I think people are coping. Software engineering has only gotten easier over time. Fifteen years ago, knowing how to code made you seem like a wizard, and learning was tough - you had to read books, truly understand them, and apply what you

Thats fair! I just don't agree with the readable part and thinking. I personally get tired having to look at all the archaic boilerplate to find the actual logic that I want to reason about.

I have to agree with author. I don't see what people like about golang. It seems like people use it because it is cool but after a while people realize they are less productive with it.

Cloudflare have always had this. I wonder how this will affect them.

It is a total clusterfuck how you even get access to the API. So people pay because they want a convenient way to get access to GPT-4.

I am still perplexed that people accept the UX of Discord. It is just so horrible that I can not get myself to use it even if I am looking for a place to engage with communities. There are way too many channels which you cannot opt out of.

That is your workflow. Many places have replaced email with Slack. For DMs people might not care how good the message is but for public channels where there are many recipients I am sure people care about the quality of their message. The f

That has always been the case. That is why I also believe coding will be forever changed with these models. We won't be copy/pasting into a chat-interface but this will be integrated everywhere making it a completely different way

Perhaps I was not clear. I meant google loosing ground in AI is overblown not ChatGPT itself.
11.
by DogLover_ 3y ago
I think it is overblown. ChatGPT was released about a few months ago and google have already created their own alternative albeit a worse version. I would say that is pretty good for an enterprise organisation to react that fast.

Usually a problem can be split into many parts. Are you not able to get ChatGPT to solve some of them individually without understanding your work domain?

I always thought one of the drawbacks of working in america compared to europe was that there was less of a safety net. However, with all these news about layoffs I see that most tech companies provide a severance package of 16 weeks which

I work with modern javascript though I would by no means call me an expert on it. Rarely do I have to work with promises in such details.

I could not explain the code and I have been developing for years... I asked ChatGPT and I feel I have better understanding of it now.

Sure, if you are only using thinking shortsighted. I doubt they consider what effect remote has on retention and company reputation and how those factors could affect productivity.

by DogLover_ 3y ago
Even if the data was there. Is it worth it if employees are much happier with remote work? It should really not be a binary question whether the productivity is higher or lower.

For someone considering trying Neovim, the main obstacle is the abundance of GitHub projects promising an effortless way to get started. This abundance can lead to analysis paralysis, making it challenging to choose a path forward.

Same here. What I found curious though is that the push is coming from the investors and not from the company itself.

The problem with backup codes is that many people don't understand how crucial they are if they loose their device. Even IT people. I believe it is a step many skips because they falsely believe they can get access in some other way if

I may not be using the term feminism accurately, but what I mean is that men were told that any progress made for women would also be beneficial for them. While I fully support gender equality and fairness, it doesn't seem like these a

Men were told that feminism is good, and the rise of women should not be a threat to them. These result shows the opposite I think.

I don't think the codebases I have worked on can be considered large as such. However, to me, they were actually easier to change/refactor. There was less boilerplate, and more concrete implementation than what I see in static lan

While your intentions may be good, it's worth noting that these things can have negative effects on some people. For example, they can disrupt sleep patterns, lead to feelings of failure and low self-esteem, and drain energy levels.

Yes, it stopped when Fortnite was getting traction. It was a small team and development was not going well anyways.

Kinda similar, you oftentimes don't need to use an `else` statement. It is way overused and leads to code with too much indentation.

I think you would be surprised how PRs work in many companies. We are encouraged to write small PRs and many will have automated tools that points to a Jira ticket in the description or as a comment. For this reason many leave empty descrip
