I hate I can't tell if you're joking without checking posting history lol

It's a real term. It's a Agile metric for measuring how much a team is shipping over time. Whether or not the whole concept is wanky bs depends on who you ask lol. It's useful if you measure it over time, not so much otherwis

None of the exTwitter people thought that if you talked to them. Sometimes, people talk about what they hope will come true. I dunno what to tell you.

That's not a conspiracy theory, that's intended behavior. You want your reports to feel safe to tell you things, you (or they) can always shift to written later.

> As far as negative feedback - yes, but isn't that what quarterly/bi-yearly/yearly reviews are for? Absolutely not, no. The opposite of that. You never want to hear negative feedback for the first time at an annual revi

Yeah, that's what I thought lol

Oh really? Link them.

Waymo heavily relies on real humans to get their robots unstuck. They also rely on extremely detailed mapping data, which is why they're only in a few cities. Tesla has been a couple years away from FSD for, what, like ten years now? I

Nah. There are for-real consequences to that sort of thing and it's so not worth it. Early stage startups, maybe, but most of those are three failsons in a trenchcoat. That sort generate more PR than revenue.

> Then the rules should enumerate all the ways It's nice to want things, but rules are much squishier in real life. There's rarely any truly bright line.

Yeah, but the idiots had to put in effort before, which was difficult for them for obvious reasons. Now they have a cheerful idiot robot who can actually do the idiot things they dream up and it tells them how brilliant they are.

No, Duo as in Cisco Duo IAM. It was a "please do not fuck around with a central pillar of our security infrastructure just because you can" thing lol.

Kind of, but not really. Those things are hard when you're learning, but they're pretty trivial after some experience. I almost always have a pretty good idea of what I'm making and how I'm going to make it before I star

If people just wanted to make their own stuff and have fun, that's fine. Knock yourself out. However, it's launched this enormous tidal wave of mediocrity that emboldens the dumbest people to do the dumbest shit and make it my p

> As a maintainer of a project you should be able to tell if something is slop. Of course they can, the problem is they have to spend time digging through a ton of garbage looking for the ones that aren't low quality slop. If you&#x

Because you're not just dicking around for funsies? It's fine if nobody uses your shit, but it's not fine if you have actual customers who depend on you. Maybe this is a paid feature that we're going to charge money for.

How does that help? People gladly post slop PRs under their real names.

by habinero 4mo ago
That doesn't solve the volume or quality problem. LLMs can split one giant PR into 50 smaller PRs just as easily and "well-documented" isn't something you can determine automatically. Why is it so hard to just accept tha

by habinero 5mo ago
No? You do that to make sure everyone understands and agrees on what to build. Writing code is the easy part. Figuring out what your new feature or product should do is the hard part.

> Another possibility is to release the source code when the game reaches its end of life. You might not have permission to, if it uses a lot of third party libraries.

Yeah, VSCode will rename functions and vars perfectly, using the language semantics. It'll handle changing imports in python if you change file names. Like you said, it's basically instant.

Yeah, I would absolutely classify that as "questionable taste" lol.

Poor people care about their kids, too. They're just struggling to keep a roof over their heads and food on their plates instead of worrying about what college their kids are going to get into.

I bought one last year and I love it, it really is a well designed and lovely system to use. Here's hoping the price hike doesn't kill it.

What? Those things were absolutely not criticized in the same way. Most of the time they weren't criticized at all lol. The problem isn't about it being "easier", it's about people who want the praise and attention
