There are no existing AI tools that guarantee correct code 100% of the time. If there is such a tool, programmers will be on path of immediate reskilling or lose their jobs very quickly.

Of course people would criticize the port placement. For a company that prides itself for having very good UX and "it just works", the decision to put the port on the bottom is indefensible.

I disagree about it being marketed only to non-power users. It can't even compete on ergonomics vs everyday mouse. Non-power users have complained about getting RSI because of it.

No developer wants to being treated as a code monkey and I bet no PM would want to waste time watching someone type out code that they don't understand.

Financial education is useless if you don't have capital. Most poor people are just earning enough to live day by day. Getting financial literacy would help little.

I don't blame developers treating CSS like a target language for AI to generate. Most sites are just CRUD. Unless they are working on a site that requires creative styling, people just want to get it over with and work on the "rea

In this age of LLMs and AI, the incentive to master CSS is even lower.

> Recently, upgrading from v3 to v4 in a Next.JS project, which was supposed to be a no brainer, turned out to be a four hour ordeal. You might think that is too long but that amount of time to migrate IMO is short. What I am dealing now

Another thing is to know when to stop. AI can endlessly refine your sentences if you let it.

Proofreading is easily done with an editor. I think AI is much more useful for giving critic and advice on how you write your sentences. Setting the tone, refining the main idea, pointing out redundancies are some of the things that I find

It's really sad if you think about it. Nowhere in time has freedom of speech been enshrined and creation been easier. But we just can't seem to take advantage of all the freedom and tools that we have at our disposal.

People use their phones much more than their laptops/PCs. Think it boils down to supply and demand.

I have read somewhere that the money Google pays Apple for being the default is a relatively big chunk of Apple's profit margins. If true, then it is understandable why Apple is fighting hard for it.

For some people, having no AI is a feature.

I would guess that the pushback is more about the possible economic imbalance that will happen and less about being replaced on the actual effort of coding.

Interesting. I want to try to this for my Magic: The Gathering cards since it is a pain manually inputting cards into my collection when buying the in bulk.
