HN Discussion:
  • Tangential reflection on bikeshedding and how to avoid it by treating reversible decisions cheaply
  • Honoring the author's legacy and technical contributions like MD5crypt
  • Article's dismissal of LLM-assisted code review is out of touch with current reality
  • Author's claim that women aren't concerned about privacy is wrong and possibly sexist
  • Article deserves a careful re-read; initial reaction may be misleading
