Things have been bad, but every company using its own bespoke LLM reimplementation of rsync and similar is so, so much worse.

It just reads like Linkedin slop. One melodramatic sentence after another. Consider collecting related thoughts into paragraphs.

Is this comment LLM generated? Have fun with 1000x more Buns that literally no one is using or maintaining. An entire software industry built on top of a burning garbage pile of crappy, dead code.

TBH, I'm mostly here out of spite at this point. It's unhealthy but I can't seem to stop rage-reading.

I'm pretty sure that "a ChatGPT call" will happily add or fudge stuff in your scanned PDFs. That sounds like a massive liability.

It's crazy that Musk is six million times more productive than your average tech worker! I'm certain he earned every cent by the sweat of his brow!

Same as other instances of cheating? A lot of students copy from each other and don't get caught. If anything, LLM-isms seem a lot more obvious, especially if the students are trying to avoid thinking or doing work. Anyway, I'm no

Except the people with guns are often aligned with regressive/authoritarian regimes. Which makes the problem much worse. Is there any country where guns are politically neutral? Switzerland, maybe? Certainly not the US.

> and really, what could I do if I were? I’m not sure what you mean. Have a no-AI policy and fail those who ignore it. If students lie, discipline them appropriately for cheating.

Seems like a mistake to rely on an archiving site that runs malware and changes the text of archived pages. However, there’s also not really anything better out there. The owner being some wily/sketchy Russian is even an advantage in s

I'd love to read a blog (or even sporadic social media posts on Mastodon/Bsky/etc.) about this kind of stuff.

Do you really not understand why someone might want a blanket AI ban? Or is this a performative comment?

What does a CEO actually do for 60 hours a week? I seriously doubt they’re working harder than the average SWE in the trenches, even though they probably think they are. From my vantage point, C-suite jobs are basically hired nobility.

All the more reason to reject AI outright and form human-exclusive enclaves.

If you find it, let us know. I want to add something similar to my projects (until an effective anti-LLM license emerges, if ever).

I don't know? It's an agent, an automated contractor, a black box that produces work. When you pay someone to help write your app, you don't call that an "abstraction."

AI is not an abstraction. I still can’t believe engineers are making this basic, definitional mistake.

I mean, AI is necessarily pushing your speech towards its baked-in human soup average of what a speech should sound like. That's not a good thing unless you're doing a corporate presentation. Personally, I find the idea of soundin

Maybe just don't make the t-shirt at all. You're going to put off half your audience with your slop logo anyway.

What is "the top" anyway? See punk rock. You don't have to be the best performer, best singer, best songwriter, best anything to have an entire generation's eyes on you.

Pretty much all major tech companies today are horribly bloated and mostly metastasizing instead of innovating. I'm not sure how 20% increased productivity will help in any way with that. If anything, it might accelerate enshittificati
