This is clearly an AI bot. Watch it automatically respond to my comment.

I believe Hotwire for Ruby on Rails uses a lot of HTMX under the hood.

This is something I am very curious to learn from others since I am, relatively speaking, quite new to HN.

HN posts seem to go from very supportive to very critical of AI with very few articles striking a balance.

Was there a time or technology phase in the past (I'm thinking perhaps when everyone was going over to GraphQL just because of the hype) that you recall being similar to this? If so, how did you maintain curiosity without feeling yourself go through the extremes of "This is the worst / best thing to ever happen"?

I really like the Ruby on Rails ecosystem and have deeply considered working at Shopify.

This has to be one of the hardest parts of working there. A bug takes down other peoples businesses.

Applying here was an odd experience. No acknowledgment or reply even after multiple follow ups. This was from applying back in 2025.

The bread shop analogy made my year

Perhaps even something like the Opus 4.7 token cost would become correlated with the market fluctuations...

I wonder how much Robinhood will profit from this change.

Obviously how much the average user will profit / compile debt from this change is a lot more variable.

How did you get 300+ karma in only 19 days?

Looking at your comments, it looks like a bot has been reading articles and leaving easy questions to build karma.

What on earth is this page, project, and thread?

Glad - I - wasn’t the only one that saw - AI article - giveaways…

GitHub stars have been proven to be easily purchasable.

Happy to hear the progress and that should be celebrated without the focus on stars.

Lol love all the responses

It feels very much written by a team of humans. Here's to hoping I'm not wrong.

I respected the "No Pure Managers" part. That's similar to what happened at our org.

The question remains, if there are no pure managers, then is this CSM / Sales shipping production code? If yes, then it's indeed scary...

> No pure managers: Every leader at Coinbase must also be a strong and active individual contributor. Managers should be like player-coaches, getting their hands dirty alongside their teams.

>Even though I personally am moving some projects away from Bun, don't take my advice as gospel.

Always appreciated nuance.

I really appreciate this share. It's very honest.

Makes me think that anything taken too far can be a bad thing. Pity in its raw form is an incredibly empathetic side of our human nature and can be extraordinary.

However, if pity is made a reward system for the people receiving the empathy, it can be used manipulatively. I believe CS Lewis called it "a passion for pity" (I could be wrong).

I can't stop thinking about the amount of people they engaged with simply never to be seen again. Are gym membership commitments a lot less serious than I remember these days?

This article fails to mention Sarah burned out and is now a barista.

I appreciate the data driven approach. The article is spot on, it's really hard to distinguish all the discourse with the reality. Things most people grew up with in the 70s had years of propaganda convincing the public they were a net positive to society.

Sidebar, I'm very curious to see where AI goes. Definitely not on the hype train. More curious than anything. This article was a breath of fresh air.

I’ve noticed a lot of business models intentionally try to funnel you through their sales pipeline and only expose the price after “getting to know you”.

Which is slang for “getting a chance to plead their case for why it’s going to be so bloody expensive”.

GitHub didn't have a CTO until 2017. Vlad Federov only started in 2024.

I can't help but think it's a bit more complicated than that.

GitHub back in the day was a healthy version of "Move fast and break things". I wonder what's different.

> I want to be there but it doesn't want me to be there.

This hit me pretty hard. I hope GitHub finds its way sooner rather than later.

I have the highest hopes for this. At the same time, I can’t help but be skeptical of the claims for no ads / no data selling lasting -forever-.

Build the platform, then find out how to make money on it later.

Man, we really took the Google Plus days for granted…

Anyone else notice the header text gets cut off on mobile? On an iPhone 17 no less...

Hm I’m not sure what the takeaway from this is. Are we shocked that Anthropic has such an aggressive issue auto close policy for tools that essentially automate issue creation?

The inverse (not auto closing issues) seems worse.

Perhaps the take away is the “without review” part. But that begs more questions. What would a review system be? We can’t possibly expect it to be human reviewers for all the slop.

I got so much joy out of seeing it take 32 gigs of RAM. Bravo.

"Lackluster celebration" is on brand for Apple these days.

If it's anything like the layoffs I went through at my company, it's always nuanced.

Lots of talented hard working engineers are laid off at the same time that they lay off people just checking Slack on their phone on the plane to avoid taking PTO.

Reading the r/employeesOfOracle is a bit gutting. Hoping for the best for the people. Don't really care much for Oracle; especially their business model.
