       "code is easy now" counterpoint, no code is not easy you are just choosing to view maintenance and reliability and everything the llm can't do as an externality that somehow doesn't matter. code is still very hard

       does anyone else see the contradictions between the two ideas "your expertise is what is really valuable" and "i've outsourced so much to the ai i wouldn't know how to do it myself anymore"

       techbros will really refer to an inanimate object as "she" before they'll respect the pronouns of an actual trans person

       i am convinced that something that's at play here is that our perception of time spent coding tends to be much greater than it actually is, while perception of time spent prompting the machine tends to be much less, leading to a perception of time saved that doesn't match reality

       when you're playing the slot machines you remember the time that coins spilled out all over the floor, but you don't remember all the times you pulled the lever and nothing happened. this does not mean playing the slot machines is a good way of making money!

       but what if you could get the dopamine hit from playing slots while still going to work and being a good corporate drone? hmmm...
