Dissolving an LLC is a in ideal case a multi month process. It's often easier and cheaper to just keep the LLC as zombie instead of trying to dissolve it.
I don't even see much reason to use Cursor. I am used to IntelliJ IDEA, so I just downloaded the Claude Code plugin and basically now I use the IDE only for navigating in the code, finding references and reviewing the code. I can't even remember the last time I wrote more than 2 lines of code. Claude Code has catapulted my performance at least 5x if not more. And now that the cost of writing test is so minimal I am also able to achieve much better (and meaningful!) test coverage too. The AI agents is where the most productivity is.
I just create a plan with Claude, iterate over, ask questions, then let it implement the plan, review, ask to do some adjustments. No manual writing of code at all. Zero.
Maybe I'm holding it wrong, but the finer aspects of a codebase it still messes up. If I ask it to implement some weird thing off the beaten path it gets lost. But I completely agree at the test part. I actually test much more now since it's so easy!
I am pretty sure in this case even Claude or ChatGPT would give them the correct answer quickly or at least it would point them to the right direction (the busy-timeout pragma) with 5 minutes of work.
This is not the case of debit cards in Europe. Debit cards are tied to bank accounts. Most people only have a debit card or don’t even know what a credit card is (or what the difference is). We just call them “cards”.
You can buy debit (or more accurately prepaid) cards in supermarkets in Europe too (which is a big and relatively diverse place, so just because that is/was not a thing in the countries you're familiar with doesn't mean it didn't exist).
I have a 10km walk with some elevation in the nearby woods, I do it several times a week if possible (it takes me ~2 hours). I listen to podcasts during the walks. A few times a months I try to do a fast pace ~20km walk in mountains. Currenly I don’t have issues going 30km fast pace without stopping. A few times a year I do multi-day long distance walks (with some 50-60km days).
It seems to bring me a lot of inner peace and better sleep.
I don't think it's either "vibe coding or nothing" choice you have to make with AI. I am part of a team working on a complex Kotlin backend. I have been experimenting with Claude recently and I have been amazed how well it can pick up the existing patterns used in the project and create new code if given reasonable instructions. And it writes great tests too (something that would take me a lot of time and kill my motivation). It has been a great productivity boost for me. Of course we review the code in PRs, we test it but in the end it does the job in less time and saves me from doing tedious work.
Exactly. The compression level of DNA is magnitudes better than anything we can even come close to. DNA usually doesn't even contain specific counts (like 5 fingers on hand) or sizes of organs and so on - these are given by the processes that run in parallel and cause the cells to hit spatial / chemical / electrical or other limits. It's like putting lots of house builders on specific places where the house should be and each one would just keep building a wall until the he hits another one. There is no compressed house plan, it's a compressed "engine" that builds the result.
Comparing it to machine code on CD/DVD might make more sense then. Machine code where every line has been hand-optimised by nature's hackers over 500 million years.
And in that context, hundreds of MBs is a heck of a lot of complexity.
That brings back memories of me using an XPS 13. In theory it was a great notebook, but in real world it has lots of annoying issues. I then bough a Macbook and never looked back.
