Computers can code for you, but it's not a reason to forget about your mastery goals. The printing has been around for ages now, still people master calligraphy.

Seeing many people using AI to prototyping and ordering boards, I am curios if JLCPCB, PCBWAY and the other prototyping services has upticks in their orders. It would be great to see some numbers.

I hope this is a joke and you really don't consider this as such. It's in fact opening up too many opportunities to us humans. It's never been this easy to acquire information and accomplish things.

I have been using Gemini, Claude, ChatGPT, Grok (whatever is available) to create esp32 boards. As I am very new into this field, I mostly use them to query about schematics, ICs, routing, kicad, electronic foundations and so on. They are g

It's not a transplantation, as it implies a separate donor. Is it not?

Perhaps the title needs to clarify the source of the transplanted tissue as the same patient.

Well I have to agree on both counts. Perhaps what "feel frustrating" needs to be agreed upon. I took it as I would not like to do this as I feel it to be kind of distasteful, not as I would take this but the code would be confusin

That's my point. It should not be frustrating. It's part of the job. A responsibility a professional should be ready for. On the part of vibe coded code, it can be a "bad code base" and readily so it's very understa

Examples: - When you are working in a team, you always take responsibility of the code your team mates has written, (review, maintain, bugfix, extend, refactor..) - Sometimes organizations reorg and you land in owning already written

Perhaps they shouldn't be allowed to school until 16? School and other kids can expose theirs to many detrimental things.

"As a professional developer, I would find it very frustrating to have to debug someone else's code and also be held responsible for that code." Are you really a professional programmer? A very basic responsibility for many p

For me it was related to some benign brain mass'es arm touching my ear nerve. This causes me some hearing loss, and also it was causing tinnitus. However I realized tinnitus directly correlated with my blood pressure. So If I control m

AI writes faster, so the rate it incurs tech debt is proportionally higher. However it's ability to have large context kept on memory compared to humans is also a key component fighting against it. These are occasionally forgotten when

That's not enough as the abstraction of hardware and software has increased exponentially. Not only that expectations are more. Just building for a definitive set of single configuration is not enough. Any software needs to run on Amd6

I did vibe coded one, where It downloads images from my (currently defunct) immich server album, dithers them for 4 color inky display, downloads the weather data and display them. It's a fun little one. I wish the inky only had a &quo

You can not trust human output without verification either. That's why you have tests, qa, staging envs, A/B tests..

I am with you on this. I am a good, and experienced infra engineer. And I feel like - no know that - llm can probably replace me if a good operator handles that.

The are lots of small "oh shit" moments for me. First interaction with an llm was already magical. "This shit can emulate understand language, find a solution, answer it into words " . Then came realisations it's

You are paying restaurants for food to be prepared in the way you want. But this is not the same. Someone created some content the way they want. You haven't ordered that content. And you complain it's not prepared the way you lik

I have trouble understanding this. I don't see anyone complaining that we use microwaves and ovens instead of going for lit wood to cook or using search engines instead of crawling through libraries, or using Google Maps instead of usi

I am very new to the crafts and I can attest trying to solder smd stuff, with correct equipment is way easier than soldering 2 wires correctly together. And I also kinda hate QFN like packages where you can’t see the pads.

Aren't we already at a worse place, where largest companies on earth doesn't have any support and you need to have a HN following to get their attention?
