There is a human in the loop that either prompted the agent or approved the code. So it doesn't matter if the AI is accountable or not.

You don't want to live in a society where an increasingly large percentage of the population have nothing to lose. Regardless of whether it benefits our industry or socioeconomic s…

The easy infographic generation scares me on the implications for society.

I can't describe how fast my eyes glazed over seeing all those numbers. The cow was very cute.

I can think of one valuable use-case: parsing through JSON responses for APIs with poor fields/response documentation -- especially if you have to parse through a ton of informatio…

Seriously. Its not like alternatively I can code for 8 straight hours. I treat meetings like breaks for the most part.

This is incredibly passive aggressive lol.

I agree. Its a coin flip. We don't know what the long term effects of COVID are, we don't know what the long term effects of the vaccine are. I'd argue that we know more about what…

What good does blame do if the only thing that can potentially change the course is public policy? I find it a lot harder trying to convince everyone to change versus forcing every…

I think that's where the confusion lies. Are people suggesting someone to write their own auth from the ground up, or write auth in coordination with their stack's auth library of …

I'd rather the money and fines flow to the US government, not random hacker groups.

I've had my variable annual bonus converted into a permanent salary increase. I will say I like this a lot more.

Man, people really hate Mongo. We use it for a very specific use case and its been perfect for us when we need raw speed over everything. Data loss is tolerable.

Its 50/50. Either you crack it or you don't.

Now convince a place that isn't doing this to spend time and resources to put this into place. 'Ship fast and break things' is one of the best and worst cultures in the tech indust…

Being 100% sedentary + eating less calories is pretty difficult. For some reason unbeknownst to me, exercise makes eating less a lot easier.

"I can't help but groan at some of the "obvious" health and weight loss platitudes that get smugly thrown around." On the flip side, the people that are told this are the ones that…

This is pretty much my setup. Higher quality TN panels don't have that much of a dropoff from median quality IPS panels.

I agree. Which is why its hilarious whenever I ask around for recommendations, especially on Reddit, everyone tries to peg it as a non issue. As if your head never moves and you on…

When I took Algorithms II in college at a top 10 CS program, our entire class involved ZERO coding or programming of any sort.
