but what if dude already did it (destroyed the world but it hasnt happened yet) before he quit? The rule of all games played in capitalism is there's a sucker born every minute. you can work a few years or your whole life before you r

If you are buying expensive hardware to run LLMs "on your own machine" you will soon find your ladder is on the wrong wall.

The scenario laid out is pretty dated. Most scrum shops would not permit this level of backstory anymore. Admittedly I have seen this happen in the old days but it wasnt usually very impactful. It was in places where people had too much

You can see the slop through the headline. No need to click. Posts like this are turning the internet into a trash pile. Nobody needs this slop, abandonware. Heres the template: "I" <--- prompted some LLM "built" &l

while the design aspects have been significantly accelerated and modularized, reducing costs and time to market, i am starting to get a "the cool kids all have their own chips" vibe now like maybe this has gotten too easy. Next

Hi, Im not an H1B but as someone who contracted for decades, it was pretty easy to get hired as a contractor after companies laid off. The entire reason I stayed a contractor was because after being an employee and living under constant th

My earnest, non-sarcastic advice to anyone considering learning to code is to find something else that interests you. While there is possibly some time left before the software industry implodes, hobbyist software will also get steamrolled

razzmatazz? Do you mean marketing lies and self aggrandizement for merely doing shoddy work?

I doubt you are addicted to information. I highly suspect like many users of digital technology who are able to consume near infinite streams of said, that you are like a wasteful software program "polling" these data sources hop

I have been a professional SWE for 30 years, I was also paid to write software when I was in middle school in the early 80s. I quit to do other things before high school. I am not pro AI nor anti AI. since machine learning is not an inte

As a SWE I would prefer offshore labor remain offshore. I have no problem with it.

This is kind of obvious but, definitely something that should be on people's minds as things keep getting weirder. It was bad enough when mobile phones were not forced to be dealt with as "general purpose computers", and inst

If you or I did this we would be put in jail. We have to disabuse govt of the notion that these agents are not under complete control of their owners. Open AI employees should go to jail.

I have a better question? Why would you trust OpenAI or any AI company, at all ? Or you crazy?

This article makes more sense if you remove the self congratulatory verbiage from it, and the cost rationale which I believe is zero. Most orgs used REACT native becuase they simply didnt have the interest or talent to build mobile apps usi

by BatchJob 17d ago
im not a fan of react native per se , but this reasoning does not add up. they are going to "delete an app" because they got some LLM to slop out 2 apps? The architect who wrote that is batshit and will be unemployed after this b

The lack of transparency and misinformation coming from the industry players and the NHTSA cast serious doubts on any "science" around autonomous car safety being possible. If it was really known the full extent of the cover up it

But what happens when the exec level managers are done with all these AI training sessions and rollouts and realize nothing has improved? What about the loss of productivity of developers who are forced to entertain tons of noise about AI a

I rather enjoy Finder as a power user and software engineer who stopped using windows 20 years ago. Although I do have to use it for work occasionally. Windows explorer is nothing to crow about. Its definitely worst of breed. It misrepr

The asteroid is the author and his horrible attitude towards software development. People giving in like this is an indication that they really didnt have much to offer in the first place and viewed "dev experience" as he puts it

Pair programming is one person coding, and one person watching.

In our current environment using AI, individual development also "doesnt scale", so this "doesnt scale", 2X. I think these proponents of AI have a very large burden on them to not just make this palatable for developers,

The AI doom is actually a happy path scenario. Collapse of entire economies will result on a scale that will eclipse the great depression. And it wont be because AI revolutionized anything. AI will become a dirty word to never be uttered

You cant really complain about the ecosystem if you insist on using an iPhone. What you think is interop is viewed by Apple as hostile and if they could find a way to sue you for it they would.
