> Our customers are engineers, so we generally expect that our engineers can handle product, design, and all the rest. We don’t need to have a whole committee weighing in.

This is the reason you have the luxury of this approach, engineers tend not to care as much about the "little things", but average users, especially enterprise users, rely heavily on the little pieces of experience that make tech palatable to them.

"The digital industry is responsible for 2-5% of global emissions, more than the aviation industry" - we should not count mining as a digital industry. I can optimize webpage a bit, it would totally not affect how much energy bitcoin would burn (i.e. it would burn as much as possible, unless it is not profitable). We could move AI training to some other category too. Idk, I work with erlang, we can do several million connections on a single server for lightweight processing tasks. It is highly optimized, and it is still not the number one selling point for many users.
I didn't take the article as a "lack of organization" is best. I took the overall theme as that most methodologies are a distraction to what is most important, building things.
The fundamental issue, I think, is that there is a strong tendency for management to value process (measurable) over progress (often seems like nothing for weeks or months and then bam out of “nowhere” revolutionary new features.

Agile, scrum, etc al are supposed to be guidelines for engineering teams to maintain coherence on progress, but they describe a process, so inevitably management either interjects in the process, tries to use it as a handle to control the process, or pulls engineers out of the project to “manage” the process… all at the expense of progress.

Management can’t see progress, but they can see process. So naturally, they become focused on what they can see, and conflate the process for progress.

This reminds me of a scene in "A Fire Upon the Deep" (1992) where they're on a video call with someone on another spaceship; but something seems a bit "off". Then someone notices that the actual bitrate they're getting from the other vessel is tiny -- far lower than they should be getting given the conditions -- and so most of what they're seeing on their own screens isn't actual video feed, but their local computer's reconstruction.

I've had to use go occasionally and it feels like the language is designed to stop me from achieving my goals.

The standard library is unimpressive (to be generous), it has plenty of footguns like C but none of its flexibility.

Also for some reason parenthesis AND \n are required. So you get the worse of C and python there.

> I, on the other hand, can't stand Qt or apps that try to look "native" in general.

100%. That's why I said "at least" and it's the feeling I have with Electron too. Electron apps (nor Qt ones) do not really feel native, and in that case, better to either go full native (so it doesn't feel like an imperfect approximation) or just deliver a web app that you can use on a browser?

The in-between ends up in a gray area that never feels quite right. But I agree it is in part a matter of style and expectations.

Though I also agree the Win32 look is terrible and outdated. GTK and Cocoa on Linux and macOS are really great and good looking native technologies. I've seen more and more projects target GTK on Windows instead of Win32 for this reason.

I do recommend a small length of foam tape for the left side of the door, though, the hinge is not lined and some fumes come out. Putting some foam there greatly improves that.

OP didn't say they "beat" the game. If you want to argue that, it's a different discussion.
I am always suspicious of any device that requires an app. It feels so unnecessary in most cases. Everything from headphones to lawnmowers to air fryers seems to have an app now. Often the app is bad in terms of its functionality because it’s an afterthought. But I’m more concerned about the privacy around them.

Sure, I can deny all the permissions I want. But as a consumer, I feel like there have been situations where I see something unusual, for example, in search results or recommendations, that makes me feel like I have a leak in my privacy somewhere. And I think these apps are part of it. I don’t fully trust the privacy model of smartphones and the apps on them. But I shouldn’t have to either.

There are also many apps that do not work unless you give them a lot of permissions. And it feels like there is no good reason to require those permissions. I feel like such apps should be banned from the App Store.

PS: an air fryer is just a small convection oven. You can just use your oven or get a small countertop one.
This would have been good 20 years ago, but now, nope.

I dislike that answer because it's not really an answer, it's a handwave.

Perhaps the way to start is to refine the question. As you point out, "IT skills" is vague enough to be unhelpful in terms of understanding what the kids really want to know. But it would be a great starting point for a discussion that could lead to refining the question to be closer to what the kids actually want to know.

It depends from which point of view you are talking about.

A lot of people are familiar with web technologies, therefore using something like Electron is way easier for them. That makes a lot of sense.

However, from an end user point of view, Electron (while potentially easier to developer with for a large pool of developers) doesn't feel native. You can tell you are running a web app inside that doesn't obey the OS conventions, the standardised OS shortcuts, looks different than the rest, etc. It's like it doesn't quite match and all the muscle memory you have for working with other native apps (mainly for keyword-heavy users like myself) just doesn't work, making it a frustrating experience. Plus many (not all!) Electron apps are super heavy weight and feel slow when you contrast them with other truly native apps.

Overall, I think you will see a lot of people that don't really mind Electron, but many do. I think it largely comes down to whether you want to develop a desktop app faster yourself, or deliver a desktop app that would satisfy almost every user out there (which might be harder to build).

And BTW, this is coming from somebody that worked a LOT with Electron, as the original author of Etcher (https://github.com/balena-io/etcher), plus I led the Desktop Team at Postman (https://www.postman.com, which is arguable one of the worst Electron apps out there, mostly due to really bad early architecture/business decisions) for a while. I tried everything but I gave up on it. It can never even be a good enough approximation to a native experience that many users expect.

In any case, great job with GitQuill. It does look pretty cool and I wish it was a native app!

That's a good point. I imagine this advice would be actively bad advice for building more complicated things (e.g. an IDE, perhaps a game, a turbotax alternative).

Part of the skill of engineering is knowing when you need to do upfront engineering and when you can just throw some code at the wall.
> The user had spent the entire weekend developing the app, and admitted that he would have been more careful to manage his Codebuff usage had it not been for this bug.

On the flip side, there's probably useful things to learn from how he developed his app when he didn't feel the need to be careful; in a way, your $500 mistake bought you useful test data.

In my own use of Aider, I noticed I'm always worried about the costs and pay close attention to token/cost summaries it displays. Being always on my mind, this affects my use of this tool in ways I'm only beginning to uncover. Same would likely be true for Codebuff users.
FWIW Retr0id is one of the big community bluesky/AT protocol developers and importantly the person who more or less figured this out (or at the very least brought it to the community's attention).

Point being that they were just clarifying the situation as they are probably one of the most informed people on the situation (with the other reply in this subthread being a first party bluesky dev and therefore one of the other SMEs on the topic).

The problem here, as always is that there isn't an agreed-upon answer for the question:

>What does an algorithm look like?

The problem is expressiveness of such a diagram is bounded by the size of a screen or a sheet of paper, and once one starts to scroll, or can't see the entire flow at a glance, things get complicated.

The node/wire programming folks have this a bit rougher to the point that there are sites such as:

I prefer to work visually, but not sure if that's actually valid --- unfortunately https://www.blockscad3d.com/editor/ doesn't support all of OpenSCAD and https://github.com/derkork/openscad-graph-editor has problems with a stylus (I have to leave the Windows Settings app open to toggle stylus behaviour which is enough friction that I don't use it as much as I would otherwise).

There are promising tools though: https://nodezator.com/ and https://ryven.org/ are very cool.

This is correct but it's never as hard as it seems.

First, that is a problem only for the very first version of X. Then you use X for version X+1.

Second, building from source usually doesn't mean having to build every single dependency. Some .so or .dll are already in the system. Only when one has to build everything from scratch the first step would have to solve the original X from X problem but I think that even a Gentoo full system build doesn't start with a user setting in bytes in RAM with switches (?), setting the program counter of the CPU and its registers to eventually start the bootstrap process.

I believe the team has a working build of JerryScript [1] to test out the C bindings, but I’m not sure that will be released.

My understanding is that work on the Wasmtime VM guest is ongoing, which will enable Hyperlight to run the StarlingMonkey engine [2]. This is a WebAssembly build of Firefox’s SpiderMonkey engine which was donated by Fastly to the Bytecode Alliance.

That said though, I agree it would be great to see runtimes like V8 and JSC run directly on Hyperlight. There are good reasons why people might prefer those over StarlingMonkey (compat comes to mind), and it would be neat to see how much faster they could start compared to conventional VM deployments.

Capital-A Agile is for companies that want the benefits of agile (higher velocity) but don’t want to trust their employees or make any meaningful changes in how the management team operates (micromanagement, committing to rigid feature scopes on rigid schedules).

Obviously this doesn’t increase work but companies get to say they are “agile” and the management team gets to keep doing all the counterproductive management they were doing before. No hard conversations about changing how management operates or unpredictable things like giving engineers autonomy.
