It's hard but if you read it once for the vibes and then pay closer attention the next time you go through it's not too hard. Baudrillard is a Zizek-level philosopher in the sense that his own celebrity is kind of at the centre of

Good enough IFF you are dealing with a cute web app or simple SAAS or something. Software engineers feeling down should think about software designed to track medication administration, or validate their tax calculations, or to decide wheth

Any and all discussion that suggests the deprecation of human-held domain-specific, manually-able knowledge & skill, on the basis of LLM capacity, is propaganda.

I think there should be honesty about what "Doing" some of these things means. Outsourcing is "doing" IFF you regard the end product as the sole meaningful or significant part of a given goal or process. "Have your

It still makes me laugh when i see "prompt engineering". I open articles posted on here that contain many diagrams and novel jargon, all for it to amount to using a fucking markdown file with some text in it.

The problem is my friend you're right but people who tend to browse this website are no longer engineers who would also understand this; it's mostly HR, Managerial staff, and jaded engineers who never enjoyed implementation detail

The community portion that unironically think AI is good enough now, are mostly managers and non/semi-technical people, and engineers who do not engage in critical or complex problems. HN has always been too much of the velocity-alignm

It's just cope. I'm so close to just never coming back to HN because the quality of thought has just gone through the floor. Anything whatsoever to hedge one's way to fellating a phallusless chatbot

Incredibly impressive how, the moment AI becomes the topic of conversation, trivial things such as speaking in relative terms become incredibly difficult for the more addled of the prompting users.

Why must so much gumflapping involve the spew of any words but those which encourage not using the clear problem tool more. "the question becomes how teams will manage cognitive debt" the question is why it is allowed to occur whe

Really anything can (and must) be written to justify delegated thought. See: replies to this thread.

Why is it always so consistently a comparison to a technology of a fundamentally different order? Perhaps what has been lost is the ability to recognise distinct and incommensurable categories.

You aren't thinking myopically; it's a fundamental contradiction the root of which is in how human brains take in and understand new information. No amount of pontification or bollocks hedging as this and all other "thinkpiec

Without getting even more eyes on me, these company boards are inadequately scared for their personal safety.

Why not just not vibecode? Safer methods of injecting recreational narcotics, such madness.

On a creative level, I remember McCarthy describing scalped heads as like wet polyps blue in the moonlight. The more generic ways of describing something like that would never give me such a visceral reaction to the violence he was trying t

Greptile literally spams PRs with overwhelming verbiage slop and often actively dangerous recommendations. I am tired of sales/propaganda masquerading as insight from vested interests.

I'm wrong for that. But whenever I suggest solutions for that, police officers visit me!

Reminded of that episode of House where the lady with dormant syphillis had something like this. I wonder are there any ways I can contract this without breaking marital vows

My impression is that people who think that LLMs will completely release reviewing or writing code have never really worked on anything safety critical. I'm not looking forward to the next wave of pacemaker glitches.

Highly dependent on passage and writer imo, for anything before 1500 Some people I've had say middle english is easy enough to read now, and that's sometimes true, but if you drop some passages of Gawain or Pearl in front of peopl

At this stage the use this kind of rhetorical structure, whereby a series of affirmatory statements (sometimes alternatively a series of rhetorical questions) are used to hedge a following "but", is so regular and reliable a flagr
