democracy

Touche, a more or less decent pool robot cleaner is around 3k and doesn't last more than a few years without changing every part but the case itself. Ok I take it - it operates in somewhat "hostile" environment but the point still stands

Very new, beta stuff - AI can be helpful but too creative sometimes

I am happy they are dead. Humanity gets +1 for this one.

They chose being controlled and not being Reddit - I can imagine lots of ways to do both - still they chose the toxic way and now they are dead, goal achieved.

Did you try to negatively impact their profit? And you expected them to act on it? Are you crazy? /s

One of the cowboys' techniques, only good for the writer, never for the reader

yc pitch?

thats brilliant - "we gonna take your job away from you, please start using our tools", "we stole the content to sell you, and now we are getting robbed, please feel sorry for us", what's next?

It does actually. I am pro-OSS as sharing knowledge and innovation, I am not sure at this stage I am happy sharing my work with people using LLMs for anything... OSS gonna change for sure.

nothing beats diy dehydrated turkey mince stripes... but pita to make them )))

Midjourney seems useless these days, not even sure why would anyone use.

Touche )))

I reported a fake costco website ad (cc harvester) to Google, their response was something along "we cannot verify the ad", go figure

The power of SQL is not because it is "based on mathematics" - it's because anyone (really, anyone, even with the most basic English skills) could understand it quickly enough to start using it productively with not much technical knowledge. Business analytics, managers of all sorts, manual QA people could grasp the basics in a minute and more complex queries within a few hours. It is very user-friendly and such tools win over anything else. Each time I see an overengineerd/overcomplicated solution that is hard to read/understand - I know it's only "good luck" to the creators.

Genius!

Not many industries can afford refactoring of the code is not supposed to be changed - additional (unexpected) regression testing costs, risk of downtime, etc. You learn that if it works and is in production - don't touch it.

so how did this go?

one man's boilerplate is another man's concise business logic )))

This is great )) maybe do random templates similar to newspapers (like photo on the left, photo on the right, one block full width, then 3 columns, etc).

You can be right but quite often it helps keeping focus on the forrest rather then getting lost in the trees - at least for me. Boilerplate steals a lot of attention, focus and can just be mentally exhausting.

Similar approach, but I also go a step further with some basic manual architecture/high level contract/stubs setups, just to keep it consistent with other systems (and easier reading as well).

You just learn how to type with your toes. It is an easy skill to master and then comes handy when you drive, or sit at important meetings (you can just keep coding away) and noone's the wiser.

I think they will try to get into the enterprise as soon as possible - looking out for big purchases - figma, atlassian, asana, monday, etc...

Yeah, at 100$ or 200$ a month my expectations would raise (and tolerance to errors go to zero) as we are going into enterprise level pricing.

Because it shows you are hip and trendy and MAYBE you deserve a job in the AI era

I think this is what kills them, not AI. I know 2 companies (enterprise level) who are migrating away from Atlassian atm just gets too costly.

And the solution is...?

It's a pipe dream sorry

But it is not replacing programmer jobs, it's a fantasy world

It's good to have a discussion here so I am ready for all the dumb peer chats I am going to have in the next few weeks with people who don't use these tools but rely on Linkedin wisdom.
