... offline capable and redo E-Mail with default encryption and signatures. And in a universal time tick of 3 hours for message passing and updates.

Problem(s) solved.

... and it's still a really useful and powerful tool. Truly impressive IMHO.

When corporations do this it's usually the first step in a major overhaul. The last to go will not get treated so politely, they'll be kicked out.

It's simple logic. I can't provide real value-add as a regular developer or IT expert anymore. AI is good enough in most cases. At the same time we're experiencing a demographic collapse. This means that people are becoming more valuable, not less. The Nash equilibrium of a society banking on this sort of automation is somewhere beyond a fertility crisis and the collapse of culture. The only winning move is to exit the industry, I'm not needed here anymore. I'm currently looking for ways to go back closer to performing arts that I did in the 90ies using my extensive IT skills as a cultural technique rather than a job.

... Anti-Matter Grenades?

Pretty much this.

AFAICT and have heard the cascading climate change effects have already been kicked loose. The planets albedo (it's ratio of reflection) has already dropped into a feedback loop that will only accelerate things. We can kiss our glaciers goodbye and the dutch will likely have to find a new place to stay within this century. As some island nations already have to know.

It's it a guzzling Harley or something with 7+ liters per 100km? Or a SuperCub with 1.5 liters? The latter would be somewhat acceptable IMHO. The former not.

Thank you, thank you, I'm here all week.

Don't worry, greytree. I understood that this is heavily ironic. Sorry you're getting the clueless responses.

... I hope this move doesn't screw it up.

For the uninformed: Deno is basically the "new" official non-shitty successor to Node.js. It's secure (closed) by default, supports TypeScript natively without the need for transpilation, has the full browser API on the server side and comes with a bunch of neat other features that turn Jamstack development from the bloated and fickle shit-show that is Node into a chill walk in the park. I've been using it exclusively for a few years now and have come to avoid Node.js like the plague for real world deployment.

The new Xiami 18 Fold is probably still available and is basically the exact same shell hardware build.
And AFAICT it's cheaper and better in the specs. Which was to be expected.

Gotta envy Apple though, how much they got their fan crowd under control. Pretty impressive IMHO.

... astonishingly clunky on my machine too. Don't think you need vibe coding to fix that though. Perhaps a senior or two who are better at setting the right priorities for the software.

Dude, FOSS has been fragmented since the dawn of time. It's what we lament about every day. "Why can't there be one distro?" "Why so many JS frameworks?" "Oh, yeah, yet another ORM and yet another PHP CMS, just what we needed!" etc.

FOSS certainly doesn't need AI to be the noisy mess that it is. If anything I expect AI to accelerate development for teams who want to get well-rounded user-centric stuff done and know what they're doing.

"So, I use AI to do the things that I'm bad at."

Absolutely. I totally agree and his reasoning makes total sense to me, it's the same conclusion I would draw.

That algorithm should come with a GLP-1 licensure.
