>Why? Because I keep wondering myself if AI is here and our output is charged up, then why am I keep seeing more of the same products but with an "AI" sticker slapped on top of the…

>Then everyone who wants AI can have it and those that don't .... don't. The current trajectory of products with integrated online worries me, due to the fact that the average comp…

My counterpoint to this is, if someone cannot verify the validity of the summary then is it truly a summary? And what would the end result be if the vast majority of people opted t…

>2. Internalized speed: be a great individual contributor, build a deep, precise mental model, build correct guardrails and convention (because you understand the problem) and prot…

Have we really reached the point where a candidate gets outright rejected for not using AI tools, without taking personal aptitudes into consideration?

>Interesting how many people in a hacker forum I learned to accept the fact that HN reached a critical mass point that made it fill up with people who market themselves as "product…

>It's the same with genetics. Getting lucky with looks is fine but working for the same goal (eg surgery) is somehow bad and people often hide it. We also tend to hide how hard we …

What I find amusing with this argument is that, no one ever brought power savings when e.g. used "let me google that for you" instead of giving someone the answer to their question…

Clippy only helped with very specific products, and was compensating for really odd UI/UX design decisions. LLM's are a product that want to data collect and get trained by a huge …

One can assume that, given the goal is money (always has been), the best case scenario for money is to make it so the problem also works as the most effective treatment. Money gets…

>People exaggerate the problems of using a stable distro. Stability isn't a problem, it's a feature. Companies trust Debian, Ubuntu LTS, etc. for their servers EXACTLY because the …

Every time I read an LLM's response state something like "I'm sorry for X", "I'm happy for Y" reminds me of the demons in Frieren, where they lacked any sense of emotion but they e…

It's not about what the company uses, but how informed the technical people responsible for hiring candidates are around the ecosystem they claim they work with. Example: Expected:…

Every time I read about new .NET version improvements I always remember my attempt to get a job using this stack in my local job market (Greece), where .NET Framework is super prev…

When I was in high school, I would see the algebra teacher work through expressions and go "ohhh, that makes sense". But when I got back home to work with the homework, I couldn't …

>and if you’re training an agent for this specific task anyway, you’re effectively locking yourself to that specific LLM in perpetuity rather than a replaceable or promotable worke…

Before copilot what I'd do is diagnose and identify the feature that resembles the one that I'm about to build, and then I'd copy the files over before I start tweaking. Boilerplat…

I can't even begin to imagine how a 12-year old who discovered how empowering bending the machine to do your will through code feels when, over time, realize that their dream caree…

I always assumed that general advice targets the average person, without accounting for potential mental health problems. I cannot imagine myself trying to tailor an advice for all…

I'm kind on the fence, but not with the article. It's true that there are engineers who lean more towards one or the other way. For example, since the author brings up the switch f…

Yep. I can see how relying on non-repetitive dialogue generated by LLM's will inevitably make us lose common ground scenarios that end up being memorable moments, like the arrow to…

I hate how true this is, even as a job seeker. I'm here building things using Next.js when I'm fully aware that I can build them using less than that, yet I must keep going and ove…

Just because you can never have absolute safety and security doesn't mean that you should be deliberately introduce more vulnerabilities in a system. It doesn't mtif we're talking …

The other grossly understated downside of lacking server browsers is how the player nowadays relies on the system to match him with the "best match" they can get. This opens the do…

My fear is that this will make the gap between newcomers and veterans so much bigger that the junior market will suffer more than ever before. However, according to a few job openi…
