@nedpyle.com DID SIR KEL, DARBY AND INDY FEEL IT?

Can you confirm or deny this was caused by Kel falling off of the sofa while snoring?

The melania documentary? whens that come out? 2028? after whatever the fuck this is?

I kind of have expected this. I commend his trolling of the far right, it was just and due. That said he needs to get his story straight. He is either for all classes, or he is not. Billionaires need to be taxed, at normal rates by their bracket at a minimum.

I guess tldr, I dont work in banking or govt, but no one wants an edgecase to result in a million dollar account going to 0, or a near empty account going to a billion. “the ai fucked up” wont appease the discovery and repercussions.

so when I specifically mention red tape I mean long defined and prescribed QA processes there for good reason in batch processing and critical processes such as UAT testing and long term tests that by volume verify conditions and results stay the same.

man, if it wasnt so fucking miserable atm it would be a 😁😁😁

Not to mention the hours testing, planning, integrating and having someone verify the result is right to begin with.

The red tape alone associate with a change is going to always be the bottleneck. We have developers who are faster than the QA process,
maybe it will up the amount of that? idk.

So to just give like the slightest bit of insight.

COBOL as we know it consists of Batch (over time processing), CICS ( interacting with systems in COBOL) and Stored (DB2 driven COBOL interaction).

These are not the hurdle, the hurdle is precision in transition on critical systems w/ abs no error.

they claimed to have solved COBOL migrations today and got called on their bluff by COBOL developers

“Insert are we cooked chat?”

I actually find value in having it make good stub data as well, for when I have UI I need to get infront of someone now so that I can work on the backend while they decide on frontend stuff.

Oh for sure, the things I’m asking it to do are trivial with any thought but any thought I can save waiting 5-10 seconds while doing stuff they actually pay me to do is nice. I feel like there will be a lot of that give and take to find a balance.

It relies on having the knowledge to guide it I suppose. I’ve had successes and maybe I should have just done that myself a few times. I love using it for queries as if it can get me half way there I can usually fix the rest. (I don’t have a strong sql background)

For example there are companies who literally go around modernizing mainframes, I’m interested in hearing from them. You can drive a ferrari but if it has to go through the same traffic obstacles/DUI checkpoint as the ford neon infront of it. 🫣😬

The thought is refreshing, and sounds nice, but it is a very easy laugh.

This is institutional, industry knowledge of systems built ground up by people who barely understood modern computer science because it was still being written.

AI, aka LLM’s are no where ever remotely close to being able to interface, have permissions, and recreate COBOL systems running as batch, cics, and their stored procedure interfaces in countless languages lol.

AI does good at doing very trivial stuff that is based on well defined well documented code. It can easily whip up some html, and javascript, maybe give you endpoint logic to post to using ajax in the language of your choice.

Make me an sql query based on some criteria that already know? sure.

COBOL developer here… good luck. 🤣

Imo this is no mistake, but a beautiful symphony of timing.

I’m no cat lawyer but you should probably take this very seriously ned.

I have never thought about using a fresh beet like I would an onion, and now I have questions.

not a fan of it, but did eat it growing up on occasion. Idk if it was food insecurity or whether my mom thought it was a legit meal. 🤷‍♂️ Times weren’t always all that financially secure when I was young. Lots of fried eggs and rice too, but thats actually a banger.

I’m at the point, minus anyone having committed a crime, if someone has finally woken the fuck up I’m still angry but if they can agree this isnt it that’s atleast something.

I sure wish we could press a skip button to the midterms. I’ve never seen people so fired up.

this is how it should be handled.

YOURE RIGHT LOL

Did I hear that also called their families a disgrace? Its hard to remember that was a pretty wild ride with the steel worker make out session fantasy and all…

It was a stark reminder why I watch high.. lowlight reels of these things and not live.
