I would say anyone who sees that happening is in denial, because all the proof out there points in the opposite direction.

May I ask what exactly AI provides that's worth so much to you? Because I wouldn't miss it at all if it disappeared tomorrow, and I'm pretty sure the society would be better off without it.

I suspect several wannabe billionaires couldn't write code even if their life depended on it, which explains why they're so enthusiastic about AI. And why they have been so enthusiastic about every other broken promise about repla

Unfortunately it seems like the more you use AI, the dumber you become; I suspect these discussions will get more and more dramatic until we have two camps that don't even understand what the other side is saying anymore.

The opposite is more true imo. It's the AI hype squad that are banking their future on AI magically turning into AGI; because, you know, it surprised us once.

Excellent choice of words there: new standard. I'm sure we are, but it doesn't look like an improvement for most people.

And you will keep dreading it for as long as you use them, since you learn nothing from solutions served on a silver plate.

You get an answer. If that's the answer, or even the best answer, is impossible to tell without doing the research you're trying to avoid.

I would say you thought about this solution because you are creative, something a computer will never be no matter how much data you throw at it. How did it help, really? By telling you your idea was no good? A less confident person might h

I'd argue they have no idea what they're doing, if this is the kind of value they're so excited about.

Amazed? Did you read the post? Have you read any of them? Everything people claim about them as far as writing code goes is delusional, this is clearly the wrong tool.

Insulting to whom, and why? It's objectively true in general from what I can see.

It's not about the money but the ego. The two are very difficult to separate though, I've met very few who could handle a lot of money without becoming corrupted.

What do you base that prediction on? Without a fundamental shift in the underlying technology, they will still just be guessing.

The opposite is true, they sometimes guess correctly, even a broken watch is right two times a day.

I generally have to maintain the code I write, often by myself; thousands of lines of uninspired slop code is the last thing I need in my life. Friction is the birth place of evolution.

Rust's type system gymnastics compared to most languages goes quite a bit beyond preference. I can't see the overlap at all with dynamic scripting languages, two completely different tools for completely different problems.

I imagine that even if we did, this article would still be way too long. I found some of it interesting, but there's just too many words in there and not much structure nor substance.

If putting people in that box makes you happy, go for it. Personally, I don't do -isms and I don't fit well into boxes.

I worked several different SW roles in Norway last year, it was the opposite; I now suspect the entire country is simply faking it until they run out of oil.

And how exactly is it going to learn when to push back and when not to? Those discussions don't generalize well imo. Randomly saying no isn't very helpful.

Me neither, 27 years and counting. It's not what's said either, it's the whole idea of someone turning my performance into a silly numbers game. I'm pretty sure performance reviews were invented for much the same reasons

Likewise; I actually enjoy writing code, and I'm pretty damn good at it; but I will rather take the role as manager myself than write code for most managers I've come into contact with. Many workplace issues can be solved, a shitt

If you're going to drag Linus and Stallman into this, at least read up on your history. A commercial Unix or Lisp Machine was quite a bit more expensive than $15/month. They both got shafted by companies that couldn't care le
