vibe coded crawlers run by morally bankrupt trend chasers aren't going to be the most well engineered systems you come across.

Most of these crawlers are probably AI generated in the first place, and AI generated code is garbage. Thats a good enough explanation in my opinion. Source: someone who reviews AI generated PR's on a daily basis

Privileged workers are the ones who's employers are paying for AI while still keeping them employed in the first place. The end goal of every AI initiative is to lower headcount, if your employer is forcing AI usage you are digging you

I just cleaned my cats litter box and that was cooler than AI. I have no idea how people can spend 40 hours a week interacting with those sycophantic random number generators, its like having the most annoying linkedin influencer you can im

Spare me the dang cosplay. You can choose to rationalize the actions of fascists all you want, but the rest of the world is not obligated to respect you for it. In my country we have a word that roughly translates to “lackey to those in pow

Nothing at all, I just think its a rather arbitrary distinction, especially when you consider heuristic methods like autocomplete that have been around for ages.

Speaking as someone living in Asia who visits the US every year or so, you are falling more and more behind and I don’t see a way for you to catch up without a drastic societal reformation. The EV market alone should scare the average citiz

So “create an express app boilerplate, make no mistakes” requires attribution but “npx express-generator myapp” does not? The bar for “writes code for you” is very low.

Like "code generator IDE plugins". There are hundreds of them for just about every IDE you can think of. I can't tell if this is a serious question or not, but metaprogramming/generators are decades old concepts that hav

I think you misunderstood what I meant by "Star Wars". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strategic_Defense_Initiative

How funny will it be when the US economy collapses because of all the money poured into AI at the expense of pretty much everything else only for China to come out ahead anyways. Personally I hope this is China's "Star Wars"

"Voting works, you just need to compromise your beliefs and pretend to be someone that hates everything you believe in to participate!" Hallmark of a healthy democracy.

Good thing that there isn't a court in the United States that exists solely to make those kinds of distinctions and revise previous interpretations of the law in order to apply them to an evolving legal landscape. Flock cameras using f

Someday soon we are going to have a rogue agent or "civilization" do real harm. When that happens I hope people wake up to the danger they face and hold these people accountable. Of all the people in the world that I can think of

The term is "nationality", it describes a person's legal bond and citizenship tied to a specific country, usually gained by birth or naturalization. If you have never heard of that before then someone failed you during your e

In American style representative democracy there certainly are places where voting is useless depending on your political affiliation.

Nonsensical drum circle naivety. Go to some of the poorer parts of the world and live the life of a subsistence farmer for a while. There is a reason people move to cities, and it generally involves their children not starving to death.

I'm sure they did. Buddhist's view everyday existence within samsara (the cycle of rebirth) as inherently marked by dissatisfaction, pain, and impermanence. Those kinds of beliefs reflect the lived reality of our ancestors.
