Incredible how we can claim productivity increases when its either Claude or Github shitting the bed every other day. It must even itself out to a net neutral gain in the long term.

Claude Code has captured so much mind share, it doesn’t even matter. Cursor is absolutely cooked.

You're fighting a battle you can't win. Doesn't care what you think about those using LLMs, they will outproduce you and in corporate environments, shipping things is paramount. If I can ship 5 more things simultaneously wi

FWIW, I was just like you but then completely gave in and found enjoyment in the act of simply ideating and shipping. The gap now between idea and implementation is so small. At first I was depressed but now I'm in the acceptance phase

So they move to the complete opposite end of the spectrum where not three years ago Texas was human trafficking migrants to other states? Quite the change of hearts.

I still put my pants on the same way, eat the same food, talk to my friends and family the same way. I drive to the grocery store, pick out the same food and cook food at the same home. Talk to my kids, take them to activities and watch Blu

Because we're paying attention? A lot of "smart" people are lost in the AI sauce, grandstanding that they are going to change the very fabric of society. Generally leading experts in other fields are not making the same hyper

Heat, maintenance...it's obvious if you think about it for 2 seconds.

I remember when I worked at HuffPo and they started doing this. I called out the org and they all just shrugged.

As someone who has been hiring the past six months, the candidate pool has been absolutely abysmal. Slop resumes, misrepresentations, bad interviewing skills, etc. I'm baffled at the other end at how much inbound crap there is.

As a longtime Scala lover, I’m so happy to see this. Everyone in here hemming and hawing about version incompatibilities, build tooling and such conveniently forget the warts of other languages and their ecosystems. Scala is an incredible l

They voted R, there's no way to make the distinction on why they voted.

I would not be making generalizations on any group based on what spews out of Reddit.

Let them use AI and then fall on their faces during exam time - simple as that. If you can't recall the theory, paradigm, methodology, whatever by memory then you have not "mastered" the content and thus, should fail the clas

Makes no sense at all imo, especially when you consider the origin story and melting pot ethos that made the US what it was in the first place.

That’s not what they ruled.

Can, if we had a functioning Congress that actually passed material laws. We’ve been trying to pass immigration reform for the last couple of decades.

The line is always going to be going up somewhere. I’d rather it be where I live than not.

The US cannot afford, demographically, to curtail immigration, illegal or otherwise. Simple fact is the US needs more people because we’re under the replacement rate.
