I see a lot of responses here taking the purist line: that it's not real design and customers will know the difference. I suspect it's close enough in many cases that customers won't know or won't care. Likely it will have a big impact on design employment.

Quick: let's release something new that gives the appearance that we're still relevant

Shutdown because they either stopped paying their dues or didn't agree to the recent increase

Yep if you wrote lambda@edge functions, which are part of Cloudfront and can be used for authentication among other things, they can only be deployed to us-east-1

The market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent.

> This utterly baffles me. [checks] The post isn't 25y old. Author is obviously intelligent and posses self awareness and analytical skills.

One lens on this is that according to him he hasn't sold a single share since he left the company. That would mean he has a substantial monetary reason to see that people keep believing in HP.

Had a black and white laserjet printer in the late 1980s. Was a magnificent device and super reliable.

Those 2 charts are amazing! At least the Itanium people adjusted their curves downward over time, looks like the IEA just carried on regardless!

So a 145% tariff on high tech goods will hurt the US too much? China should ban high tech exports to the US. That's gonna hurt both sides but the war was already started by Trump.

Actually I wrote it for Elon then added the headcount reduction!

From an alternate universe:

I apologize for my erratic behavior which has tarnished our brand and created unnecessary turmoil within our organization. Regrettably, we will need to implement a 16% reduction in headcount to address the financial challenges we now face. I have decided to step aside and hand over control to my deputy, who I believe will provide the steady leadership needed to rebuild trust and restore our company's vision.

I think it's smart to start with a high level language which should reduce development time, prove the worth of the application, then switch to a lower level language later.

What was that saying again? Premature optimisation is the root of all evil

Save money and go analog! Calibrate against a known spectrum. One example would be a sodium vapour street light but there aren't as many around these days.

A spectroscope is a handheld optical device which allows you to see the light distribution coming from a light source. Should be able to pick one up for under a hundred bucks.

Agreed from a software engineering perspective. I can't imagine who still uses stack overflow.

However I'm still in the phase where I think of opening a browser before realising my IDE with it's LLM is a better first choice.

The great thing about young people is that they haven't had much time to develop a moral compass. I'd say that makes them perfect for the roles they've been given

Maybe it's a cultural thing but to me this comes across as racist

I'm not a cheerleader of China by any means but the attitude you have towards China is scary. Why does the US have to control the world in order to be safe?
