As apps become easier to maintain and keep online, the extreme separation in roles is only important at companies with sufficient scale in some metric to need the specialization.

I can deploy a prod EKS/CI/CD setup with Terraform scripts, and be deploying code to the public in a morning now.

Like other service jobs, IT is going to contract sooner than later. NoCode infrastructure is where k8s was in 2014.

IT workers thinking in IT patterns as usual is a huge blocker to progress. Elder workers domain knowledge is stored in DBs and source control everywhere. It’s trivial to parse and transform into another syntax.

Congrats; you trained your Copilot replacements without even knowing it.

Thinking variety in the store is freedom was intentional propagandizing in the first place, to get people into factories, people spending at Walmarts of the world

Similar to how Turings model for computing is not the only one, your model of freedom is not the only one

A free market does not owe you the social contract you prefer

Multi platform with web isn’t easier than native OS

Whole lot of sites suck on mobile, not all devices have the grunt

Write once run anywhere continues to be a pipe dream

Also none of my desktop apps track me or blast me with ads

This is just about the GUI too; I can install a CLI only setup, and do science, infrastructure, and avoid the web framework or OS GUI bloat…

There’s no one size fits all anywhere.

Not sure what this is in reply to, but the graphics card companies operate on profit. The retailers operate on profit. Hosting services requires paying for them.

You want someone else to do what you aren’t. That’s not how it works. Prove its worth on the market.

I’m not saying that’s ideal, I’m saying that’s how it’s done, not through hoping and dreaming in the nooks and crannies of social media

It’s not made without personal experience

But of course the only experience out there is yours, so others comments are open to mockery and sarcasm

Relativity means you can’t really speak truth for anyone else, which I accept is true for me too

I speak from personal experience. How you feel about that speech means as much to me as my comments do to you

No more absurd than the working conditions of the majority in the US

Sorry reality sometimes intrudes on your cognitive clean room

It’s kind of crazy how you think free speech takes a back seat to your sensibilities.

No one else has to live in your mental box.

Because unlike in your head, the real world has costs for erecting a logistics pipeline.

Diverting from the pipeline that works for them is in your interest not theirs.

First world whiners; this graphics card QQing is approaching “I can’t get a haircut.” levels of cringe. HN thinks it’s so much more respectable and mature than Reddit, though. Still a bunch of first worlders moaning about reality not serving them just so.

This is how your culture has always worked; any one of us is not especially important to it. You want to roll that way? Put up a website to do so, work a deal with nVidia or AMD to be that pipeline.

“ We may miss out on valuable spontaneous ideas!"

Translation: all your thoughts are belong to us.

Retailer gets paid whether it’s you or someone else buying. Why invest in system upgrades?

I can find hyper-realistic humans anywhere, why waste computing power on this?

> Run your own node

Until ISPs block you like they did with DNS.

That’s what really should change; ISPs should be required to let anyone run services, bill for consumption.

But then the internet would be truly decentralized.

Most people just want messaging, calendar, and maps anyway. The rest of these apps serve first world tech bros who didn’t want a real job.

You inferred a moral judgment where none was intended.

Was it the use of “more”?

Do such folks have some indelible claim to the premise and conclusion and a monopoly on refusing to go further for others?

I did nothing but establish my line in the sand is similar to theirs. If you’re hurt by it, find a therapist.

Yes by using them thereby giving the developers reason to get out of bed.

More seriously; no. The license gives no warranty for the software, or potential issues I encounter. If the developer would take more professional responsibility there, I might feel like funding or contributing somehow. But if their approach is this is free stuff no strings, my approach is freely take and provide no guarantees in return.

Unfortunately nothing about the people backing crypto fosters trust, and the long development times for features that remain vapor make the coordination side seem sus.

It’s humans trying to pass off yet another unfalsifiable (to the masses who lack resources to vet its logic) system of distribution of information, and avoid accounting for “bugs” that don’t effect them.

Why is that? Because that’s all humans are capable of. We don’t literally repeat history but we have often repeated rewriting flawed social constructs with new flawed social constructs.

Just because the math fits neatly in a book does not mean it’s fits neatly into human agency.
