Yes, this is the exact harmful idea that I was talking about. If this were true than there would be no 'reader mode' in browser. Or the reader mode would not modify the html at all. What you see in reader mode is the content layer

I think the (misuse of) so-called "separation of concerns" has been the most harmful thing that happened in web front end development. HTML can CSS are the same kind of concerns: the presentation layer. The idea that HTML is purel

If Hiroshima were the only big public nuclear plant around the world, then yes, the aftermath of Hiroshima would provide strong evidence either for or against nuclear power.

Because "the next generation is ruined" is always a popular sentiment. It has been with us for at least two thousand years, and it surely won't go away in our lifetime. When this AI era's devs grow older they'll com

It has always been like this. We actually know that the model performance has been mostly steady[0], but you cannot beat the notion of "evil companies secretly serving us worse models." The meme value is too strong. [0]: https:

Yeah, but in a professional setting, one's work is for someone else to review. We programmers have code review. Even very established authors have editors. I think it's wisdom instead of a weakness to admit your work needs reviews

Yeah. Everyone seems to forget that making memory was considered a bad business just a decade ago.

Depending on what an average user looks like in your mind. For me openclaw is the opposite of a tool designed for an average user. ChatGPT/Claude's web ui is much more like something for average user, tbh.

It's really hard to comprehend how this comment is relevant to the original article or my comment. It seems that you didn't read the whole article, the whole paragraph, nor the whole sentence you quoted. You only read one single p

I think we're going to witness a very inefficient system getting brought to work by policies alone. And I'm not even bashing EU. The closest example still working today is probably the US's Jones Act.

Which is why it failed though. It turns out people won't pay one dollar to read an article like "If AI writes your code, why use Python?" The situation is very unfortunate. We had perhaps once-in-a-lifetime chance to solve mi

I wonder what it means for Slang[0]. Presumably the point is that people want to do GPU programming with a more modern language. But now you can just use Rust... (Disclaimer: I like Slang a lot.) [0]: https://shader-slang.org

The "people" in your hypothetical story have been wrong the whole time. The correct attitude is: When AI can complete lines, you still have to read and understand the code. When AI can complete whole functions, you still have to r
