In my experience, the ai generate code has better error handling than code i write myself

I’m lazy so i only write if it’s important (and i think of it), the AI is less lazy and often codes quite defensively in my experience

Same here really, i plan the structure, then have ai throw it together, then i clean up and build off of that

I can’t say i particularly miss writing the mindless boilerplate stuff

I prefer the OG

“wow it’s only 14GB?”

I imagine mechahitler stuck in a loop sending digital high-fives to itself

To common people perhaps, but never in the field itself, much simpler and dumber systems than LLMs were still called AI

Yeah the whole config thing in that project was an eldritch horror of a legacy, too ingrained in both the services and tooling to be modified without massive rewrites

I remember when a senior developer where i worked was tired of connecting to the servers to check its configuration, so they added a public facing rest endpoint that just dumped the entire active config, including credentials and secrets

That was a smaller slip-up than exposing a database like that (he just forgot that the config contained secrets) but still funny that it happened

Rust isn’t memory safe because you can invoke another program that isn’t memory safe?

I remember trying to create websites with some fancy features that would work on all the major browsers. Every time i looked up some browser functionality it would basically say “supported by all major browsers except IE”, like every goddamn time

IE was waaay behind in functionality, but yeah it wasn’t particularly slow from what i can recall

1. Write a ton of code
2. Remove all newlines
3. Submit 1-line PR
4. Profit

“Oh shit, I’m going to have to work twice as hard for a couple of hours to make that back”
Tweets twice as often

What do you mean it’s impossible for it? I know how LLMs work but I don’t know if any such limitations

Write me a regex that matches a letter repeated four times, followed by a 3 or 4 digit number

Here’s your regex: ([a-zA-Z])\1{3}\d{3,4}

I have more than once typed shutdown instead of reboot when working on a remote machine… always fun

But i have to have my monitor on max brightness else i can’t see anything due to my dark theme!

God damn they beat me to it, and you beat me to tell them they beat me to it

It’s serverless, not servernone

No clue, all i know is that i never have to do more than that, and noone has managed to get it working on windows 🤷‍♂️

When i started learning programming, everything was always a pain to set up, needed to install weird IDEs from shady websites and they only worked half the time. Then a friend showed me linux where stuff just worked out of the box, just slap some code in a textfile and compile it, i never looked back (was working in c/c++ but from what i’ve seen it’s not much better for python)
