the prompt-related pivots really do bring all the chodes to the yard

and they're definitely like "mine's better than yours"

artisanal legumist

if you can't make a good post that's a you problem. if people end up poking holes in your shit and you suddenly can't keep your incoherent nonsense together, still a you problem. but:

nonsensically off-the-rails

take your abuser bullshit and fuck right off, thanks

no the worse one

now listen, you might think gnu tools are offensively inconsistent, and to that I can only say

find(1)

hmm, I like that!

and then I guess "promptfarmowner" would be saltman etc?

I never said any of tha

not with your words you didn't

Nice conversation you had right there in your head

that you recognize none of this is telling. that someone else got it, more so.

I assume

you could just ask, you know. since you seem so comfortable fondling prompts, not sure why you wouldn't ask a person. is it because they might tell you to fuck off?

I’ve taken a closer look...

fuck off with the unrequested advertising. never mind that no-one asked you for how you felt for some fucking piece of shit. oh, you feel happy that the logo is a certain tint of

<colour>

That makes it a good tool

a tool you say? wow, sure glad you're going to replace your spins the wheel Punctured Car Tyre with spins the wheel again Needlenose Pliers!

think I’m some AI worshipper, fuck no. They’re amoral as fuck

so, you think there's moral problems, but only sometimes? it's supes okay to do your version of leveraged exploitation? cool, thanks for letting us know

those very few truly FOSS ones

oh yeah, right, the "truly FOSS ones"! tell me again how those are trained - who's funding that compute? are the licenses contextually included in the model definition?

wait, hold on! why are you squealing away like a deflating balloon?! those are actual questions! you're the one who brought up morals!

Otherwise you’ll end up in a social corner filled with bitterness

I've met people like you at parties. they're often popular, but they're never fun. and I always regret it.

There are technologies that are utter bullshit like NFTs. However (unfortunately?) that isn’t the case for AI

citation. fucking. needed.

(I don't mean to take aim at you with this despite how irked it'll sound)

I really fucking hate how many computer types go "ugh I can't" at regex. the full spectrum of it, sure, gets hairy. but so many people could be well served by decently learning grouping/backrefs/greedy match/char-classes (which is a lot of what most people seem to reach for[0])

that said, pomsky is an interesting thing that might in fact help a lot of people go from "I want $x" as a human expression of intent, to "I have $y" as a regex expression

[0] - yeah okay sometimes you also actually need a parser. that's a whole other conversation. I'm talking about "quickly hacking shit up in a text editor buffer in 30s" type cases here

It’s a tool.

(if you persist to stay with this dogshit idiotic "opinion":) please crawl into a hole and stay there

fucking what the fuck is with you absolute fucking morons and not understand the actual literal concept of tools

read some fucking history goddammit

(hint: the amorphous shifting blob, with a non-reliable output, not a tool; alternative, please, go off about how using a php hammer is definitely the way to get a screw in)

My opinion is it can be good when used narrowly.

ah, as narrowly as I intend to regard your opinion? got it

(not in the compute side, but in the lying-obstructionist hustle side)

way too much effort

ah I do believe I have the link for this

example mvp: hook up your linter/LSP/CI-errors-output to buttplug

I, too, segfaulted on this one

"a fool and their money are soon parted"

yeah, the "some projects" bit is applicable, as is the "machine generated" phrasing

@gsuberland pointed out elsewhere on fedi just how much of the VS-/MS- ecosystem does an absolute fucking ton of code generation

(which is entirely fine, ofc. tons of things do that and it exists for a reason. but there's a canyon in the sand between A and B)

wow 90%, do you have actual studies to back up that number you're about to claim you didn't just pull out of your ass?

I'm sorry you work at such a shit job

or, I guess, I'm sorry for your teammates if you're the reason it's a shit job

either way it seems to suck for you, maybe you should level your skills up a bit and look at doing things a bit better

you sound like a fucking awful teammate. it's not your job to nitpick and bikeshed everything they do, it's your job to help them grow

"you need to code review everything" motherfucker if you're saying this in context only of your juniors then you have a massive organisational problem
