Word! I just left a Java-only shop for pythonic pastures and the culture is so much more pragmatic and to-the-point.
Hopefully soon enough ML models can be fed millions of line of code and produce the functionally equivalent thousands...
- klibertp 3y agoThey're trained on billions of lines of code - most of them are not very good. I'm using Copilot, and the docstring/docs it suggests are so bad it hurts. If left alone, Copilot would happily generate those thousands of lines instead of helping reduce them to hundreds. It's still useful if given enough direction, but you need to be really careful not to overuse it or risk getting mistaken for a junior straight out of a bootcamp during code review :)
- tracker1 3y agoYeah... I've noticed about half of what it comes up with needs tweaking... I really enjoyed it for SQL schema writing though... especially many-many table creation.
