AI coding agent ends up disabling the test and voila all tests are passing now

Will AI yield more school dropouts?

Will states uphold their compulsory education laws? Are they rooted in developmental psychology or backed by popular vote?

[bb @brrrianb]

Which is more challenging to face? F1-scores from a neural network, or real-world nondeterministic distributed systems.

Those type of responses are.. not fun.. when I am actively verifying the work that I instruct it to do.

However, it hits different when using it for learning vs getting stuff done.

Still incredibly useful either way!

The deeper I get into it with the LLM asking it to help me learn XYZ, the more I start thinking for myself…

Can’t quite tell if the model is BS’ing me, or if this is some strange way of “helping me learn”.

[bb @brrrianb]

At the start, things are simplified / glossed over / omitted. Only to get into them later on..

But it gets to a point where I’m really thinking about it: “wait, but…” / “actually, I think..” followed by the dreaded: “You are absolutely, 100% correct.”

@GeoffreyHuntley How’d it do?

[bb @brrrianb]

Checking unbounded TLA+ models? Warm up those “rm -rf” keystrokes..

When the AIs take over, humans will still be here just trying to perfect Metal Earth projects

@techpoodle My first programming book was Learn C in 24 Hours…

@Steve_Yegge @michaelshuffett Staring at https://t.co/are42eTMaZ watching the “$ remaining” slowly drain… 😭

Kind of feeling like AI is pay-to-play

[bb @brrrianb]

When you press Enter key… does it insert a \n or does it “make it go!”…?

This is a simple unsolved problem.

Either standardize and make all humans converge. Or… train an AI to predict this intent?

It was a breath of fresh air to hear @dhh normalize writing code in anger

…with your own god damn fingers 👌

[bb @brrrianb]

When will we accept what AI is?

Its uplift—which we obviously need to migrate to.

Its limits—we are not getting flying cars or immortality for a very, very long time…

Can someone please define so we can get on with our merry way?

GDDR6X is really GQDR6X
GDDR7 is really G3/2R7

You don’t rise to the occasion, you fall to your level of training

Just train hard and chill out

UltraScale component mode is just native mode asynchronous in disguise
