I have truly loved using Jetbrains IDEs for Java, Go, Typescript and have subscribed to the full toolkit at personal expense for many years (it was the grandfathered pretty cheap price that ends this year). But when trying to use it for Python, the code intelligence was so poor I finally gave VSCode a try. It was much better at Python analysis at the time though I assume Pycharm has improved since then. But I'm not going back - Jetbrains still tends to have better refactoring, good features like running individual Go table tests, etc. But it's a killer feature for me in a team to be able to share a workspace or settings JSON file in a repo to get all developers on the same page. .idea has never worked well and I suspect most people assume it won't work.
If Jetbrains reimagines their settings persistence story, I'd be happy to give that a try since otherwise it's quite great still!
Do get the sentiment when looking at where Amazon's performance is going, but maybe mistargeted. There's definitely always something grey about what chairmen do, but given he doesn't run Amazon anymore (nothing grey when comparing to Zuckerberg/Meta) he can be free to work on things he wants to right?
So as far as I can tell, the article isn't satire. Am I the only one that came away with a great explanation of why California High-Speed rail is indeed dead?
After trying Starlink on a plane over the Pacific, I would say yes it is worth that price if it were indeed the condition. In practice, it seems to still be quite easy to criticize even while using it.
Are people generally concerned with security for stdio transport? Personally I can't see a use case for it since it, but wonder if I'm missing anything.
For the others, they're based on http so I imagine any existing authentication mechanism should be co-hostable, e.g. the callback url would be served next to the sse / messages endpoint.
Then it's just transporting credentials to the MCP handlers - I am expecting the `params._meta` field to become the bag that acts like HTTP headers.
Though anyways agree with the article being mediocre as it seems an unhelpful critique of oauth itself with no real relation to MCP other than to invoke clicks.
Yup, and that pushes a nationalistic agenda even if not intentional. We're exceptional, so everyone else is mediocre and such border policies don't seem that strange? IMO a historical example of where being exceptional led us is the Trail of Tears.
Moving in the direction away from exceptionalism and more towards doing as other countries do is a simpler story toward reaching cooperation / peace than the alternative. Since if you don't, then you have to force your ideals on others, or every conversation just ends with "but we're exceptional and you aren't".
