Shhhh, let this one go. So many people don't get optimization and why it is needed that I'll take anything we can get. Hell, I routinely see people saying no one needs to know C because python calls C in "the backend" (who the fuck writes "the backend" then?). The more people that can learn some HPC and parallelism, the better.
Yeah because AI writes better code than me. I mean I've been coding for a year, including my super intensive coding bootcamp (we coded for 5 hrs a day! You can learn anything in two weeks), and got a FAANG job, so I'm pretty much an expert. We use AI to write all our code! Kinda bummed I'll be replaced but you know, I'll just move onto the next hustle. What y'all think about AR?
I wrote the blog mostly as an answer to people who ask us why we're choosing to use Rust. We're not using it for performance reasons, but it's also not the true that the performance difference is entirely insignificant.

i have been recipient of many many many many many many DMs from startups asking for upvotes at 12.01am PT. this erased whatever respect i had left for PH. when you make this pointless is when i will pay attention to it again.
As suggested in my comment below it should accumulate the launch posts for 24 hours then publish all in a big randomized list. Makes no sense that the time you post is a factor in the process.
yeah exactly. mistakes happen, they were definitely too influencer-brained in the launch, but its how you handle the feedback that shows your mettle.
still doesnt make pear an investable idea, but the founders showed some humility/ability to read the room here.
conversely, people who dunked on -them- too much showed either their lack of knowledge on open source/startup norms, or their ability to disingenuously ignore that for internet points, and provided many opportunities to be muted.
Here is a clear as day example of a startup who were completely reckless and indifferent to (a) the principles of open source and (b) the concerns of the developer community.
And instead of criticising them you've turned the tables and now the fault is with people like me who are doing this for internet points. Instead of defending what underpins the entire software industry and has contributed so much value to the world.
