Edit: Okay, I read the prompts and they use negative phrasing a lot, so I guess it does work, but boy, are these prompts laborious. Requirements are repeated ad nauseam. This model seems to be quite tone deaf.
You can consider all of these problems in the other stages as well, even if you still doubt the impact on your own field. Most devs in the stage of acceptance, however, will be increasingly preoccupied with how to keep paying their bills instead of such lofty questions.
1. It is great to see an effect of your thoughts, like something happening in the real world. 2. Coding offers a feeling of perfect control due to the deterministic nature of code.
I would argue that 1 is still the case with LLMs, and 2 was always just 95% true, never 100%, because of oversights, bugs in libraries, and what have you.
So what actually decays is maybe not so much the feeling of self-efficacy, but the feeling of control, and even this is a gradual change. Perhaps it would be less unsettling if it didn't happen at the same time as a potential loss of control in other areas: career, salary, mode of working etc.
You can always make it do a second pass, and if that isn't enough, even let it fix each generated text block individually.

I expect the gruesome writing style of LLMs to be fixed relatively soon, seeing how it can already be prevented with just a few lines of stylistic instructions.
I just wonder: how long will it take us then, after the fix, to not be thrown off every time we see some unnecessary catchy or contrastive phrasing?
Being traumatized by poor writing was not on my bingo card for 21st century technological progress ...
I'm not saying it will happen, but at least it's not inconceivable that LLMs could surpass them in this calculation more and more often.
Nietzsche is depicted in an oversimplified way as a kind of tortured brute, and Otto Dix' late return to Christianity is rather exaggerated.
Dix remained interested in many topics until late in his life. While he radiates more empathy than Nietzsche, the one constant in Dix' art is that he never spared any feelings or aesthetic sensibilities. This urge to remain true to oneself and shed all masks is something he may have found reflected and elavated in Nietzsche's writing, even if he ultimately discovered that some of Nietzsche's admiration of fierceness was a peacetime naivety.
Dix' painting "Flandern", 1936:

There is a notable percentage of people who regret having kids, despite initially deciding to have them.
It is not possible to fully anticipate what it's like. For some parents, an unexpected change in circumstances may also change perspectives. E.g. their own parents may fall ill and add to the caretaking burden instead of sharing in it.
I guess from a pure language POV, one might argue that rust leaves humans with more opportunity to add abstractions that are too clever and too hard to wrap your head around. That doesn't feel like a strong argument, though.
Then there is of course the ecosystem, where go maybe has better libraries for some stuff (while rust may have better ones for other things).
If the premise of the article is true, and I think that it is, that's quite the downside for AI coding with go. The premise being that reviewing now plays much more of a role than writing.
Personally, I'd rather review, say, a ruby oneliner that extracts specific row values from a csv file with filter_map, compared to 40 or so lines of go, many of which I'd have to check individually for possible mistakes.
It leads to an interesting way to think about company and civic health as well. Instead of focussing purely on incentives, one might assume that many are inclined to do good stuff anyway, and then ask: are we lowering the cost of all desired behavior as much as possible? And are we doing it for as many people as possible?
Now I am wondering if my return flight from Bordeaux in a few days will actually happen. Currently the airport is still operating, although the surrounding area has been evacuated. It really looks apocalyptic there, though:

But it's probably a common feeling. I wonder if we'll see an increased number of people burn out in the serious, medical sense.
10 minutes doesnt sound like much of a loss, even if you do it every day. Maybe it helps you empathize with athletes, or if you get nostalgic/wistful, it helps you explore the range of emotions, which is fine as long as you don't get stuck with them.

hey ChatGPT, how many civilians were killed in Gaza in the war since 2023?

In light of the recent submission, "For thirty years I programmed with Phish on, every day" [1], I was wondering: will anyone still be writing code by hand in a few years?For the sake of the argument, please assume that we will arrive at a point where all code changes of more than a few characters can be performed more quickly by an AI.By saying "more quickly", I would still allow for the fact...
I would like to thank you, though, because this set is incredible. I've listened to hundreds of techno sets and this is near the top.
