Make better*

Man all I got was $67 😔

I think the biggest thing aboot poutine isnt that poutine is amazing. It’s that it unlocked some amazing fusions.

Butter chicken poutine.
Chicken shawarma poutine.
Vindaloo poutine.

It’s all good.

If it’s saucy and tastes good with cheese, poutine it. It will be amazing.

You are lucky if you can get it to even cite wikipedia. I found a lot of the time I can’t even find the “facts” it pulls from the source it cites at all.

Which is probably also a lot of us. We were once interested but is no longer.

Maybe but the process is really annoying. I have to backup my 4tb library, make the switch, if it doesnt work I have to revert.

I don’t have a spare 6tb drive either so i would need to buy one.

Besides, i already have a plex lifetime membership so most of the new changes do not affect me.

I could just risk it and do the upgrade raw, but I would be pretty upset if I lost my data due to the switch.

I don’t have time.

And then you spend 4 hours building from source /s

The problem I find is it can take a year or longer before you learn what is idiomatic and what isn’t and it’s not always obvious. You can ask colleges of course but it can slow down development drastically if you need to ask often. Most times, you don’t have the luxury of practicing the language for a year before you ship code so you can use AI to get a general sense of what is best practice in that language. Worst case if AI gets it wrong, it will get caught in review.

As for understanding code bases, I’m working in code bases with millions of lines of code. Before AI I would usually ask someone to point me in the general vicinity or spend 30 minutes trying to find the right ballpark to look at for a particular thing. With AI, it can usually find it in 5 minutes or less. I still learn where the code lives if I need to reference it again in the future so I don’t really see much of a downside here other than that I get to save a chunk of time from having to pore through hundreds of source files.

Yep

I’m still writing 90% of my code by hand at work. I think if you have total or close to total mastery in your domain, you should probably work faster than AI.

It takes a while for AI to generate code (Opus is pretty slow) and then you have to go review it and do rounds and rounds of fixes. It might be faster to use AI if there were unknowns or if you werent quite sure how to write the code. Otherwise I just find it faster to write it myself.

That being said I do use AI under some soecific circumstances:

1. im working in a code base or area of code im unfamiliar with
2. Im working in a language in unfamiliar with
3. prototyping ideas
4. generating boilerplate heavy code

For 1. And 2. I dont usually have ai write code for me. I would just ask it questions like “how do I write X in an idiomatic way in language Y”.

For 3, I have it generate code that I then toss and rewrite if the prototype works.

For 4, this is rare in a good code base. Most of the boiler plate heavy code at work is in unit tests.

I skipped like 90% of the dialog on my first play through. In retrospect that was kind of funny since I only had an inkling of what was going on story wise. I did end up playing the game like 4 times so I did read more of it later.

Just restart the app every day /s

I’m a guy and I love your content… Although I’m queer.

To ease your fear slightly, iCloud does give you a 30 day window of file history so you can undo an accident file deletion. This is pretty standard across cloud storage solutions.

I think for a SF based company 200 - 250k salary is typical for even a senior engineer.

Apparently it just tells your browser to refresh after x seconds.

Actually tru. Damn preprocessors.

Awwww.

This is like a mirror of my cat who loves his stuffed dog.
