Wherecombinator··on TLDR explains what a piece of code does
I’ve heard AI researchers describe this phenomenon before. As soon as something is discovered or invented it immediately becomes trivial and boring. The goalposts shift, and now they have to find the next amazing thing that will suffer the same fate.
Wherecombinator··on Apple’s next big thing: A business model change
I think the same. When they do AR I believe they’ll do it much better than anyone else. They’ll be some really cool feature that will make people flock to it, like apps on the iPhone.

On top of having to learn about software engineering practices, I’ve had to learn helm files, deployments, services etc. It was/is very overwhelming.

What a negative response. Someone is trying to come up with a new idea and you say you should only work to improve ideas that already exist. Say that to anyone who has ever come up with a paradigm shifting idea. It’s opinions like this that prevent people from trying to break the mould. Their enthusiasm should be encouraged irregardless of its effectiveness.
Wherecombinator··on Dan Price says raising min wage to $70k led to baby boom, revenue rise
This is the first I heard of these allegations. I just took a look at his Wikipedia and the judge sided with him for his brothers case. Unfortunately much harder to prove anything with the domestic abuse. With how much he posts on social media I could imagine him as a “do-gooder” narcissist though.
