This is an interesting anecdote, but the implied takeaway (that this is somehow a generalizable thing between Europe and the US) on the whole, is remarkably dumb.

I agree it’s not as intentional as dhh describes - they’re not looking for complexity specifically. But they are looking for challenge and fun (with little consideration for company value). If you’ve never seen that first hand I’m guessing there’s a selection effect at play.

A lot of people’s opinions/recommendations on what libraries to use or avoid, ultimately come down to “silly” things like this. It’s basically aesthetics/ergonomics but that seems too trivial so we make up deeper, more scientific sounding terms and talk past each other.

This same principle is why my day to day earphones look like this. One item that sits around your neck all the time = basically un-lose-able, whereas AirPods = 3 items to keep track of. https://t.co/IZgH5qP0Ig

I love that Stripe raised the bar for what a developer product should look like. But if we’re being honest there’s no long term business model for payments companies without eventually rent seeking or racing-to-the-bottom on price.

More html-first fun - the interactive bits of this took me about 15 minutes to write.
✅ Type to select using vanilla html (datalist)
✅ Conditional dropdown using the teeniest bit of htmx
✅ Date picker using vanilla html
✅ A dash of mini js for the quantity selector https://t.co/7cKyziLZxT

There's an incredibly grumpy old man going around the internet shouting at people for not using HTML THE WAY IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE USED, and I'm worried he's going to come for html-first next, he's on a *rampage*

Hot take: It's bizarre that filmmakers make movies about real people which are mainly accurate then they just completely make new stuff up (character traits, stories) in the name of entertainment, and everyone just acts like it's normal but also leaves not knowing what's accurate and what's fake.

The more new teams I work with, the stronger I feel that multi-channel instant messaging tools like Slack are a bad idea - assuming you have more than 10 or so people, you have to constantly fight to correct the behaviours they create.

The Airbnb search bar is a good example of a "rich interactive UI" that many would say can't/shouldn't be built HTML First. But the whole thing can be achieved with two concepts (attributes which can set state, attributes whose values are linked to that state).

So @RevolutApp took two factor auth and made it even more infuriating (my devices are right beside each other)
Really can’t wait til we have proper self custody and crypto payments - I would happily take the risk of keeping my everyday balance in a hot wallet to avoid the unpredictability and extreme inconvenience of these lowest common denominator security practices.

So many great companies with great founders and great ideals end up in this spot - sacrificing UX & customer experience in the pursuit of extreme profit maximisation at all costs to justify the VC funding they’ve raised. Sad but unsurprising.

Love to see people experimenting with this! One thing I was surprised by on my exploration - @digitalocean, while comparatively cheaper than the big cloud providers, is *not* the cheap option. If you’re going to handle your own deployments anyway, you can get 8gb ram and 4 cores from @ContaboCom for €4.99 (90% lower than same specs on DO, which costs €48).

This kind of shit is why we have so much complexity in web world. Malte knows that the vast majority of the applications/sites deployed on his platform are not the kind of "high performance websites" that need heaps of javascript (and bundling) to achieve their desired functionality, yet he's asserting that this approach unconditionally doesn't work, as though it's some fundamental law of physics, I'm assuming because he knows that this move back toward a more simple web is bad for business.
Vercel's built an incredible reputation but is using it to mislead people into thinking this stuff *has* to be complex. It doesn't

An addendum to this - database as a service businesses are the same thing - a thin layer over commoditised open source technology, where the enormous premium is only justified by very large enterprises. Over a long enough time horizon these are bad business models and a race to the bottom because they provide so little value to the average non-enterprise customer and are (reasonably) easy to replicate/diy.

One of the most noticeable traits of low self-awareness people:
Extrapolating their own responses to things onto the entire population. I.e “I responded this way to this experience/food/stressor/story, therefore this *must* be what every human on the planet is like”
The most exhausting people have this trait combined with extreme certainty about almost everything.

It’s weird we don’t have vocabulary to talk about the fact that work in a lot of places is getting more interdisciplinary yet roles are meant to be neatly describe-able in a single job title and job spec that’s universal across companies. Doesn’t make any sense

This 100%. APIs are already abstracted perfectly and super readable on their own. Adding an obfuscation layer just requires that the developer learn a new set of patterns, and most of the time they’ll need to know how the underlying API works anyway

Been playing with this for a few days now and I'm obviously biased but this is the most fun I've had with a new library since @rails. The time-to-value is so quick because it builds on concepts you already know and doesn't really need any documentation. Built out tabs and an accordion in 5 minutes this morning. Can't wait to share

If you have a Product Hunt account, please go upvote @ConjureSo and try it out. It's an insanely comprehensive behaviour modification tool that has 10x the capabilities of anything else in the space, not a rough MVP you'd normally see on PH. @Whelton has done an incredible job

I had a hunch this was the case. Still haven’t seen any examples of AutoGPT doing the crazy stuff it’s aparently capable of. Is it possible that a bunch of Twitter threadbois hyped this thing with Twitter threads and the influencers/pods ran with it (cough cough All In)

This weeks mania:
- A friend is replacing a THIRD of his team with ChatGPT agents???
- ChatGPT plug-ins were apparently rendered impotent by AutoGPT already? Who knew
- Round sizes will need to come down because the teams will all be “3 guys and a bunch of agents”
Unhinged…

McKay’s claim here is that the impact of AI on software dev will continue to grow exponentially along with the underlying intelligence APIs. I think that’s incorrect, because I don’t think access to intelligence is the “final boss” in increasing speed and output when building software.

This is quite big from someone as influential and thoughtful as @Rich_Harris
Really hope this is a little nudge for people to actually consider whether they need a build step/typescript versus the current dogmatic "this is how it should be" attitude.

There was a long period where the difference between assembly-line-style teams (left diagram) and design-process-style teams (right diagram), in terms of output, quality, and return on investment wasn't large enough to be noticeable. My hunch is that the new generation of AI-tool-assisted lean teams (one or two programmers, minimal specialization) is going to make that gap much much larger, potentially too large to justify the cost structure of the team on the left.
