  • It's much better than commit messages like "WIP", "Quick fix", "Refactoring" and other mental diarrhea every developer is guilty of.

  • Nope.

  • If you're a prude then yes. If you're a normal human - no.

  • Yeah, there's nothing to argue about - most of the world has a lower age of consent than murican prudes.

  • Ahaha! Oh my... American prudes and their perverted views...

  • They are not children, that's the thing.

  • Did you know that many states in the US have more gun deaths per capita than Ukraine during an active war?

  • And look at what kind of mess they ended up!

  • You see, that's the difference between US and UK - the so called "Gestapo's joy division" stops a lot of extremist plots. That's why you have Trump and we don't.

  • It's not the 18th century anymore, there are no classes.

  • But people can sue you for that, AI can't.

  • Tesla's share price is up 40% in just one month. You can't short when it's rising, unless you want to lose shitloads of money. It's also half way through to full recovery, which should happen within a month more.

    What is happening is that everyone who were panic selling lost their money, those who were buying from panicking lemmings got already rich. 40% returns in one month is just fucking bonkers!

  • They are extremely useful for software development. My personal choice is locally running qwen3 used through AI assistant in JetBrains IDEs (in offline mode). Here is what qwen3 is really good at:

    • Writing unit tests. The result is not necessarily perfect, but it handles test setup and descriptions really well, and these two take the most time. Fixing some broken asserts takes a minute or two.
    • Writing good commit messages based on actual code changes. It is a good practice to make atomic commits while working on a task and coming up with commit messages every 10-30 minutes is just depressing after a while.
    • Generating boilerplate code. You should definitely use templates and code generators, but it's not always possible. Well, Qwen is always there to help!
    • Inline documentation. It usually generates decent XDoc comments based on your function/method code. It's a really helpful starting point for library developers.
    • It provides auto-complete on steroids and can complete not only the next "word", but the whole line or even multiple lines of code based on your existing code base. It gets especially helpful when doing data transformations.

    What it is not good at:

    • Doing programming for you. If you ask LLM to create code from scratch for you, it's no different than copy pasting random bullshit from Stack Overflow.
    • Working on slow machines - a good LLM requires at least a high end desktop GPU like RTX5080/5090. If you don't have such a GPU, you'll have to rely on a cloud based solution, which can cost a lot and raises a lot of questions about privacy, security and compliance.

    LLM is a tool in your arsenal, just like other tools like IDEs, CI/CD, test runners, etc. And you need to learn how to use all these tools effectively. LLMs are really great at detecting patterns, so if you feed them some code and ask them to do something new with it based on patterns inside, you'll get great results. But if you ask for random shit, you'll get random shit.

  • Being right just half a time is much better than most people can do.

  • Anime doesn't sexualise underage people, because until the 2023 age of consent in Japan was 13. It's 16 now, so for American prudes it's still underage. Just don't forget that in most of the world the age of consent is much much lower than in the US.

    And if anything, this meme is a cultural appropriation as the American view is being pushed on another culture. If you don't want to learn about and accept foreign culture - watch Marvell movies instead.

  • What are you talking about? Tesla's stock price is coming back up in line with everyone else. They're actually doing much better than more woke companies like Apple.

  • Lol wut?

  • What do you mean "build"? It's part of the development process.

  • And?
