We will imprison these slop addicted monke brains and start new academic regime, only hand written OCaml code allowed. Jokes aside, have you watched 2001 - a space Odyssey?

> Sure, there is still use for language expertise, but not enough to get excited over new concepts and ideas. In 5-10 years, the people who have paid attention to these will be needed to bail us out of the mess that the rest of the slop-

I feel most LSPs I used are fairly good at both. Sometimes I get no completion suggestions, look at the sidebar and fix compile errors, then start getting suggestions. For whatever reason, it's a fine trade off for parsing errors.

Only real difference is that `fold` is denser. Both require prior knowledge to understand in their respective paradigms. Adding numbers like this is not common in real world code. Now let's say instead of adding x, you have too look up

This. I don't want your browser engine to use all my cores. I want the rest of my cores to be compiling C++.

I wouldn't have any confidence on a car which invokes coreutils in any manner. Too much surface area for embedded systems.

> `fold` is awesome and super useful. It's the easiest and most convenient way to turn a collection into a single value. You will eventually learn about something called "for loop", and it will be nice.

Beside the license thing mentioned, rust folks are obsessed with an idea of memory safety to an extent of discarding every other value in programming. To the extent of considering other choices "immoral". This manifests in their d

I always advocate having custom-built docker images for CI, periodically refreshed for security fixes. CI should not run more than few seconds over the standard time to run the same thing from a dev machine. However, other people around me

At least something they don't claim to automate with AI. Apparently Anthropic acquired stainless for $300M instead of vibing it.

For many people a beautiful language is which looks beautiful, as opposed to one which reads beautifully.

The friction between coming up with an Idea and implementing it is a feature in most corporates. Otherwise managers will be too focused on creating shiny slides and marketing nonsense - which is happening with AI.

Only ways to rise in a UBI society where AI is supposed to replace intellectual work is crime and prostitution. Smart people who want better lives than the average will have to get into crime.

From a cursory search, this woman looks credentialed and worked at many FAANGs. How can someone with that pedigree not understand a prompt isn't 100% followed to the letter? Maybe the emails weren't worth it? I have little to both

People don't understand exceptional control flow. They think they have to catch them at every point, instead of using them as intended (having a central boundary of error handling where you have enough context whether to retry or abort

I want to ignore Naysayers in the thread but even SOTA LLMs write boilerplate like it is Go 1.14. I have to constantly nudge it to use newer language features properly, even if it's also in my rules/ CLAUDE md files.
