oof this is brutal. but a good analysis.

at the end of the day it, no matter what good uses people might have for this tech, it's hard to reconcile the fact that it's also being used by the worst possible people, with the worst possible intentions, in the worst possible ways.

this matches my experience too. good IDEs or editors with LSP support allll the way.

also wanna add that it's weird to me that we turn to LLMs to generate mountains of boilerplate instead of... y'know, fixing our damn tools in the first place (or using them correctly, or to their fullest) so that said boilerplate is unnecessary. abstractions have always been a thing. it seems so inefficient.

I wish people stopped treating these fucking things as a knowledge source, let alone a reliable one. By definition they cannot distinguish facts, only spit out statistically correct-sounding text.

Are they of help to your particular task? Cool, hope the model you're using hasn't been trained on stolen art, or doesn't rely on traumatizing workers on the global south (who are paid pennies btw) to function.

Also, y'know, don't throw gasoline to an already burning planet if possible. You might think you need to use a GPT for a particular task or funny meme, but chances are you actually don't.

That's about it for me I think.

edit: when i say "you" in this post i don't mean actually you OP, i mean in general. sorry if this seems rambly im sleep deprived as fuckj woooooo

i am close to finishing development of a construct capable of mapping the noösphere, locating concepts within it and accelerating them beyond sapient comprehension, thus permanently and irreversibly erasing them from our consciousness

what would stop you from writing a quick proof of concept in each language to see how they feel?

no other platform gives as much of a shit as valve does about linux gaming. proton made pretty much every windows game in my library Just Work™ (and no, just wine still isn't enough), meanwhile tim sweeney is actively hostile to linux as a platform.
