USD is currently weaker than EUR. That's been the case since before 2016 except for one little dip in late 2023.

It's been trending upward since 2025.

So I have no idea what metric you're using but no, this is objectively not the case.

Because fat std is rigid, impractical, and annoying.

In practice (e.g. Go) it’s actually pretty good and infinitely preferable to third party everything.

Yeah, it's annoying to have good support for dates in Java since 2014, instead of only getting it now like in JS.

Works just fine in Go.

I think we found the constituency that led to the present sorry situation.

That's rather rude.

If you're referring to my packages on npm, I joined way late to that game. This was also ~15 years ago.

This is a rather superlative and tunnel vision, "everything is a nail because I'm a hammer" approach. The truth is this is an exceedingly difficult problem nobody has adequately solved yet.

Another layer of AI tooling is the cost of spinning up your own version of some libraries is lowered and can be made hyper specific to your needs rather than pulling in a whole library with features you'll never use.

Tell me about it. Using AI Chatbots (not even agents), I got a MVP of a packaging system[1] to my liking (to create packages for a proprietary ERP system) and an endpoint-API-testing tool, neither of which require a venv or similar to run.

[1] Okay, all it does now is create, sign, verify and unpack packages. There's a roadmap file for package distribution, which is a different problem.

Really? I thought 'asking you every time they want to do something' was called 'security fatigue' and generally considered to be a bad thing. Yes you can concatenate files in the current project, Claude.

Yes it has to be combined with a robust way to allowlist actions you trust

Oddly, since I wrote that Claude 'auto' mode just landed and I built something with it (instead of 'dangeously skip') and it's working.

Agreed! Easy close/ban for me.

Parrot owner here. This doesn't surprise me at all. I'm actually a bit surprised they cared about the gyms!

This fits right into the ABC model of parrot psychology:

This is insane lol. I didn't know about this.

That’s why the memes about his new deer in headlights look is so funny

He sucked up to get his position and realized - through the fbi - that the cabinet and administration is crazy

Go somewhere else with this rhetoric.

Several asleep in their bowls lol. Can relate.

Gruvbox is oooollld, at least from my recollection. Been around at least since I started using vim maybe 15 years ago.

Maybe a dumb question but why break down production/hosting as a cost per employee?
