Ok, there are some reasonable arguments against it, primarily preferring permanent standard time instead (not that they want to keep changing the clock): - Safety for children walking to school during winter months (would get light at 8-8:30) - Standard time might align better with our biology

@trashh_dev Please yes. And who on earth voted against this? 117 were like “nah, I love changing the time twice per year!”

Have you ever had a loop that, that, um, that you had, uh, that you had to, you could, you do, you wit, you wanted it to run so much, you could prompt so much you could ship anything

@moonsandhues First: this is cool! Second: bug report: on iOS in Brave browser tapping in the console to bring up the keyboard brings up the keyboard only briefly before it hides again. Safari works though.

Today I'm launching gal-ler-y.com We are still in beta so right now we just have an events calendar that will be listing all future IRL events targeted towards art hoes, e-girls, and tech bros. With that, we also have a fun MS Paint style drawing pad where you can share your scribbles. There are many more things coming to the platform including selling and buying of art, user-curated art feeds, and much more. Play around with our website and feel free to share feedback! Follow me and @GalleryExe to keep up with our art hoe antics.

If you never cared about the code, you never were a software engineer. Imagine a mathematician saying, "I never cared about math", or a basketball player saying, "I never cared about basketball, just the score."

> men are often mean, incredibly emotional I haven’t been on X long enough to know how accurate this is, but I can see it, and it’s pretty funny because men are characteristically supposed to be the less emotional of the sexes. Then again perhaps women are more skilled socially, and it shows?

having a largely male audience is very difficult. men are often mean, incredibly emotional, and entitled as viewers. they need to take a chill pill

Writing high-quality, performant software is more important than ever with how much memory prices have skyrocketed, and are expected to continue increasing into 2027. Say no to slop pangoly.com/en/price-trend…

“Doing a good job makes you the bottleneck” Yes, and Carl Benz was the “bottleneck” for the design of the first gas automobile. Charles Babbage was the “bottleneck” for the design of the Analytical Engine. The market tolerates “bottlenecks” when the time spent is worthwhile, and when the fruit cannot be produced in other more efficient ways. Fully “automatic programming” does not produce the same fruit that hand programming (including that with LLM assistance) does, because at the bare minimum, a human must verify that each version of the software does something of value *correctly* (for nontrivial and especially novel problems, there is not enough information content in the prompt + statistical inference to guarantee this). This is necessarily true because the end user is a human who wanted to use the software to do something of value for them. Literally 100% of the economic value comes from human desire.

It is my belief that many devs right now are not maximizing what they can do with automatic programming because they still look at the code. Doing it makes you the bottleneck. Your time is better invested in new ideas, QA, design, and asking yourself what is your goal.

Pretty sure I completely agree with your take. The first engine is a first pass (getting it to work well enough), and from there you can start to understand the problem better and refine and simplify… Is that aligned with your view? I think most projects head in the opposite direction.

There’s a degree of simplicity that only rears its head out of complexity. Think the image of the raptor engine. The first solution may be complex and that’s fine, but knowing when to simplify is important.

Let’s see: - Spend a few minutes here and there on introspection to have a better chance of moving in the right direction (not to mention probably becoming a better person). - Zero introspection and waste possibly years moving in the wrong direction. Yep, screw introspection. People are wild.

I’m sure many people have seen this several times over, but has anyone mentioned how great it would be to strive for something like this in the progression of the software we write? Am I foolish to think so? Maybe. Maybe not.

@ThePrimeagen Oh… this is atrocious. Up and Right are more commonly increasing values, not increasing “goodness”. Granted there are exceptions, but I don’t like this at all.

@leeovery @vboykis I think you’re right, so perhaps most of the programmers who fall under the do-not-enjoy category were never very good at it. In some cases they might have just fallen out of love with it for one reason or another.

@vboykis How interesting! I can’t see how a programmer who doesn’t love programming becomes competent. I learnt because I loved it and became addicted. I still love the process of engineering even though I rarely write the code anymore.

Had a realization as I was reading an interview with someone who loves programming recently: some of the hype over LLMs is because many programmers don’t enjoy programming and are relieved not to have to do it anymore
