Yeah, I understand your frustration. This is an issue with Paramiko which pyinfra relies on. We have been debating moving away from Paramiko, but it will take a while for that to materialize.

Thanks!

There are currently 3 active maintainers incl. the creator of pyinfra. But there are many more contributors incl. repeat contributors.

There is a PR open for llms.txt and llms-full.txt. We'll try to merge it soon!

"Is still open source"

Does this mean that you anticipate Yaak not to be open source anymore at some point?

I'm arguing against it with the other two arguments you didn't address.

Yes, AI will change the role of software engineers - and it's my personal belief that in the next couple of years this change will be smaller than many people think. But no, AI will not replace engineers like Mark Zuckerberg thinks.

Why not? Because AI makes too many mistakes and AI is not going to support and maintain your code.

Can you re-read my comment and then re-read your own response. Do you think your reply is a thoughtful way of engaging in an interesting discussion?

I don't think your reply spawns meaningful discussion

I don't understand why so many people subscribe to this "prediction". It seems unsubstantiated hyperbole to me.

There are a few reasons why I don't believe AI will replace programmers anytime soon:

1. The job of a developer/engineer entails so much more than writing code. Figuring out what the business wants, turning that into a good (system) design, etc. takes up more time than the actual coding itself. Unless of course you take "programmer" literally, but I have not seen many companies that still hire programmers in the most narrow sense, that only focus on writing code.

2. Support and maintenance is a huge part of the job that I don't see AI doing. Theoretically you could let humans focus on that part, but I believe support and maintenence will become much more costly if the people doing they job have no familiarity with the code because they didn't write it.

3. As evidenced by many comments in the thread elsewhere on HN about the announcement of Claude Sonnet 3.7 AI still routinely makes mistakes that are super easy to spot and verify. As long as that remains the case, it's going to be detrimental to the success of you company if you give AI too much autonomy.

I know people will argue that AI is evolving so fast that the above will be solved soon. But I think all three aspects I mentioned are such fundamental roadblocks that they won't be solved soon.

What I do believe in is engineers becoming so much more productive as AI evolves.

What tool/editor/IDE did you use to do this?

I experienced the same in my previous job. And it makes me wonder: what do those applicants hope to get out of this ruse? It's not like hiring managers will think "oh, we've gotten this far into the process, we might as well arrange a lengthy and expensive visa process for them"

So now you need a framework on top of React - itself a framework. Has React really become so complex that mere mortals cannot comprehend it without another abstraction layer on top?

And the first suggestion for this extra abstraction layer is NextJS, developed by a company with a vested interest to make it hard to run your app on anything else than their own service.

Seems to me that the time is ripe to disrupt frontend development yet again and introduce a simpler stack.

That is fine as long as they don't mention any dates that are only relevant to certain cultures. Christmas and Easter? Remove it.

Because it's better for humanity? Because it's morally the right choice?

In a way that makes it worse. A community fork that is repurposed by a select few to make money off of work that those few did not do for the most part.

In certain areas of the US maybe. I believe the average wage in the EU is actually higher than in the US. Need to look up the Source, which is hard because I'm on mobile right now.

Because they normally have mandatory work-from-office days during which you're not allowed to WFH. So now you can get an exception for that

And you don't have to pay for it? The lower tiers that Kagi offers doesn't have AI stuff it seems.

I find it interesting that another comment states that they love Kagi exactly because Kagi uses all their search terms as opposed to Google. Not doubting your experience here, but I wonder how those experiences can differ so much.

If you hire someone to so a job for you, you are accountable. Unless they bring their own car and accept liability.

Honest question: what is not modern about JupyterLab? I know JupyterLab has existed for a long time, but continuous development has kept it modern.

I can't read this either.

Edit: at a distance it's easier to read

I'm not sure if you realize that this is _not_ a per user price, but a flat monthly fee. To me, that seems insanely cheap.

If you have a small team of 3 people who get paid 4k gross (severely under paid in all likeliness) then Jelly is 0.3% of your total cost.

As a European, I don't get this. You frame it as a choice between two people: a badass vs a bumbling idiot. Why should it be about the personalities of the candidates and not be a choice between the kind of policies that are being proposed and the ability to reason about them?

While I concede that subjectively, Trump can come across as badass and Harris might have been "phony" at times, when it comes to the policies both sides are defending during debates and even the way they express themselves verbally during debates, Harris comes across to me as someone who has better ideas and can explain them far better.

I think that the difference between politics in Europe vs the US is that the latter is based much more on cult of personality. And sadly that mode of operation is becoming more common here in Europe as well.

I personally don't care for the personal attacks and mud slinging. Let's bring back intelligent debates.

Really neat solution to build a nice looking resume! You get bonus points for using JSON Resume. I think it's smart to encode your resume in a machine readable format. That way you can generate any presentation you want from the pure data.

That also answers the question so many people seem to have: why not write HTML/CSS by hand instead of using Eleventy. That doesn't work if you want to separate data from presentation

The website states that Reactive Resume is open source, but no matter where I look on the website, I cannot find a link to the code.

Can you provide that?

Also question: does Reactive Resume let you import and export in JSON Resume format?

Caldendly/cal.com don't compete with/replace CalDAV. They solve different problems. CalDAV is a protocol for exchanging calendar data. Calendly and alternatives are tools to let people outside your organization schedule an appointment with you.

How is that your takeaway? Please quote the sections from his essay that led you to your conclusion.

My takeaway: people that know how to write, that have trained that muscle, are better at thinking in a structured way and articulating their thoughts. The number of people that know how to write is declining, at least in part due to the advent of GenAI. The number of people who know how to write is still non zero and is not limited to only Paul Graham.

Let's say that is the reason, then that seems a very valid reason, right? Accountability is important, especially in large organizations.

I guess what ticks me off a bit is the trope of dissing on management for saying 'no' but leaving out all the relevant context that might show management to be right.

Don't get me wrong, I've seen my own fair share of bad management. But it's not so black and white when it comes to grand sweeping decisions like "should we invest in PostgreSQL or keep paying Oracle big license fees?"

Every time I hear a story like this - "management says 'no'" - I wonder if anyone cared/dared to ask follow up questions.

Why was PostgreSQL not an option according to management? I would not take their dismissal at face value. I'd want to know why not. But that might be Dutch culture.

Are there any big feature flag SaaS vendors that support this? Like LaunchDarkly, Flagsmith, Unleash etc?

I do this as well, but be aware that these external names you're using for internal devices become a matter of public record this way. If that's okay for you (it is for me), then this is a good solution. The advantage is also that you run no risk of name clashes because you actually own the domain
