I'm not surprised DHH takes Musk's side because frankly they're very much alike.<p>Elon Musk's future likely does look much like DHH's present. There was a time when the hype around Ruby on Rails was so great, people were declaring programming is dead as a profession, as CEOs can directly write a few lines of English and the framework does everything else (oddly reminiscent of modern AI prompting, RoR's APIs always strived to be "English-like" DSLs, which produce very attractive demos that fall apart in real applications).<p>And now DHH is just angrily waving fists at clouds for how the media is "catastrophizing" and how Elon's odds are improving all the time, claims that will both look ridiculous when we look back, as Twitter is losing money at a pace where soon he'll have to sell more TSLA shares, or go bankrupt.<p>And yeah, DHH, I am entertained. Question is why aren't you? Why are you complaining, exactly? The rebranding is dumb by any objective measure. And we're free to say that.
