I'm with you. I do use it for tedious tasks, but I'll never be one of those people who stops looking at code.

That's absurd. Google Search used to work. Now it doesn't.

Sam Altman is going to put you all on a list. So much precious RAM wasted.

It sucks and I hate it.

A whole century? The word "never" is doing a lot of work here.

> They’ve been boasting about American oil companies having higher profits.

It's wild to see the cultists cheer for this right now while they're plunging themselves further into debt.

My sisters both have last-name first names that are commonly used for both genders, and one of those sisters has 3 kids, all with last-name first names. It's weird, but it beats everyone having a biblical name.

That same government turned EVs into a cultural issue, so I doubt that would happen.

Totally. I get value from coding tools, but I don't understand why anyone would be happy that they don't even have to look at code anymore.

> And everyone forgets Geordi was tortured and mind-controlled by the Romulans. In anything close to reality he'd never be allowed on a starship again

You could say that about so many characters. Capitan Pike lived an entire lifetime in his head, and then just woke up as a 50 year old Capitan again, and went back to work.

Chief O'brian went to a brutal prison for 20 years, in his head of course, but it was real to him.

Both of them would be completely different people after these experiences.

This bubble can't pop soon enough.

"I like people who weren't captured and assimilated by the Borg"

Just as I'm in the middle of watching Picard Season 1.

If someone told me this was a Sam Altman quote, I'd believe them.

Because it turns this situation from "okay well, you're fired", to "okay, we don't want any trouble".

Why should they? What's a good reason why laws shouldn't apply to everyone?

This is exactly where I'm at. I also avoid using AI for the more creative parts of programming too, while finding utility in it for the more tedious parts.

I'm definitely resentful that I have to use AI to stay relevant, and wish it never came into existence, but religious exemptions shouldn't exist. If a law or rule isn't important enough for everyone to follow, it shouldn't be a rule or law.

I'm doing my very best to not let my skills atrophy. I have gotten a lot of benefit from AI in certain cases. I co-own a SaaS with a TON of tech debt, and AI has been helpful for reducing some of the tedium of migrating through 3 Django versions, but I will never be one of those people who brags about "not opening an IDE in 6 months" like I recently saw on this board.

It's going to be great. Ai will take over the tedious tasks that we have to do every day at work, opening us up to the ability to pursue interests that are meaningful for us as we progress into a post-scarcity society.

Just kidding, we get trillionaires instead because people who are just scraping by can't seem to let go of Capitalism.

If you can't exercise your rights without being murdered by a state sanctioned thug, then it's not really a right. Also, has he been indicted yet? charged?

You can't possibly be this naive.

If that were true, he wouldn't have had a second term. Americans are finally experiencing his fuckery first hand with fuel prices, which is why he is going to lose. The lies weren't much of a concern. Fox News is still I believe the biggest cable channel in the country.

What you are describing IS in fact Liberalism.

People voluntarily do this in exchange for cheaper insurance rates.

My M2 pro is perfect still other than the fact that the 16gb of RAM is killing me.

If we calling the USSR Communist, then we are already redefining the meaning of the word Communism.

Man, I used to play the crap out of this game. Amazing.

Yinz goin dahn tahn for the Stillers game? I need a ride, car needs fixed.

Was I wrong in assuming that "Latinx" was only intended for written language? Because it's not pronounceable in any way that makes sense.
