Nice post! I really appreciate the analysis building on my post.

Not strictly related to what you wrote, but to speak a bit to what comes to mind when I read this:

  • Everything we do is building on the shoulders of giants. Just like EV makers didn't invent cars or batteries, a lot of the best stuff we do today is taking what we're giving and working with it as well as possible.
  • I think it's important to not take all the innovations and think they're inherently the right enabling technology. A lot of new shinies are not worth paying attention to.
  • I'm excited to show off a cool new thing that this app shell model enables— Will be sharing and open-sourcing the work on Monday. 🌱

EV or DEV?

EV stands for Electric Vehicles

But DEV too was built on the shoulders of giants, that's true for everything :D

Thanks, I just read the full sentence again and I realized it had nothing to do with DEV 🤦🏿‍♂️ .

Once again, thanks.
