    "More nonsense. Our population isn't exploding, it's just big." If graph not exponential, why exponential shaped? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_population

    A compiler is more efficient than an 8 layer llm lasagna stack of tools. Likewise, to stay on topic: a strictly typed language is better than running five python type checkers if y…

    If I had said c++ would that have triggered you less?

    Its about limiting surface area. The gymnastics people are putting their ops teams through in order to validate oceans of generated slop is insane. Just use Rust and half of that w…

    Oops thank you, I did mean static. I should know better as I am a cpp fan. Updated.

    Dynamically typed languages are going to decline with the rise of AI coding. Statically typed languages provide the determinism necessary to efficiently anchor probabalistic coding…

    This reads to me like someone's mania project. I wish OP the best and hope they can get some rest.

    When it completed a task from the same amount of guidance and specifications that I would have spent on a Jr engineer. It did it faster and better.

    I always wondered how they messed portal up. It seemed so natural of a piece of hardware to fit into everything else they do. Tying it to horizon says all I need to know.

    We're talking about different things. Im talking about your own personal coding. You dont have to use the new things. You dont have to know them to decide to discard them. In fact,…

    You don't have to use them. There's a handful of nice to haves in modern releases but its totally fine and sane to just ignore whatever the committee is distracted by at the moment…

    Which is worse? std's mess or one you control? I'd take any random game engine's STL over std any day.

    The reqs are likely a side effect of how the application is built and the fact that its made by a solo dev. I find it more pleasant to do UI within the context of a video game rend…

    Let's not be pedantic. Its quite obvious to anyone not living under a rock what "anti-vaccine" means.

    I am a terrible person to ask. My employers get their money's worth from me: I genuinely like my work and regularly work more than 8hrs a day. I also work in a field with others wh…

    It absolutely is. The funding for it, not the product itself.

    Hard to motivate people to work on things that destroy society. Money helps. Want to see how motivated Meta employees are? Watch how fast their offices clear out at 5pm on the dot.…

    Same. I assumed this happens on any employer machine anyway. If not specific mouse movement and keystrokes then file access and connected devices. I honestly don't understand the o…

    Careful. The venn diagram bubble depicting your statement overlaps heavily with the anti-vaccine bubble. Its a bit naieve to claim that cleaning one's home will result in an extinc…

    You're right about the reqs. A lot of the menu screen behaviors were traditions borrowed from arcade games and big box demo kiosks. The idea is that your game must do "something" i…

    Sometimes I think we're being argued against by LLMs. Critique of your example while missing the entire point of it.

    Not to be insensitive about the humanitarian and economic situation, but, I am curious why there are data centers in that region at all? It just seems horribly inefficient from a c…

    Despite many people such as you and I yelling at random hippies and hillbillies online, they continue to call everything "morels". Reread my comment again: it is true that people c…

    Superstition/caution. They aren't 'difficult' to cook. They are dangerous to eat if uncooked (and thus undercooked). While true morels themselves can be dangerous while uncooked, t…
