Anthony is also the maintainer of the deadsnake ppa, if you were searching for reasons to love him more.

Believe he’s the same person who won’t allow pyflakes to support # noqa, because it’s “opinionated.”

As if dropping that word is some sort of justification. I don’t know what the opinion is! Worse is better?

It does.

But again ancient greeks complained writing would make people deskill their memory abilities.

And it did.

Yet we don't regret it.

We called it for 20 years, all geeks in the world singing in unisson that if you don't pay you are the product.

And people still accepted the ToS and fed the machine all their data.

So make the web garbage for short time gains.

That's why we can't have nice things.

I get the feeling but what altenrative would you prefer?

I do want my phone to just go again without complaining without a crash, after all.

I want Richard Dawkins or David Attenborough to narrate my code for me.

For me it has to be Majel Barrett-Roddenberry

dunno tbh. When I hear HAL in 2001, it's more neutral but more scary. I have no idea. that tells a lot.

5 times the price of it in my country. Ouch

It's not about not finishing as much as it is about letting something in unfinished state.

You can finish what you are doing right now, and start something else to get a clear view of the next step. Or take something you want to fix, and put a breakpoint it it and plenty of print, to make it sure nothing works and the day after you know where to start.

It's all about breaking the inertia.

But if you want your win, you can have your win.

Same. My local astk runner does the heavy lifting.

Was that a typo for task or is 'astk' a punnily named task runner in its own right?

(sorry for the dumbass question but it could go either way)

If you learn how to build a castel with a very specific era look and feel as an architect, would you not then be likely hired to build a similar castel elsewhere?

I Do this for a living, ave for 20 years. I've designed many "castles" with similar looks and feels, similar materials, they work similarly.

But I've never built the exact same castle, with the exact same Floorplan, with the exact same plans. That's what I'm highlighting that I've seen several times.

A cool aside, I love this song by Watsky called "cardboard castles". Having done this for 20 years (build "cardboard castles") I identify with it.

Do you have any portfolio of those castles? I am quite interested in the long future for maybe building one

Lots of handwaving in this article, and doubtful forecasting.

The truth is we have no idea what will happen. This would be obvious to anybody whole lived through the .com bubble.
