Somehow I'll miss you Google. I'll miss the simpler times. You were a fine search engine and gmail was pretty great too, at the time. I was really excited to get an invite. Good memories. We'll always remember you. Well.. not

That's (IMO) too narrow view of what a "machine" is. Complex machinery of any kind never is 100% correct and needs constant correction and maintenance. I still think approaching this as a "calculator" is awkward at

Confining an LLM to the very narrow domain of "calculators" is a mistake, I think. You wouldn't say "a programmer that is 99% correct is worthless, I need 100%". I'm pushing it, but for a more fair comparison I

You think music theory is more demanding than CS? I've dedicated decades and probably 75% of my youth to mastering this instrument called a computing device. It has numerous layers, each completely different and each significant enough

Making art is not "vastly more difficult" or at least it is (IMO) highly debatable. Some parts of it require decades of experience to do with any kind of excellence, yes. That's also the case with powerlifting, figure skating

Why do you want to change? Regret anything? I don't know the first thing about you, so it's hard to say what is going to help. If you truly are a narcissist all bets are off, but perhaps you are just a bit self-centered which migh

It does not suck. The compile times are OK and are getting better. Angular (and other) SPAs have capabilities no RoR, ASP.NET or Django setup can even begin to touch. Separating the back-end from the front-end with an independent API is als

He is not a developer. He fudges with scripts. Good luck bootcamping someone to engineer. Civil or otherwise.

I find it interesting that somebody dedicates his or her life to figuring out how these CPUs work when exactly that information is just laying about in some vault in Santa Clara.

An API backend + UI front-end consuming it is the perfect solution, it is the only sane thing I ever came across. Stop trying so hard to shoehorn old bullshit over it. It took us decades to settle on this, please leave it be and focus on mo

Become a developer, then you will understand. It is like asking why mechanics have a lot of tools around them.

No, I'm young-ish (33) and I agree. TUI's are just a very restricted type of GUI's. These restrictions make the devs focus on what is important, because there is literally no room for bullshit. These UI's pack more punch
