  • “If Aramark can afford to pay you $18.7 million in compensation and provide nearly $100 million in dividends for your wealthy shareholders,” Sanders wrote to Zillmer, “it can afford to pay all of your workers a living wage and not threaten to take away their jobs and their income with faceless Mashgin touchscreen computers.”

  • Could just be a misclick. There are some weird and/or pathetic folks around here, but there's also just many with huge thumbs.

    My estimate of the average "missed the upvote button and didn't notice" is maybe one in 40.

  • I agree. But I mean, WordPress and SquareSpace already did that for about 98% of web traffic. It was a big part of the .Com Boom and Bust.

    But we keep coming up with new stuff to build web software for, and there's still plenty of web developer jobs. And there's still so so many many shit websites.

    Today's AI can only remix, not do the new stuff. Maybe it'll get good enough to tackle the novel new stuff, someday. I doubt I'll live to see it, if it happens.

    The root of my crankiness is: If we're about to no longer need developers, I should be seeing widespread websites whose search, cart and checkout actually work correctly every time.

    The snake oil salesmen are bragging that the era of carpentry has ended, from on top of a wooden stage that is falling to pieces with each step.

    I would say, it can only get better, but it can really go both ways from here.

  • why do you guys always just move the goalposts?

    "Vibe coding" has a pretty specific definition, which includes not understanding the code. So writing tests, or correcting the code both disqualify a piece of work from being technically "vibe coded".
