I understand that but I think it's in direct proportion of the money being raised, spent and thrown around, including the price tag, to replace such engineers. The more money you a…

I'm quite a bit older than that, so no. But I 100% get your point.

Leaving AI completely aside, it still amazes me that people finds "novel" the idea of removing highly-paid white collar intellectual workers (software developers or otherwise) comp…

I guess it depends on your definition of "too much", but also on your definition of "thinking". What I've found is that LLMs are excellent tools for: - Spitting out white collar co…

Those metrics are hugely misleading because they account for current fiscal year revenue and margins . For Xbox being what it is today, which is mostly about the subscription and n…

Painfully accurate. I've been "the engineer", "the new engineer", Mario and/or Luigi at some point in my career. I can attest, this kind of behavior is pervasive across the industr…

The reason why this won't work is right there, in the original link itself. They're allowing comments and obviously the first thing there is a scam. No way any goodwill on the Inte…

Matches my experience. Hard science may not have that many maximalists. Applied science and technology (electrical, electronics, computer science, even mechanical), I've found plen…

Well, as would be expected of the 1% of brilliant-mind CS professors. As for the remaining 99%, maybe they should stop pretending they know (and giving advice) about navigating a t…

And I welcome the change. In my long experience in academia, I've only found two types of practitioners: 1% are the absolutely brilliant minds that academia was originally created …

Most of the general, watered down tone of Corporate America that we love to hate comes from the legal department, usually at the late-stage point when they make all the decisions i…

Agree. I think that the complaint is about the dominating narrative in every radio channel you could possible pick from. It's similar to the "old Internet" argument: it's still the…

Not sure if everyone is going to get your joke, but it's a very good one.

Your guess is not wild at all, and the article implies that (at least until the payment popup shows up) My grandmother used to grow her own vegetables and fruits and had a minimal …

I agree it's not "entitlement" specifically but there's something there. I guess by now everyone has experienced that type of person that "tries to help" by copy/pasting a bunch of…

> All to say I just dont think CS principles down to the physics level is the root and all is an abstraction. Not my point either. I was just referring to the tooling changing over…

Once upon a time there were engineers that used software. Just like any other tool, and usually in combination with electronic, electrical and mechanical equipment, all of them bei…

I'm from the times when you had to purchase a separate chip to perform floating point math. It was called a math co-processor. [1] After a few generations (and over a decade) that …

Correct. If you were there, you'd remember the UTF8/Unicode fiasco (how long it took, how many people was both relying and struggling with it, and how they needed to cover it up af…

I agree, as I was one of them. Rightfully so, because PHP 20 years ago was the prime example of a complete disaster. Not just occasionally, there were long years of incompatibility…

Same as with the "good internet". It's still out there, only under layers and layers of mediocre and/or terrible stuff nobody has the time to go through.

Agreed. Also Lars Von Trier is objectively not involved in this (only in Dogma 95, which this is "based on").

Invariably, this "simpler life" type of reasoning is unmistakably the product of an urbanite. There's nothing romantic in progress-adverse, ostracized, uncivilized lifestyles. Ther…
