How you managed to spell Phlebus correctly but fucked up Robot, I’ll never know.


Personally, I use LLMs as a time saving tool. It writes the code I tell it to write then I carefully review all of it, every line. It saves about 50% of my time, which is very useful. Like you, I’ve been coding for 40 years in a variety of languages.
I write code for a large non profit and we quite frankly simply don’t have the manpower (or money) to do all the projects we want to do that will improve people’s lives. So it’s a reasonable compromise. AI never touches our codebase and never has access to it at all.
It’s a tool, like any other. Anyone who sets up a table saw to run by itself without careful monitoring and expertise would be fired immediately. Same thing for “vibe coders”.


Son?!?


Society of French blood suckers. ;)


An excellent human.


I am asking because I stream really boring streams all the time. People are welcome to tune in and check out, and there is no expectation of interaction at all. If someone gets some joy out of watching someone fly in a flight simulator listening to chill music for hours at a time, that’s great.
It reminds me of this youtuber, who has thousands of videos with almost no views.

Oh no, what are we going to do with the consequences of our choices? Screw it…


While I very vitriolically disagree with this being voted into law, it doesn’t belong here. Please stop posting US news to News. There are better communities focused on the US.
No. I prefer to be alone, but apparently there’s something about me that other people, animals and kids really like and I’m just too damned nice to just reject all of them all the time.


Not exactly. CGI wasn’t really taking jobs directly from people, it was making people more efficient and changing the paradigm of artistic works by people. AI is wholesale taking jobs that could be done by people, and making it far shittier.
Haha bitches. I am death to mosquitos.


But can they see my house from there?


Hell no. Fuck FIFA.


I did quite a bit of research before going with a capsule from a trusted source. The capsules have the same effect as consuming raw lion’s mane, just amplified, which is why I’ve gone to once a week. It is quite effective at combating the brain fog, but the intense dreams last for 2 days or so after taking one. This is definitely something I would encourage you to research on your own, do the due diligence before taking something like this, as it’s definitely mind-altering. In my particular case, for the good, but YMMV.


He’s Chinese enthinicity and multiple 8s are a lucky number in that culture. I think that’s more likely than a reference to Hitler.


I take these mushroom pills, don’t worry they’re food grade mushrooms. One of them is lions mane, and I take that one specifically to combat the brain fog from long COVID. The only issue I have is that it makes my dreams ridiculously vivid and realistic to the point where most of them are boring stuff like you are describing. I kinda hate taking them, but it is working so I’ll continue. I reduced the dosage to once a week but it’s still almost too much.
Also, while I have that short attention span, let me introduce you to my sponsor, The Left behind Generation! Congratulations you are a winner! What did you win? Well let’s find out.
Can you imagine the metric fuck ton of mushrooms gargamel must have been on?
