[Eric S. Raymond @esrtweet]

Programming with AI assistance is very revealing. It turns out I'm not quite who I thought I was.

There are a lot of programmers out there who have a tremendous amount of ego and identity invested in the craft of coding. In knowing how to beat useful and correct behavior out of one language and system environment, or better yet many.

If you asked me a week ago, I might have said I was one of those people. But a curious thing has occurred. LLMs are so good now that I can validate and generate a tremendous amount of code while doing hardly any hand-coding at all.

And it's dawning on me that I don't miss it.

It's an interesting way to find out that I was always a system designer first, with code only as a means rather than an end. I...actually did not know this about myself, before now.

Insert cliched quote here about every journey of discovery ending in a discovery of the self. That actually happened this time.

I am somewhat bemused.

@sean_a_mcclure curious what the basis of this claim is: "The expected probability that the true maximum lies inside the observed subset goes to zero as N grows."

Idk who needs to hear this, but:

There are people in your life who want to support you, and they can't show up if you don't tell them what's going on.

If you are going through something, give your friends/family the opportunity to be there for you. Don't struggle alone.

often times my friends and i would hang out with our chemistry teacher after school and talk about everything unrelated to chemistry

[dancewithtruth @dancewithtruth]

we had an amazing, passionate, kind physics teacher in high school. at the end of the year my friends and I named a star after him. we showed him the star registry and said look! that star is named Mr. Day
