Perhaps you are both right. People who see coding as a means to an end enjoy LLMs while people who saw it as the most enjoyable part don’t.

No, absolutely not. I would even be for labor organization if it had no impact on this matter primarily because I don't see why it would be a negative.

I am all for labor organization. I just don’t see how it would be of benefit in this particular case.

I had to set the language of my google account to English to make it finally stop auto translating YouTube. Setting the language in YouTube had worked for a few weeks, then it would be reset again. Setting the language of the google account

I have a similar experience. It feels like riding your bike in a higher gear - you can go faster but it will take more effort and you need the potential (stronger legs) to make use of it

Today I tried to use Copilot to go through a code base and export unexported types, interfaces and unions (typescript). It had to also rename them to make sure they are unique in context of the package. Otherwise I would have used search&am

Yes, I notice the benefit of having the same faces around regularly at the $sport I do few times per week. You don’t say much more than hello and goodbye, but after a while you appreciate each other's company and really miss it when yo

Exactly. If you just throw things at it, it will fail. You have to break down the complex problems into sets of simple ones (for now). Then it can shine.

If those 30 seconds are the total time the bar is in your hands and off the floor it sounds reasonable tho, doesn’t it? The numbers quoted match about what I personally experienced

Agreed, it’s like doing static HTML instead of an SPA for a simple website. It’s not glamorous, it’s not exciting but it’s incredibly efficient. I have been lifting for 18 years now and it’s become like brushing my teeth: I just do it witho

True. The best time was a decade ago. The second best time is now.

Maybe someone in the HN crowd knows that: Why are these robots moving so slowly? Is it for safety or does speed increase the difficulty significantly?

So basically they would just have to stop shooting rockets at Israel and it would be over?

I get the frustration but that frustration itself can discourage newbies that look up to more senior peers. I am not saying that learning all these tools is necessary to be a productive developer, but at the same time we should also not ea

I have seen this in Japanese convenience stores… I was quite puzzled :)

I was about to comment that but luckily stopped to search if someone else already did. In our company this is taken pretty seriously and would trigger some raised eyebrows from the security department :)

This is a good demonstration of how much more work it is to refute bogus statements than it is to make them.

It reminds of the typical “let’s take a complex thing and blow a tiny detail’s importance completely out of proportion”. In this case the complex thing is “happiness” and the tiny detail is “the fraction of time you spend watching porn”. So

Interesting, I have never heard that one before. Would you mind sharing a source?

Yes I do the same. Paying for news (NZZ in Switzerland) and avoiding sources that are incentivized to clickbait has made following the world something with a net positive for me again. It also had the strange effect of getting from being mi

My advice would be to add more pillars to your life (for a lack of a better term): If you only have work in your life (I am non-judgementally assuming that is the case, sorry if I am wrong), your life will be awesome if work is going great,

That is completely normal. For example, I lose about 0.5-1kg of weight after a week of not training, and I look pretty flat. That will mostly be water tho. After two weeks without training and while eating a shit (but oh so tasty) diet and
