Every time some fkwit tells me that AI will write better code than I do.

It's not writing the code, that's maybe 10% of the job

The other 90% is understanding what people actually want and then making sure it's properly tested

Back in the early days they used to call just rewriting bad processes "paving the cow paths"

Nothing has changed

The current crop of AI blx will give you super fast cow paths

Good luck with that

I just saw a post from a "sovereign individual" type

Oh, dear me

The state has a monopoly on violence, sweetie, it doesn't need your permission. No amount of stamping your foot can change that. Educate yourself a little, eh?

24 years ago today, NATO began its illegal war against Yugoslavia.

I've just invented an app that auto-generates prescriptions from a patient's description of their symptoms. Soon we won't need doctors!

Instead, we'll just need patients with medical training.

So I attempted to work with ChatGPT on an original coding problem, starting with a set of business requirements. After nearly 3 hours, I'm giving up. I've been unable to get a complete source listing from it, particularly as ot rewrites the code on every attempt.
