I love the website

All they're doing is giving it training data

Atleast according to average daily watch time reported in 2019, Netflix was at 164 million hours and YouTube was at 1 billion. I doubt that ratio has changed much since then

All the things you've mentioned if there's no bugs to fix sound really boring to do. They're also high effort, low reward (most of the time). I'd rather do something else that I enjoy, than do any of that since I'd get paid the same amount if I did it or not. Not everyone works on something that they're hyper passionate about, or that is very useful to people, to the extent that they'd work on it if they don't have to

It's a good thing different people have different preferences - cleaning up a gnarly, messy old codebase so it doesn't just work, but actually shines, is some of what I love to do most!

Yes that's exactly my point. Different people have different preferences so it's strange when the parent comment mentions that their mind boggles when other engineers say they don't have anything they want to do ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Thats more a question of having a balanced team size, ownership and accountability.

I've also had anecdotal experience in agreement with this. There have been many studies on this but most of them have a similar small sample size. Wonder why it hasn't been conducted with a larger sample size yet, or maybe it has but didn't find anything so it's not being posted on HN ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Remember Google glass? Besides, I think new technologies are generally thought of conservatively by the majority and will only have a couple of supporters in the initial stages.

What limitations is the author actually talking about? I don't understand

If you’re on an H1B, you must be employed by a company. If you get fired or quit, you must find a job within a couple of months or leave the country.

In the IT industry though - at this time - that is probably not a huge risk.

Its more of a question of status. If youre one month away of being sent back to India how can you feel good about yourself.

It's more about the restriction against quitting to work on your own thing, because you have to be gainfully employed by a company with a few restrictions such as the field. I know several people in the States who are miffed about that in particular, and are considering returning (or moving to Canda, where getting a PR is significantly easier) for that reason alone.

Is there an actual correlation between ASD and developer output?

Proving this would require an objective measure of developer output.

No.

That is something your phone can do for you without the need for a disposable chip

There's plenty of ways you can 2FA without a smartphone, look into security keys
