It’s been more than 3 years since we started, and the metrics are stable, slight improvement even but that could be more experience or better models or anything. No apocalypse.

Points per sprint, features shipped, test coverage. Defects remain unchanged.

I mean, I do leet code semi-regularly, so I’m not too worried about getting rusty. Writing tests is boring as hell, the AI does a decent enough job for at least 90% of them.

Yeah, I understand that, but I kind of enjoy some lively discussions. Plus I want to avoid creating my own echo chamber.

I very much enjoy using AI for all the biloilerplate, test cases, suggestions, etc. It really makes me more productive, hard metrics behind it. Nobody is forcing me to, they just provide the license and let us use our judgment.

I honestly can’t think of a project where 0% AI would be better. For 100% maybe a very trivial PoC, but even that would require at least a code revision.

So, as with many things, use in moderation is fine.

I don’t recognize anyone, I don’t focus on who says stuff but what is said. I ignore the user and the instance (like ignoring ads on websites) and read the content. Only when it’s uncanny pro Russia I check if it’s an ml user. I never block or tag, too much work.

Doesn’t stackoverflow do that? Or some other popular website… Slashdot?

Same here. And the same for reddit, I was surprised when I learned reddit had avatars. I’m surprised that lemmy has them, too.

That ship has sailed. The question is how to use AI to code, for every project there’s a sweet spot and it rarely is 0% or 100%.

Welcome to the internet.

I’m going to run out of popcorn…

Nah, it’s just wrong. Like, “you don’t even speak you native language correctly” wrong.

Glad to be of help

Same here. Matches his hat. And pants.

Doesn’t processing 5 rupees cost more than the fee itself?

Hard disagree on the first two, a maybe on the kitchen appliances.

Smartwatches are awesome. I can read a notification without getting my phone. Activity tracking. Sleep analysis. Payments. Music. GPS. Phone calls. Messages. All for under 200 euros new (I just upgraded to a refurbished Samsung Classic 6 this week for 110 euros including shipping). A basic Chinese one with a a bit fewer functions can be found for 20.

Smart Lightbulbs have allowed my family to not touch a light switch for the last 5 years. Every room turns the lights on based on presence, time of day, day of the week, air quality or status of the garbage bins or what’s playing on the TV. Took a few weeks to get it dialed in to the preferences of everyone and has been running reliably since then. Bright white during the day (where needed), cozy warm dim in the evening, red in the middle of the night when you go to the bathroom, unicorn vomit for the kids birthday party. They are like 10 euros a piece, I don’t have dumb Lightbulbs anywhere. Led strips add for fun effects like sunrise, aurora or fire.

Kitchen appliances are a bit more convenient. I can start the dishwasher when there’s excess solar, preheat the oven when heading home with frozen pizzas or blink the whole house lights blue if someone left the fridge open. Definitely nice to have, probably not life changing. Fridges with screens and AI and shit, or anything that REQUIRES an app… yeah, pass.

It’s a question.

“How many” is a question that expects a number, not a country.

Man, the education cuts are really taking a toll…

Do you need some crayons?

How many cars are sold per year? The answer is the US.

Am I having an aneurysm or are you?
