ChatGPT is pretty awful for code in my experience. I actually disabled it in Cursor. Copilot is also garbage (because it is sorta just ChatGPT).

I think old people in the US should do this too. I actually think it would have a net positive impact.
JDV probably. Unfortunately.
Hmm, I would get hired and then just not show up. Make them scramble.
I wonder if they’re working on a way to let Trump burn and have JD Vance pick up the torch.
What are the gains?
Everyone I know with PhDs don’t really get paid more for doing the same job(s) I do.
And some are in research so it’s just a constant stress of continuing to get funding and stuff.
Similar! I went from owning zero to three and have a class scheduled to get my carry permit.
Despite common belief…we have guns.
Holy crap that library sounds awesome.
Software engineering. Unfortunately, at the moment, I am dealing with issues of renewing my passport :/
I really hope a couple of them just let some files flow through and they make the leak.
I’ve been a naturalized citizen of the US for 99% of my life.
I am fully expecting that within the next year or so I’ll lose my naturalization. Not because of a criminal record (I have none), but because I’m not white enough.
I am currently looking at applying for a work visa in Canada with longer term plans to move to the EU. Frankly, any and all “plan b” ideas I’m looking into.
Sucks because I have to uproot my family, too. They are white. I still don’t know if they fully comprehend what it is like day to day.
Like, I was just going grocery shopping the other day and had an unmarked van behind me for what felt like an awkwardly long time. I immediately started formulating escape plans. I drove an extra long route to the store just to make sure I wasn’t being followed. Once I parked I sat in my car an extra few minutes to observe if any other suspicious vehicles also parked and if anybody got out. I made sure to message my wife that I parked, that I was on my way into the store, that I was 25%/50%/75% done getting items, that I was checking out, that I was back in the car and headed home.
These are not thoughts I should have to have. It sucks.
I’m also armed, but let’s be honest, I can probably only take 1-2 gestapo out before I’m done for and there’d be no getting away with it long-term.

Oregon here, it has seemed oddly humid feeling to me personally. I’m super sensitive to humidity and heat though.
It isn’t like the south, but definitely more than I recall historically.
It rained today randomly so that doesn’t help either.
Hello also from the Portland-ish area. Thanks for all you do.
This is not how I wanted to start my week.
Super interesting. Thanks!
We didn’t learn to read music (I learned from separate piano lessons…)
They just had diagrams of where to put your fingers and then the letters of the note, not actual notes on a clef…
I pretend to use it, but struggle. Like, I’ll say it got me 80% of the way there but then I spend the rest of the day reviewing, fixing comments, adjusting unit tests…
…when secretly I was code complete in like 1-2 hours so I can just chill the rest of the day.
Management doesn’t seem to question it because AI, and I’m pretty sure everyone else on my team is doing it too so we’ve sort of collectively created a low bar of expectations of output.
