Ever since my boss has transitioned to doing code reviews by AI and off loading his brain fully to AI, I could just use my AI to do the same to fix the things and I no longer have to deal with petty design arguments. I no longer have to dea

If the more skilled programmers become managers, then it's theoretically their job to become teachers, as their goal is to be force multipliers as opposed to people who can't delegate and accept a lower quality (temporarily) in ex

The lack of tolerance towards BS is like a super power gift now! I wish I had this backbone before.

Before mine was born at the workplace they complained about how long paternity leave was and how unfair it was to those without kids. Now that I'm on the other side, anybody who thinks that is a jerk. Yes likely everyone deserves more

The changed I noticed is twofold: + If a situation would not be acceptable for my son (bullying) then I shouldn't have to tolerate it at work (workplace bullying) + Priorities shift dramatically. I see director level people running aro

And now you have to create your own portal that hosts the pdfs so that the client can download it. yeah at some point my job was: "I create complicated PDFs for clients that want them but will never read them."

Very interesting site. I share the consensus that the premise is bold and it has the "feeling" of having some good questions. I never thought of asking whether a computer is really adding "productivity". Maybe the "

Oh I'm sorry, but this makes total sense. I say sorry so much that I have seen people take it as admission of responsibility. And it's not good. Glad there are laws that understand the nuance of language.

Sub question if anyone is interested. I often have to ask people to repeat themselves but when I go get hearing tests they say I'm perfect. It's a little annoying. I've copped it out to this framework: the hearing tests only

I came here to say sorry. Actually interesting I remember saying sorry in the sense of, "Can you repeat what you said?" and it annoyed one of my friends so much that she essentially trained me to say pardon instead because it was

The friction in everyday interactions feels higher than it used to be. I'm noticing a common thread: a lack of emphasis on training. I see the gap shows up everywhere. The result is increased friction for everything in life and it&#x27

Without context of who these people are, yes perhaps malicious but perhaps not consciously so. Merits a frank conversation of indicating that the action of AI reinterpretation introduced errors that poorly reflect on OP's reputation an

Based on other comments in the thread but not any direct reply to mine. I would also express that I was surprised when a coworker of mine complained that nobody read message boxes we put up to help the user. It was my first corporate job an

I thought the reply was generally helpful. Something to consider about in my equally exacting wording as I share the same frustration as the original comment and this give me a framework to view possible issues with my own writing. I.E. You

Something that peeves me where I'm at is that the transportation system here (not Chicago) is not coordinated across the systems. Here there's a bus that could take me to where I work, but it stops once every hour and is often lat

I guess I'm struggling because I also do like the IDEA of the unix commands being text that is piped around through commands so I do enjoy the concept of the purity of that mechanism.

I agree that debugging these pipelines are a nightmare sometimes. It's something that frustrates me sometimes because even though in OOP it won't be terse the action would be clearer. OOP can at times also introduce less cognitive

I've been wanting to get into OpenScad. Wondering what you've identified as an issue. I dabbled a little and I think I remember wishing it was more object oriented to make it a bit easier to make reusable adjustable pieces and I h

Every platform and application seems to do things differently. On Linux, I end up with a mix of dotfiles in my home directory, some apps putting things under ~/.local/..., and then tools like Miniconda insisting on a top-level fol
