Statistically and realistically this relationship isn’t going to last btw.

Many of my friends, especially women friends, didn’t want kids. We’re certain they would never want kids. They pretty much all now have kids, multiple kids.

You guys are kids. Don’t forget that.

Absolutely 100% too young. When you’re 27 you’ll look back at when you were 22 and think you were so dumb compared to now. When you’re 32 you’ll think you were dumb at 27, and that at 22 you were an absolute imbecile.

At 22 you’re basically still a teenager mentally. Making major permanently life altering decisions at 22 is a terrible idea. There’s no need to get a vasectomy until you’ve got kids and don’t want any more imo. There are plenty of non-permanent contraception options for until then.

Not to mention getting a vasectomy will massively decrease your potential wife pool.

It was the same for Biden, why did no-one care then?

What surprises me is that Samsung isn’t trying to get better hardware to get more market share.

You say this about the company that invented folding screen phones? lol

I get what you’re saying, but also see the other side - these services exist and aren’t ever going away, so the level of knowledge you need about these to use them at least competently is significantly reduced.

What their existence does mean is that there are thousands of developers who wouldn’t ever touch or learn any of this stuff previously are now actually learning it and using it. That’s a positive thing. Not everyone needs to be an expert on the inner workings of everything that a service provides unless you’re specifically looking for an expert.

Also……people lie on CVs and cover letters. If your ad has buzzwords and technology X, Y, and Z, then you should expect people with little to no knowledge of at least one of those things to have all 3 on their resume.

Tl;dr:

It said the two people alleged the suspected use of X’s algorithm for the “purposes of foreign interference.” It didn’t detail the alleged interference or how the algorithm was allegedly used.

The 2 people are politicians, and you’d assume they’re the sore-loser type looking for someone to blame for their loss. Most likely a nothing-sauce.

Adding context is “knowing more” for a computer program.

Maybe it’s different in VS code vs regular VS, because I never get issues like what you’re describing in VS. Haven’t really used it in VS Code.

DLSS is applied in the rendering pipeline before post processing effects. It is part of the rendering pipeline.

You clearly don’t know what you’re talking about. We’re done here.

Interesting downvotes, especially how there are more than there are upvotes.

Do people think “junior” and “senior” here just relate to age and/or time in the workplace? Someone could work in software dev for 20 years and still be a junior dev. It’s knowledge and skill level based, not just time-in-industry based.

They’re tools that can help a junior engineer and a senior engineer with their job.

Given a database, AI can probably write a data access layer in whatever language you want quicker than a junior developer could.

They’re also bad at that though, because if you don’t know that stuff then you don’t know if what it’s telling you is right or wrong.

The reason it goes down a “really bad path” is that it’s basically glorified autocomplete. It doesn’t know anything.

Not quite true - GitHub Copilot in VS for example can be given access to your entire repo/project/etc and it then “knows” how things tie together and work together, so it can get more context for its suggestions and created code.

I’ve found it to be great at writing unit tests too.

I use github copilot in VS and it’s fantastic. It just throws up suggestions for code completions and entire functions etc, and is easily ignored if you just want to do it yourself, but in my experience it’s very good.

Like you said, using it to get the meat and bones of an application from scratch is fantastic. I’ve used it to make some awesome little command line programs for some of my less technical co-workers to use for frequent tasks, and then even got it to make a nice GUI over the top of it. Takes like 10% of the time it would have taken me to do it - you just need to know how to use it, like with any other tool.

Sounds like you just need to find a better way to use AI in your workflows.

Github Copilot in Visual Studio for example is fantastic and offers suggestions including entire functions that often do exactly what you wanted it to do, because it has the context of all of your code (if you give it that, of course).

“Using something that you’re not experienced with and haven’t yet worked out how to best integrate into your workflow slows some people down”

Wow, what an insight! More at 8!

As I said on this article when it was posted to another instance:

AI is a tool to use. Like with all tools, there are right ways and wrong ways and inefficient ways and all other ways to use them. You can’t say that they slow people down as a whole just because some people get slowed down.

Just like Stack Overflow then haha. It’s usually either

“I copied this persons code exactly, why doesn’t it work in my completely different codebase?”

or

“I copied this persons code exactly and it works in mine! I don’t want to touch it in case I break it cause I don’t get it”

haha

If you already know what you’re doing, AI generating code is redundant.

Nah, it can be really useful for people who do know what they’re doing as it can be used to generate the “charlie work” (IASIP reference if you don’t know) things like unit tests and documentation and things like that pretty damn well.

Sorry but a study of 16 developers isn’t a big enough sample to get any meaningful data, especially given the massive range of skills and levels of development.

I’m a developer and I use AI - not much, but when I think it can help based on the suggestions that it gives me since it’s integrated into visual studio. It doesn’t slow me down, it speeds me up. It could slow you down if you rely on it to do everything, but in that case you’re just a bad or lazy developer.

AI is a tool to use. Like with all tools, there are right ways and wrong ways and inefficient ways and all other ways to use them. You can’t say that they slow people down as a whole just because they slow some people down.

and b. this data is easy to rebuild over time.

You say that, but some shows and movies are getting very hard to find these days. I lost one show to an external HDD that died, and I have never been able to find it again :(. That’s part of the reason I recently went to a DAS in my setup instead of a NAS - backblaze backs the entire 40TB DAS up for ~$90 a year!

You got them all in uncompressed 8K or something!? How on earth does it take up that much space?
