That sounds right to me. I actually think I enjoy coding more now than in the past, writing function names and letting the IDE write the code itself.

I've never seen GH Copilot use "tmpVar1" and "tmpVar2" as variable names or "ijk" for-loops. That is a step above the average human programmer as-is. The dream is that you write the method names and the A.

Fun is a subjective metric. You can turn around the argument by saying it brings one joy to find new solutions to old problems with GH Copilot. And so on. Personally, when in a flow state, I can't be interrupted. Eventually, it goes aw

Hating each offer to the point of violence? Sure. But that’s now his this works IRL. That’s why there is the common movie trope of the wife leaving her husband gif the therapist. People divorce cus they “fall out of love” and, since society

"If you just waste it on like a car, it’s just a lack of imagination. Mine was the decision to write books and attempt to make a living there." Becoming a novelist is as cliche as trading in your car and wife for newer models. But

IRL, divorce is devastating for everyone involved, especially the children. I believe therapists diagnose divorce and breakups in general so often because it eases their conscience a bit. You can see this same reasoning with abortion and su

I don't ned to recalibrate anything. What I need to do is stop arguing about UFOs and electric cars in this forum. The Fermi Paradox is based precisely on the time and scale of the universe. "he Fermi paradox can be asked in two w

Yeah, that was my same take. To be counter-culture, according to this article, you have to be a progressive furry goth hacker, who prays to St. Greta of Climate Change and Karl Marx, puts pronouns in their bios, and moonlights as an Antifa

Why does everything you imagine look like dust? Shouldn't civs advanced enough to build Dyson Spheres have figured out building materials better than those in the Titanic? That pressure is similar to or stronger than those found in out

Assuming there is such a thing as other civilizations in the universe, which there is no proof of. Big Filter should leave space debris.

"Disagree and commit" is just a euphemism for "shut up and code". The only opinion that matters is whoever the highest paid person in the room happens to be. Just gotta pick your battles and figure out if the time is rig

Sheeran writes basic commercial pop music. Maybe if he tried learning some minor chords or scales and tried shifting tempos, he wouldn't get popped with so many copyright claims. "There’s only so many notes and very few chords use

Sam Altman said that he doesn't like the open-air fentanyl markets either. I dunno how these ppl avoid catching a heart attack from cognitive dissonance.

If everything were consciousness, chat GTP would be a digital Ouija board. But we've already seen that the computer, like George Washington, can't tell a lie: you can ask the chatbot "how" it would take over the world, b

So far, Chat GPT has failed the Turing Test worse than the Ouija board, which, in my experience, didn't fail at all. This plus the Fermi paradox gives me the creeps. It raises the uncomfortable question of "free will".

Yeah, this argues for the theory (which I think is correct) that A.I can't reach consciousness since there is a lot of non-symbolic thinking going on (this study says approximately 25% percent). Does Chat GPT dream of electric sheep?

So if you can't afford to get some office space in an early startup, you're doomed. "Bootstrapping considered harmful". Where did they clone/download these people?

Hah, yeah. Classic Freudian slip. The best endorsement for remote work right there.

No one will fall apart and burst into tears because of an adverb they read in the mountain of documentation we have to read to get the job done. Navel-gazing of the highest order.

This post is a shallow public display of faux moral superiority from the language police. I miss Linus Torvald's legendary snark and the epic flame wars of yesteryears.

This is basic English grammar, something you should have learned in grade school.

If you completely disagree, keep in mind “completely” is also an adverb. Some frameworks sell simplicity (setup, maintenance) as a feature, so that adverb would be fitting. But this is just infantilizing and a lot of people (maybe a univers

I was thinking a paper cut meant something like rough-looking code that works. If we are talking about bugs, that's a different story. Some bugs are more important than others.

It's an improvement because it cut out all the adverbs. The tone of the essay is an unmistakable virtue signal. It tries to correlate the virtue signal with quality improvement, which is either cringe or disingenuous.

You shouldn't use "simply" because it's an adverb and an overused one, but this mumbo-jumbo about feelings is giving me the creeps. The example given reads better because it cuts out the adverbs. I'm assuming Gramma
