I love the two laptops, nice touch. You really need two to code this hard!

Guaranteed cope. Cope that's desperately trying to sell you AI, because it's bleeding money.

Okay.

Get him on a call with a customer to explain why their payroll is broken.

That should be fun.

[–] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 12 points 2 months ago

Easy. Just transcribe the call straight into cursor

Should just work, right? Right?

Do you think society will collapse before these companies have to start tearing out all this AI written shit from their codebases? It would be nice to have some employment opportunities to look forward to.

AI code is going to be like computer's DNA introns where nobody knows what the fuck any of it even does except some of it will actually be critically important code that works for reasons literally nobody can understand without being a goddamn AI archaeologist

The rest of my career is going to be joining startups a couple years in and gradually refactoring their AI fueled spaghetti, isn’t it?

How come these 10x devs always seem to actually get requirements that don't change and never need to attend meetings

I'd love that but I live in a x today y tomorrow of business.

I hope he didn't use Claude because oh boy it maybe costed more than a real developer.

Just write the AI to accept non deterministic outcomes, slap it on its ass, and push it into production.

Notice the most cracked developer "Arno" is a white guy with very expensive equipment who was raised in that environment for more than a decade?

CS not beating the white supremacy allegations any time soon in the West.
