Mazda does a good job with screen placement. It's higher up on the dash, so you can see it clearly while looking straight ahead in normal driving position. Ie you don't have to take your eyes off the road to see it. Also, instea

Yes, Kirk had strong opinions and wasn't afraid to express them. And in his public tours, he always had an open mic to give anyone an opportunity to express opposing views. The context of Kirk's words you are quoting are actually

> it alleviates a lot of mental energy For me, this is the biggest benefit of AI coding. And it's energy saved that I can use to focus on higher level problems e.g. architecture thereby increasing my productivity.

It's such a tired trope.

And other species have killed countless humans, so in the way you're framing it, no humans are not.

> Oh, I am getting an authentication error. Well, meaybe I should just delete the token check for that code path...problem solved?! Kind of hyperbolic. If you prompt well, generally, it won't do stupid to that extreme.

The thing is most useful for me about types is it serves as forced documentation. I look at function signature with types and know what kinds of values it accepts and what it returns.

As a kid, when we went shopping at K-mart, I would hangout at the computer department while parents shopped and did stuff like this on the C64. hehe

Isn't it possible to feed that knowledge and context to it? Have it scan your product website and docs, code documentation, git history, etc?

I don't understand this sentiment. Sure, there might be people out there selling snakeoil, but that's the case for every domain. Does that mean we nobody should try to make apps to solve domain problems at all? Of course not. So

Here's some history I don't want to repeat: 1939, Nazi Germany starts fucking around and nobody does anything about it and then we have WWII on our hands. You've totally missed the point. It's precisely because we didn&#

Not in my observations. Where I am, people put their little dogs in strollers, dress them up with hair clips, etc and stroll them around while they're shopping at Macy's etc.
