It’s a very good post — and I do agree with the main ideas. It’s pretty remarkable how good writers like Scott Alexander and others are able to consistently pump out good writing, especially when the key does seem to always comes down to clarity (and mostly revision for me). Maybe reps are able to give that over time, but even with getting older and now being able to bounce ideas off LLMs == it still takes me so many iterations before I feel like my prose / ideas / outlines are worth sharing.
Super insightful. I hadn’t been able to articulate the same feelings.
Even as Next seppukus itself,
people will likely just fall back
to React on Vite…
This is my exact read on the situation, as well. I’m not sure if anything can meaningful affect React’s domination in the short-term or medium-term, even with the accumulation of poor choices.
I tried Deno for awhile — the ability to run Jupyter notebooks was a cool idea — but I’ve been Bun-only for around a year now. It’s just significantly faster and easier to use.
I’ve been primarily a Python developer since 2012 and recently switched to uv. The ability to manage dependencies, venv, and multiple Python versions makes it best-in-class now. It really is a fantastic tool.
My current solution is pdfplumber → GPT-3 API. I played around with a few different options, and this is personally what’s worked best for my use cases.
I've been following his woodworking channel for 10 years — and I have no interest in woodworking myself. I've never come across someone who is 1) 99th percentile at the craft, 2) probably better at videography than the craft itself, and 3) will literally walk you through his line of thinking while including all the dumb mistakes he thought along the way.
Hikaru has a similar way of explaining high-level chess and coming off as human, but the quality of Frank's stuff is nearly unparalleled, in my opinion. It's like watching an absolute master of his craft have a beer with you and explain his 4D chess moves in an Explain Like I'm 5 years old format.
Interesting read! Crazy that it was basically 3x increase/decrease in productive hours. Wouldn't try this myself, but found it interesting nonetheless @sberens.
I was similarly going to recommend HTMX — think the ease-of-use and beginner-friendliness is exactly what OP is looking for. (The Rails comment mentioning Turbo is basically the same thing as HTMX, so feels like a few of us are in agreement.)
