Interesting tidbit about the author of this blogpost:

Many years ago, on the Deno Discord, this person was posting some really cool PR's they had done to contribute to core.

I checked out their profile, and it turned out to be a 13 year old child (or some similarly astonishing young age)

Neat to see they eventually got picked up by Deno, definitely one of the more talented devs I've ever run across.

"App development has always been harder than web development for LLMs."

What do they mean by "always"? Am I old? Are there people out there for whom LLMs aren't the new thing?
