It's better than traditional autocomplete, but not transformative. ChatGPT is particularly bad with JavaScript — you're better off writing that yourself.
Apple's seeking to comply with the letter, rather than the spirit, of the law in order to maintain their ability to extract rents from the App Store. It's user-hostile (particularly given that they've now hobbled PWAs) but not surprising. Their behavior won't change without additional regulatory action.
I really did — the culture is very much true to the public perception, as are the founders. Losing access to the campus during COVID was heartbreaking though. I moved on to a more technologically-focused role with higher compensation but I look back on the time fondly.
We used the childcare at Patagonia when I was there prior to COVID. I believe it was run at a loss, the staff was excellent, student/teacher ratio was really great and there was an emphasis on bilingual instruction. It was affordable — Google could do the same if they cared. I imagine they don't.
I think that's a really interesting question and I'm honestly not sure. I'm more accustomed to working within design systems at this point but those have been homegrown and while they _could_ leverage Tailwind, typically do not.
I miss the days when chat wasn't fragmented across apps and platforms or could at least be unified in apps like Adium. Having to have a different app installed for myriad different contacts is, at best, irritating.
The negative outcomes are hard to argue with given Meta's scale. Having viable and vibrant journalistic outlets (that Meta had a hand in killing) and just talking to people, unmediated by a platform were both healthier.
We never should've privatized the public square and monetizing attention at scale in the fashion that allows social media to succeed has been nothing but bad for society writ large. That these companies also managed to exploit and then cripple journalism as a practice is just one of many negative externalities.
