If you're creating technical debt, you're creating technical debt. That has nothing to do with AI/LLMs. If you can't understand what the tool spits out either; learn, throw it away, or get it to make something you can un

Yes, and frankly you should be spending time writing large integration tests correctly not microscopic tests that forgot how tools interact. It's not about lines of code or quality it's about solving a problem. If the problem crea

99% of comments are not needed as they just re-express what the code below does. I prefer to push for self documenting code anyway, never saw the need for docs other than for an API when I'm calling something like a black box.

That's disingenuous or naive. Almost nobody decides to expressly highlight the section of code (or whole files generated by ai) they just get on with the job when there's real deadlines and it's not about coding for the sake

And Canada is entirely without blame for deciding to enrage an idiot. It's clear here would enforce tariffs he made it clear he would and did it to China and certain countries that decided to not engage. Let me guess the EU is now evil

Yes of course because we should all be focused on what trump said 30s ago. Anyone with half of the common sense they were born with should know this guy is 90+% bluff but takes the old school American approach of shock and awe to bring peop

Fantastic if true. I'm sure there's a few catches or weed already have them back ordered globally but frankly anything that normalises using these self heating rocks to boil water gets my vote :)

Please point to where America has put boots on the ground, spilled blood, taken ships hostage or violated blockades, critically since trump has come to office? (I get to call this condition since you're complaining about tariffs and cu

Don't worry they're just upset that the cheap toys from foxcon suicide plants are going to get out of reach. Once everything dies down the people complaining will find something else to moan about. Prices will normalise regardles

No assuming that there is no next step is idiocracy... And also the weakness of 4yr political planning in the west. The next step is to work around tariffs where you can and need to which forces innovation and jobs on both sides of the bord
