I would be interested to learn why that is a problem. As a new Rust learner, I am curious.

Input: I am disappointed that the enterprise software development, and some open source is going heavily into AI-assisted development. Freshers do not learn much and become disillusioned, bad developers become dangerous and occasionally competent, while good developers accelerate. Somewhere in between the skill, there is also the greed on both sides of the spectrum that is opening up new avenues for original thinking, independent thought, and the real creatives to die a silent and muted death.

Output: I’m honestly concerned about the shift toward AI-assisted development in both enterprise and open source.

Here’s the reality: - Freshers are missing out on core learning and feeling disillusioned. - Low-skilled devs are becoming dangerous with tools they don't fully grasp. - Top-tier talent is accelerating, but at what cost?

Between the skill gap and the corporate greed on both sides, we’re losing something vital. Original thinking and true creativity are being silenced. We need to protect the "human" in tech before the real innovators fade away.

I am tempted to share this, but worried I'll be put on some list.

For me, it is wanting to implement something myself takes time not because the said thing is complicated but because of the inertia. I have been sitting on a 3-2-1 sync + backup solution for months now.

I do have hope that this delay goes down as I keep implementing things.

The next level i.e., rate of change of Jerk is called Jounce. However, I'm afraid I don't know how that would be described in car passenger's terms in your example.

I disconnect from the internet sometimes and noticed this morning that my previous night's chat was invisible. I could only see it once I connected again.

This puts me off a bit to finally try local models. Anyone know what kind data is collected in those rare instances of cloud usage?

No, I understood that and respect that a lot. I thought of doing that as I had hundreds if not thousands of never to be visited. As an interim, instead of using the browser bookmarks or any online services I just save useful things to my notes depending on my professional context.

Hey! I started doing the same w.r.t bookmarking this a couple of years back. All new bookmarks now go into a note specific to the topic in the personal KB instead of into the browser bookmarks. Most notes have a '## bookmarks' section at the end where these go.

I can vouch for this. Once you're at a senior or lead level these things are easy to weed out.

I used to ask a simpler (for AI) question. The candidate reads out the first sentence. By this time I'd have already established that the candidate is not genuine. Our interview process let's ride out the interview as a courtesy and to also try to extract something out of the candidate that the company could use.

Anyway once they read out the first sentence from the AI with utmost sincerity, I'd follow-up with deeper questions into the topic at hand. 99% failed to answer the second question well. The ones who let me ask the third and fourth questions are devs who still have their original thinking hats in place but just use AI out of nervousness or who generally don't interview well. Those we'd explore further and suggest for lesser roles/alternate streams etc. This all my experience and others MMV.

Based on your comment, I tried this and it is working. Thanks.
