  • Everything went from kinda expensive to really expensive.

  • There is a semi-popular opinion here in Canada that we should also be adding an export tax to goods the US has no other place to source except from Canada. The US absolutely has to buy Canadian softwood lumber for Home construction. How about a 10% export tax, have fun building expensive houses.

  • It's an inference model. It does not understand code no matter how much context it has. It can however output the most probable solution based on the context it has.

  • TIL there is a law called Marchetti's Constant. Humans only tolerate commutes of less than ~1 hour. Housing outside that limit will fail.

  • We have had a declining birth rate every year since 1973. Our economy would have dried up and died if we didn't have a way to grow and capitalism is based on the principle of infinite growth. Cons are foaming at the mouth trying to destroy this place.

    Is there like a cheat code for dating apps?

    Jump

  • After a long discussion with all of my co-workers comparing everyone's experience, it would be safe to assume that they do not work effectively. They are a commercial product whose entire purpose is to make money. The algorithms are designed to keep people on the app as long as possible. They don't work on purpose. Every single person in the discussion that met their SO on an app, were marched because some sort of fluke or exception. It only works when the pattern is broken. We were even calling people's SOs up to hear their full stories.

  • What are your stories like?

  • The difference is chaos. ADHD brains are trying to manage the chaotic thoughts but are not doing a great job. You are just witnessing the struggle.

  • "AI is going to replace you."

    Jump

  • Ai will never grow into a Sr. Software Developer they will just code worse than the worst developer at your company. Unless they magically learn how to design good architecture, they won't replace people in the long term. They are currently just creating more work overall by giving people the ability to create quick and dirty bad code. I inherited a tool vibe coded by a Jr. that will take me twice as long to fix it as it did to for them to make it. I am trying to convince my boss to let me throw it away and start fresh because it will save time but it is a hard sell.

  • Companies That Tried to Save Money With AI Are Now Spending a Fortune Hiring People to Fix Its Mistakes

    Jump

  • The biggest point is that you must be an expert in the field you are using it in. I rarely get fooled by hallucinations and stupid bugs because they are glaringly obvious to me. The best use case is having the llm write code for using a library that has poor documentation, that am going to use once, and I am too lazy to learn. These tools are scary when used by juniors, they are creating more work for everyone by using llms to code. I just imagine myself using this when I was a fresh grad, it is terrifying. It would have only been one step up from vibe coding.

  • I had CS exams that were coding only that i had to do on paper. For multiple classes. There is no debugging on paper.

  • I work in tech and there are a lot of trans people in the industry, 10% of my company are trans. I do live in a country where it is safe to be trans person, so maybe people are more open about it.
