I've never lost respect for users on a platform faster than all the AI and GPT shills on here.

Holy shit, y'all are delulu.

Well, I don‘t use it for coding but it‘s great for cases like this when I don‘t know what it means to call someone "shills". The translator is pretty useless for that.

If you mean with shills people, don't be so judgemental grandpa. We both know, before end of this year even you'll do tabtabtab. At least, if using codeium. You can't ignore it forever.

@Demolishun I wanted to be nicer. The previous response was less nice and he didn't deserve that. I'm self correcting.

I'm just tired because of the AI hate while I use it successfully every day and it's proven to be usefull as autocomplete. Also, for many things you can use it instead of Google. I thought we would be passed the AI hating right now and accept it's here, and it's here to stay.

@jestdotty if it's lazy depends on person doing it. I use the time I spared to do the next thing. It makes much more productive. Maybe even opposite of lazy.

@retoor lazy isn't bad. it's fundamentally efficient

it's evolutionarily congruent. you want more meaningful results for less work

people use lazy as a pejorative but it's a good thing. 20/80 rule

it's used as a pejorative because we're all poisoned by our food... so body can't expend enough resources to finish jack shit it started cuz it's carrying too high a load already would be my guess

but in nature lazy is good

@jestdotty Is it lazy to do pre-emptive work so you can AFK for the next X hours? e.g. you can see the next feature coming up so you prep the code for it when working on the current feature so it will take 10 minutes, but they budgeted 8 hours for the new one

@BordedDev ye

works til they give you like x30 the work and don't pay you x30 the amount tho

@jestdotty Sure, got burned with that when I started, somehow I still manage to outperform most coders I've worked with just by planning the structure and envisioning how things should™️work. Also, that's why you don't push the “10 minutes of code” until the end of the day, or stretch it out until next week. You can even setup a cron for running the git push

@jestdotty Eh it's not really, people don't check how long I took other than check ticket status during standup. It's not in-depth planning, it's just the rough code layout, I do try to make my code very adaptable and have no fear of touching “unrelated” code to make it work better.

Still, it's a “free” day off

e.g. working on my mmo project, the networking stack is multiple libraries

@jestdotty Well I always have plenty to do, if I feel like working, I'll refactor/clean up since you'll never get a ticket for it (but can be added once you're done with it), or I just make it a lighter workday

@retoor I sure can ignore it. I've disabled it on every system I use and ignore it on Google searches. I have no need for it. Most especially not for my work.

The one time I paid attention to it on a Google search, it suggested I do something that would very likely end with me being sliced by a guitar string.

@cuddlyogre AI can change and it does. Also, it shows sources under it. He didn't pull it out of his ass. Don't see the issue.

regarding conversation above me about working. I would say, work as long/short as you want but do work hard. Time goes faster. But that's easy when liking your job I guess. But work for yourself, not to please the employer. The employer has normally no idea who actually works the hardest. I once saw the hardest worker got fired first when the company went bad financially.

@retoor The issue is that it suggested, quite confidently, I cut a piece of wire under tension potentially causing me an awful injury.

I know I'm not going to do something so foolish, but someone else will do this and wind up with a nasty scar.

Will Google face consequences for it? No they won't.

@cuddlyogre I cut my strings with a wire cutter when I need to change them, I just make sure to remove the tension first and pin the wire down where I'm cutting. But you're right, if not done carefully, it can embed the string into your bone.

@retoor That's very true, it's of the reasons I'm vocal about making additional enhancements. All the clients except the current one have been happy for the extra enhancements and yeah, time goes quick. The current client has an incompetent PM, so I want to avoid touching the code as much as possible.

@cuddlyogre oh, it's dangerous? Heh 😂 Yh, that's gpt. It tells always only half you need to know. 😂 You have to specify explicitly that you don't want to be injured while writing the prompt 😂😁
