Even though Machia says he would still vote for Trump, the recent crackdown has prompted a deeper reckoning within his community

Umm, okay, no sympathy then. Burn.

I don't even think it'll help Tesla. Nobody I know, myself included, ever plan to give Tesla business ever again and we've all sold our Tesla's within the last 5 months.

Lawyers require a system of law, we have none

That would be hilarious. Also reminds me of the civil war.

I'm with you there, I guess I don't fully disagree. I have coworkers who use AI for like 80% of their work and I don't get it. Half the time I feel like they spend more time figuring out what it did and fixing it versus they could've done it themselves from scratch faster (...or maybe they couldn't?)

I'd say my use is closer to 10% for raw code and maybe 25% for intelligent tab completions. The black box of outputs just kinda weirds me out, even if I can see a diff.

Well it's intentional duplication because they get deployed to separate instances, different resources types, different regions, using different resources, different logic, and different source triggers/types, and different destinations.

So I disagree. Still, fuck Copilot.

Why do you think prolonging 2029+ won't work?

And even if it doesn't work, the entire government has been gutted and we still have the entire GOP and right of center Dems to deal with.

I hope they all get doxxed and either player two'd or at the very least can't show their faces publicly anywhere ever again.

I agree Copilot is trash and everything it generates is garbage. I have no clue how anyone uses it with any effectiveness. But I've had luck with Claude 3.7 in some aspects of code.

Still seems to falter heavily with anything CSS though.

What's nice is, say I have to create 10 data processing scripts that are somewhat similar but not exactly similar, I can create one and then hand the task to AI to iterate on and verify for the other 9 while I work on something else. It's a major time saver in that regard.

I still don't think it replaces a developer, but for senior-level and above, when deployed wisely, I think it can reduce tediousness.

I nearly have, or at least reduced it by well over 50%. Fuck 'em.

Every time I go to SO I have to deal with CloudFlare checks or captchas. I'm not genuinely not sure why, but it has kept me from clicking SO links from search engines first. Not even using a VPN. Kind of odd.

I was in the same boat about...3mos ago. But recent tooling is kind of making me rethink things. And to be honest I'm kind of surprised. I'm fairly anti-AI.

Is it perfect? Fuck no. But with the right prompts and gates, I'm genuinely surprised. Yes, I still have to tweak, but we're talking entire features being 80% stubbed in sub 1 minute. More if I want it to test and iterate.

My major concern is the people doing this and not reviewing the code and shipping it. Because it definitely needs massaging...ESPECIALLY for security reasons.
