HTML documents can't be damaged when they're in an <iframe>.
@jonty alas, it's both being able to divide, but also being left with whole parts afterwards
the number of people who actually need software to work, and are willing to pay for it, is a very small number

i mean, for startups quality isn't as much of an issue, they actually lose less money when the software falls over, so in some ways it's healthier

i lamented to a coworker "we only had performant software because computers were slow, and had quality software because distribution was expensive and neither of those are true anymore"

meanwhile, as investor story time moves away from "we only hire the best and smartest 10x" to "i generated 70,000 loc before breakfast" it feels like the last remaining social or market forces for quality are evaporating

I spent my time trying to make it better. Not just write code, but find better or at least different ways to do so. Simpler, cleaner, more general, more comprehensible.

What's happening today is a complete repudiation of everything I was trying to achieve.

kinda funny that gitlab are looking at github tanking and say to themselves "we could do that 200%"
