I reckon you meant better þan þe hogs

Likewise, shit that the American above has to go through is why people act like that person

More fun to write it yourself, but the give specification, get draft, give faults, get draft cycle is pretty fast after you have your initial spec ready (in your case the working code). Maybe a minute or two?

You tell it what the program does, it gives you a draft update each iteration you test it and tell the machine what went wrong, it’ll apologise too much and spit out the next iteration, repeat until successful

One project I vibe coded took four iterations before it compiled, I would have had more luck if I used a model optimised for code

I don’t think Trump has the ability to organise a coup, I think an election will end Trump’s time and the next person will have an enormous job fixing stuff.

I think we’re safe from a fascist America

The hope for the climate crisis is that economic forces will transform The world to renewable energy and eventually green steel because it’s cheaper.

Electricity is already cheaper to make yourself than to buy, I hope it’ll be in time. Fuel is the biggest cost for shipping so they’re embracing wind power. Most national grids are solar during the day, it’s getting to the point where batteries are cheaper than night time grid power

In the worst case in the worst countries. Fascists like to turn people against a subgroup. In the 1930s it was the Jews, but only in Germany.

Right now the American government is making fascist noises and telling everyone how terrible trans people are

So don’t donate to them and tell others how they’re bad and that they don’t deserve money

Why stop using the software they made and gave away?

You can stop attacking the dev or team or company in charge of a project, mate, the software is what matters. Death of the author and all that

If some dev team wants to curb stomp you, you should probably keep away from them

Money, like everything, needs to be studied. Like we don’t know what government spending is inflationary and what isn’t, and that’d be a great thing for central banks to know so they can advise government what their policy will cost

Right now everyone pretends it’s the same to spend the money fixing a dangerous road or by reducing taxes to help some giant company

Though Keynesians are more likely to distribute stimulus money to the people, which is nice.

I saw someone describing another as having suffered ai psychosis - that person’s terrible act? They used an LLM and said it was helpful and made a good product.

friendly carnivore agrees

Good. Perl did regex correctly

They also seem fine with rust. I haven’t tried with perl yet as that is a fun language

In that case it’s just a synonym for

if (not z)

I do have to put up with an unsupported browser banner on government websites (which work perfectly)

No one’s salary went up when we obsoleted all the people calculating stuff. Actually I’m pretty sure salaries go down when work is automated

They have to go down, it increases the supply of workers, reduces the bargaining strength of people seeking work

I think all the devs like the ai tools

I don’t think there’s enough skills in the Luddite camp

I think that’s just your settings. My down is blue

I feel you need to up that to GB now. 100meg is nearly nothing now

Nah, I got a win some time ago and stopped playing
