Yes because A tech-bro AIs dream is hundreds of thousands of developers being let go and replacing them with no code tools. Sure, replace me with AI, but I better get royalties on my public contributions. I like many other developers have k

Why is thing being downvoted? That’s why your text is greyed right?

Honestly, that is why I let errors in my writing go now… to sound human.

The name of the game for me is building “sh#t that works well” and I like it, and that means constant learning no doubt. I’ve done crazy sh!t like implementing Webservers with bash, accessed accessed by tunneling over uart, to configure las

Sorry just asking. I used to review CVs part time. It used to be pretty clear who was embellishing their CV with AI and who was not. There was also a writing style that came with using AI. My spider sense is tingling!

I said he was right, but in your case you are wrong. Your shell loads thr profile script for login shells, but will load your bashrc regardless of login or not Excluding this argument, overloading system commands is still bad practice lol.

by wasmainiac 8mo ago
That’s true, but I would still call overloading system binaries bad practice. Your making yourself foot gun.

by wasmainiac 8mo ago
I would recommend against overriding standard system binaries, you could break compatibility on your system with scripts that depend on those binaries. I just use an abbreviation like rg=“grep -RE”

I’m not hoarding a library of accounts to abuse the ToS. My last account is on a dead iPhone somewhere. Things break or transfer ownership. HN accounts are quick to make, and I’m not one to collect internet points.

Because it consumes hours of time on the daily. And I can’t whole heartedly say that it was a choice to do so since it appears to be habit forming. It pushes out time for other activities, sometimes self-care like sleep, sometimes key miles

I don’t get it, is this some kind of gotcha? Have you walked down the skid row of any large city? Heroin and well other drugs now are a problem, saying otherwise is delusional. Those people need help.

For me music is a form of emotional expression. When I hear that was composed synthetically I feel like it has zero value. I’m fine with AI music that is labels as AI, but when someone markets that music as their own hand made art it feels,

Because people don’t want to listen to robots. There was a radio station here in Norway caught playing AI music to save on royalties, it was not good for them.

I also second this. I find that I write better by hand, although I work on niche applications it’s not really standard crud or react apps. I use LLMs in the same way i used to used stack overflow, if I go much farther to automate my work th
