Broke: Learning to code
Woke: Becoming a mystical technopriest that elicits code by gaslighting an algorithm.
I wish we had more taglines like this and fewer that were like "I visited Hexbear once and they insulted my shoes"
hate to say it but this should also be a tagline
There was a tagline revision post on the meta comm, unfortunately it was right before the war started so everyone got distracted.
I was at a networking event once and a person did have an interesting POV that ever since the first abstraction from binary we've always been trying to communicate with the minerals.
did they mean "communicate to other humans using the minerals"? because that I can get behind
but if they meant, "commune with the EM fields and the phonons vibrating around in the crystals by talking to an llm"
They unfortunately meant the latter. The idea being it's a new iteration of the same abstraction going from low level languages to higher ones. Like from Assembly to C to C++ to C#
This is just polymorphism-via-function-pointers in old-school C
This but unironically
