I have to say I finally "caved in" to LLMs last month. While I still think Copilot is useless, I recently had a very complex code that did a lot of crazy bit-flipping and xoring, and I had no idea what is it doing, so I threw it t

In 30 years, people will be nostalgic for TikTok. Some people might even be nostalgic for Bing. (People are nostalgic for Clippy after all.) In other words.... you are not nostalgic for the thing itself. (The thing kind of sucks.) You are n
