As long as I can turn them off, I don't care.

Issues like this are why I don't use ai agents for code. I don't want to sift through the bullshit confidently spewed out by the model. It doesn't understand anything. It can't possibly "understand my codebase"

I demand Trump's resignation, since he has conflicts over Russian ties.

all good and well if the ai agents actually solve the problem (not just delete your database or skip your tests) and do so at a lower overall cost (from the business perspective) - which also seems unlikely considering the studies showing:

another muppet has entered the arena no, you don't have to "get out of this career", but it's probably prudent to get out of these "ai-first" companies before the company (or at least department) implodes and y

Good luck telling your ai-infatuated friends I've just had a long (slightly frustrating) discussion that basically boils down to their faith being stronger than the numbers, claiming that the study is flawed, that it should be ignored

Looks like more ai slop, Jim. Just keep on drivin'

Ok, so all this tells me is that there is a point to creating llm models, or at least looking like you might - to take a slice of this crazy money being put on the burning pile. Because that's all I see here.

I wanted to read this, honestly. But 10s into being on the site... Bam! Popover pleading me to subscribe. Dismissed and... This isn't even the article. It's a header and one paragraph. I have to clock through. So I've already

There's a call to arms to step up and just start doing extra stuff for your corporate overlords. It's a trap. If you aren't appreciated now, you'll just be garnering more profit for the company, and they'll keep smi

Personally, my responsibility to my family has been one of, if not the primary reason I'm able to type this out. Many people will read happiness values out of suicide stats, not accounting for stubborn bastards like me who just keep pl

No, all the coverups and misdirection have caused people to mistrust the "medical experts" in anticipation of the next round of biological testing.

Really difficult to read the article when the navigation menu remains open over more than half the page (mobile) and doesn't close when tapping the X. Was this site vibe-coded?

Fast is good. Reliable is better. Functionality is king. Doesn't matter how fast it runs if I'm expecting it to crash out any time. Think of a game which gets 200fps but is unstable vs 120fps, but stable. Give me reliable function

Of course. Even if you're paying for it, you're still the product. You are training data.

Cool post. I highly suggest using templates from https://github.com/github/gitignore for your project as they tend to include a lot of files commonly found in them - eg .idea folders and so on.

cool if you want to stay with 30-year-old desktops like fluxbox, but I'm not about to give up my KDE when I have plenty of ram to spare - the plasmoids for system monitoring alone are simple to set up and useful. Yes, I know there are

even the primary assumption of the article: "ai gives you speed, but not direction" is misleading at best, disinformation at face value. LLM code generators give you the _illusion_ of speed when they are working, because you perso

Agreed - I find it a bit of a failing for an intelligent human to assign agency to a token-predictor that has neither personality nor understanding.

broken analogy - these tools have no personality or understanding - they are token predictors it's quite normal for people to assign agency to any number of things - it's how we have evolved with superstition and religion - but I&

CEOs were always irrelevant - they get all the glory for wherever the company ends up when it's good, they still get massive payouts when it's bad, and best of all, they don't do jack-fukn-shit. It's the ideal job for so

If he was tired before, this post must have brought on a coma. I do agree with the post, just I can't be bothered to generate so many words about a topic I'm actually tired of.

Looks like a similar idea to htmx. I'm all for any tooling which helps people to create stuff. My first job used vb6, and haters aside, it's as powerful as anything else on windows as it has full access to the win32 API. People go

No surprises. Math requires understanding, not rote autocompletion. LLMs are not suited to this task, or any requiring consistent precision.
