They mean they feel intellectually superior to their peers and want to humble brag about it.

No. Im the dumbest person in the room, mate. It means I have to deal with you all day. Sigh.

Well, at least one of those statements is probably true.

Oh man, I’d love your config if you were willing to share, that looks sweet

Well "little break" - I forked ghostty and re-wrote parts of it for Metal and a bunch of new uniforms and iChannels - so my config may not work for you, but here is everything config wise I have running right now in full: https://s.h4x.club/NQuG6pZN

I love AI for setting up my linux desktop, or showing me the correct settings for aws, or debugging a powerbi subscription, or finding out why an integration stopped working. It is great for deploying, quickly creating a bunch of systemd configs, sets up pgbouncer, all this tedious time consuming support and consultant stuff.

Coding, not so much.

Programming stopped feeling fun for me once MBAs and bean counters took over. There's rarely time to write thoughtful code anymore. Even convincing management to invest in a sane architecture feels like an endless uphill battle. Engineer teams are nothing but an annoying expense on the balance sheet and the goal is to cram as many features, as quickly as possible to get the sale. That's exactly why I'm happy to use e…

I err, don’t think you’re saying what you think you’re saying.

Omg you instigator, you are this person! Let me just spell it out and end this. Im an idiot man, I dont try to project intelligence, I just listen and act... and sometimes comment on the negative behavior of others, which comes from lived experience. Appreciate you being an example of antagonistically wasting someone's time because of what? An assumption of what I meant? wow.

This write-up has good ideas but gives me the "AI-generated reading fatigue." Things that can cleanly be expressed in 1-2 sentences are whole paragraphs, often with examples that seem unnecessary or unrealistic. There are also some wrong claims like below: > The Hacker News front page alone is enough to give you whiplash. One day it's "Show HN: Autonomous Research Swarm" and the next it's "Ask HN: How will AI swarms…

> Things that can cleanly be expressed in 1-2 sentences are whole paragraphs Perhaps the author just likes to write? I've only just recently started blogging more, but I unexpectedly started to really enjoy writing and am hoping to have my posts be more of a "story". Different people have different writing styles. It's not a problem, it's just that you prefer reading posts that are straight to the point.
