I understand the basic arguments—YouTube’s rise in short-form content, faster dopamine hits, and lower expectations placed on creators. But even if we set short-form content aside, the contradiction still stands. You’ll find people calling the new Avatar movie boring, even if they pirated it and watched it for free, while those same people will happily spend hours watching livestreams where someone reacts to content or talks about nothing in particular, day after day, for an entire year. How can Avatar be dismissed as boring, yet that kind of content is considered engaging? I would understand if it was a Wikipedia like scenario were all those hours of User generated content just lead to better quality content being produced by process of selection but that isn't really the case with youtube.

So does documentation for programming languages matter anymore (at a the lower levels)? Sure if a programming language has better documentation the LLM can understand it better and give better suggestions but on a personal level if I'm learning a language any decent LLM should be enough right?

I have heard it said that sometimes great ideas are killed by start-up culture i.e. pressuring it to grow too quickly and take risks in hopes of 100x-ing the investment. Is it not possible to take these failed startups and turn them into small profitable businesses without the start-up pressures.

I think the new age coda doc looks interesting, but if I invest the time in learning it and becoming a developer what kind of job offers can I look at realistically speaking.
