Interested to see the conversation here on HN. Tech independence and the idea of owning the systems and machines we operate are topics that frequently surface among enthusiasts. Yet, independence may not be the best way to describe it. Does autonomy fit the bill, satisfying a sense of self-direction while also reaping the benefits of our interdependence at large?

Excellent game, just recently started playing touch for old times' sake!

I wonder if Mario Maker served similarly for the next cohort. Or even if Tears of the Kingdom, with such a flexible play style, encourages a similar spirit.

Great scene! The math seems a bit different at a head coach's salary.

The difference between Vibe coding and AI-assisted coding. There is a gradation!

Table layout, my old friend!

An app like this would be used as augmentation rather than simulation.

What a long way to have come from the beige towers!

My first thought as well!!

I had a similar sensation. I often think about a friend of mine who mentioned, in passing, a sense of having won the lottery of life for being born in this day and age, in a first-world country

I enjoy using it! I don't tend to it as often as I could, and there are some ways in which the fields available on profiles/marking touch points don't exactly match my preferred mental model.

But this is one of those instances where I appreciate opinionated software reminding me to invest in what matters in relationships.

For certain functionality, we import libraries. For others, we've handwritten solutions. Even so — sometimes we have to crack open the repo for a library to really dig in to what's going on. That seems to go for domain experts as well.

I think we've always been working with the scenarios of what's solved for us and what we need to solve manually. AI is certainly not an abstraction layer, but there are ways to use it where you are still driving, learning, and shipping.

Helpful framing, thanks for sharing!

Gripping! Wonderful surprise to read this today

I understand your point and ultimately agree with the systemic problems here.

And, as a "Learn to Code" guy who's had a successful and interesting career filled with self-study and continual improvement, I'll call you a gatekeeper.

As someone who lived in TX through the winter storm power crisis in 2021, I approve of the pause.

FYI, this recently changed to only apply to the mobile app. Browser access and 3rd party apps are not restricted.

Enterprise certainly wouldn't fit. This argument seems to be targeted at the consumer market, which Apple deals in. Consumers are not paying varying Disney+ subscription prices based on how much they watch. So many points are still interesting. Though, I'm not convinced the consumer market is the primary target for AI firms.

It begins.

Books and fiction were some of the first to be democratized as a result of the internet.

Generated? Or are we all reading so much generated material in our workflows that it's seeping into our authentic dialogue

I agree with you. Stepping stones are still a part of getting there, if only to be briefly useful.

Well put. Adding that for those who are looking to have kids, there are generational considerations. It's not only the parents wanting the middle-class life for themselves, but it's also understanding that raising a child with that level of access to resources is what ideally sets the child up for a better life onward. The impact is exponential down the line, and no one wants to be responsible for a move in the opposite direction generationally.
