   I hope it remains this way then. I am finding it still takes awhile to get my apps to a happy place with AI. Not because the AI is bad but because i have to sit with it for awhile. Figure out what's working, what isn't, what'

   Yeah, but you're missing a gut intuition if something is off. I wrote a fancy polygon decomposition algorithm in university (pre-AI) which my professor didn't seem very impressed by because it was missing some sort of mathematical

   Are you defending doing boring work? I personally never minded doing migrations. I guess I don't really have to anymore though. Weird.

   For complex projects with lots of internal tools and strict requirements, I'm finding a fairly lengthy system prompt is quite worth it. Start short or empty and watch where it makes mistakes then just keep tuning it so they're les

   In the US, permanent residents technically have to keep their green card on them at all times.

   I signed up for AWS (SES) recently for the first time and find their whole thing confusing as heck too. Signed into the wrong region and they pretend they don't even know who I am.

   Can you elaborate? Why wouldn't you just check in your code when you're done your bit instead of working on the same commit together?

   I happened to "pair program" for the first time in years today! My coworker asked me to come over and help him with a problem. 'course we only did it for like 5 min to get him over the hump. I think that's the only use c

    Amusingly i specialized in both AI and philosophy in college. Guess I'll be ok.

    Just curious, why are drug names such a disaster? Do LLMs not understand pronunciation keys?

    I too built a terminal emulator and I like it, but I wouldn't say it's easy to maintain even with LLMs. The # of edge cases is insane.

    Yes. It's fantastic for one-off tasks.

    We're all just impressed that it's even possible. No one is saying these are fun. I guess the next question is if they can be made fun without too much additional work with a human guiding the AI.

    I think the difference is they're completable jobs. You work until it's done. At least for the day.

    That word isn't any better. I am regardless of what I'm doing or how I'm feeling.

    You want them to use .c++? Or .cpp?

    Maybe they just want to use their country tld for things specific to their country instead of letting some shmucks scoop all the domains for useless junk?

    Sounds ok but you know what else is Kubernetes for Rust? Kubernetes. Why use this, lighter weight? What if i also need to deploy non-Rust services across my cluster?

    90% of my over 250k rep is from asking questions. Surely there's some value to asking a well worded question that many other people also have. And yes, I've had my share of questions closed for some BS, including many in recent ti

    So why doesn't the US do it in reverse? Surely there's some R&D going on in China that US can reverse engineer.

    That's the phone I was using too. Gave it to my wife a couple years ago and she used it until just a couple months ago when it too suffered a fatal drop. Very sad. Good phone. I was worried about that pop up camera failing at some poin

    Always was better IMO. I just pinned the browser app as a desktop app and have been using it that way for many months. Works great.

    I don't know that we can have nice things. If two companies produce a similar widget but one is higher quality in no visible or articulable way... Which one will sell better, the cheaper or more expensive one? What if we as consumers c

    I don't think it can give you story beats you shouldn't be aware of yet. Those beats wouldn't be fed into the prompt until the event happens. LLM can't spit out what it doesn't know. It might indeed fail to reveal s

    I frequently steer the AI mid convo though. So much so that I find it useless to share the original prompt. I don't know how best to capture that.
