New pet peeve is when I ask someone a nuanced question and they respond "Here's what GPT said"

I already asked GPT, if it had a good answer I wouldn't have asked you!

Gonna need to develop social protocols around this

Would y'all hang out if I did a coding game instead of an Android stream tonight? 👀

That one was a lot of fun, the crest was unique and a pain to sew on lmao

Some of what I've made, you better be nice. 😠

100/10 recommend getting offline and getting into a manual task. Crafting, gardening, woodworking, anything that requires physical interaction. I picked up crochet and when I catch myself doom scrolling I go work on a project and it's a game changer.

We ran a randomized controlled trial to see how much AI coding tools speed up experienced open-source developers.

The results surprised us: Developers thought they were 20% faster with AI tools, but they were actually 19% slower when they had access to AI than when they didn't.

Do you want me to do my lesson or not, Duo??

I'll be back to stream tomorrow night! And gone next week, but briefly back to take a look at Navigation 3 live 👀

What problem was this solving? It sounds like it just created more 😭

Been thinking about how much I hate AI tooling lately, and a random connection I made was that the boomers were right to criticize self checkout lanes. That was the start of "how can replace human interaction under the guise of making things easier" and we've slowly just been ramping that up.

Interfaces are your best friend. Put wrappers around third party code, especially for data requests. It will be an immense help for testing and for changing data sources over time.

Yep! It was harder because it required more precise timing since it disappears and it's uncommon haha

We've done it. We've completed Balatro.
