Definitely more helpful. But I would preface that with proper context building.

It isn’t enough (generally) to just tell it to do the thing. It is far better to to tell it to do a thing, and how, and provide rules, and provide examples, and provide the company’s best practices.

And I realize it takes a bit to get there, but I’m at a point that with enough context provisions, I can generate 10+ files of code for a net new feature that is 99%+ how I would do it in sub 5 minutes.

Do I tell Product that I still need another week? Absolutely.

Context is king.

It goes through two levels of review, we do not accept slop.

Crap you just reminded me I need to stock up on shotgun ammo

I’m not as intelligent as you, but thank you for this because it increases my appreciation so much more

but muh economyz!

…wow, TIL.

Cry more. Half the problem is Copilot is anecdotally worse than just running a model locally myself. It easily ranks at or near the bottom for everything IME.

The other half is Microsoft shoving it everywhere including fucking Notepad.

I feel like you must be prompting it poorly or using ChatGPT / Copilot?

I’d say in my day to day, AI tooling successfully tackles 90% of my software engineering jobs and with proper context and promoting the output is pretty stellar.

lol

This is a perfect analogy and I will be sharing it to friends and selective family…

Someone who knows more than me…does this guy just get disappeared then? Or is the only ramification really just a lost job?

Well, this is it. Fuck.

I never said don’t vote.

I said don’t depend on simply voting to fix things.

Don’t sit around for another year expecting the midterms will fix things.

Apathy? Wake the fuck up to what is going on. Voting alone won’t fix things.

As a US citizen, we aren’t. The US is fucked and the problem is all the milquetoast peaceful protestors and people waiting for midterms to solve everything haven’t accepted that.

Every agency is now infiltrated and poisoned. Hundreds of agencies are gone or dying. The nazis are everywhere in the house and the Oligarchs are sucking their dicks.

The only two options are kill them all or let everything collapse on itself and rebuild.

The latter is most likely.

Fuck. Fuck fuck fuck.

he’s terrified of losing the house and senate in 11 months

This makes me think you’re a bot shilling hope that isn’t real

I do think Vance might cause a splintering of followers though which could help

What evidence do you have that he does that’s this? Most military people I know support Trump. I have to assume the leadership in the military has been gutted like the IRS, FBI, etc.

I have zero reason to believe the military isn’t in lock step.

I don’t think there’s an easy California could just withhold money though?

Also Californians don’t have as many guns.

Now Oregon on the other hand…
