to determine which accounts are able to pay? Is this third-party able to essentially blacklist aka unbank accounts at their will, without a legal appeal process?

How can a system that supports this be considered better than USD or EUR?
This just sounds like cash with extra steps
What's the equivalent of Puzzle Storm -- rapid drills to improve pattern recognition -- in other domains, e.g. coding?
At least pretend to address a point made please instead of just repeating your earlier comment.
(1) If you are a software dev you probably have a process that involves waiting for compiles, builds, downloads, etc. At the very least you have to have one thing you do when you are waiting.

(2) Frequently people multitask to manage their emotions. It is like having a choice between a room that is too cold and too hot and you can be comfortable moving from one to the other.
You can easily reproduce that an atmosphere higher in CO2 gets warmer without having a second Earth, you don't need a full planet to test a single atmospheric effect. What you can't do is quantify that to a meaningful measure in the context of Earth. We have no way of knowing if X more CO2 will cause Y warming, or if 2X CO2 will cause 2Y warming or 10Y or .5Y. We can be very certain tat more CO2 means warmer, but how much or how bad isn't clear.

It's quite hot in Texas. Just a quick look up, the daily average summer low in Austin is higher than Copenhagen's daily high.
I knew an older, highly successful CXO type who had changed careers from developer into management and gone to a low-tier MBA school in the process who had a hilarious line: "I've worked with a ton of Harvard MBAs, I had to fire every one of them."

Your point about career shift is really where the MBA shines. MBAs should be viewed as a tool for those who are moving out of a direct technical field into management, and MBA students should bring some real world context with them to their classwork.

The problem with the so-called elite MBA schools is they are designed not for people with experience, but recruit those right out of undergrad with 0 business experience. This results in a general graduate population with highly inflated sense of confidence and no actual work to back it up, a very dangerous combination.
