@nasser IMO this speaks more to LLMs not actually being able to replace humans long term. For some stuff maybe, but they fundamentally can't do the things experienced programmers do. 🤷 Even IBM is starting to hire juniors again cause they realized the golden goose is BS

@nasser It's definitely the lower skilled developers that get the most excited by it. But then they get trapped in that they don't actually develop the skills they need.
@thejikz @futurebird Say more! I would have thought stick bugs would be easier to wrangle given their size
Reflect Orbital wants to destroy the night sky to deliver "sunlight as a service". SpaceX wants to destroy Low Earth Orbit to launch one million "AI datacentres"
The only way to formally protest these two ideas is to file a comment with the US FCC, which is horribly complicated, but the American Astronomical Society has detailed instructions posted here: https://aas.org/posts/advocacy/2026/02/how-submit-comments-satellite-applications-fcc
Comments due March 6 for SpaceX and March 9 for Reflect Orbital. Write! Write! Write!
One of the interns decided to interview devs across my org about how/whether they use AI for development and what they think about it. They shared without names but with titles.
I noticed that the more senior a dev is, the more they’re likely to have low opinion of AI and/or only use it for very narrow purposes. More junior devs tend to say things like “it makes me a better dev”
@BigTittyBimbo Hearty sharting 💪💪
If I remove the lid to their tank they could try to run up the side and over the edge, but then I would see them. They don't do this. They either wait on the lid, flattened into a crack motionless until it's removed (then they make a break for it)
Or they get on the brush and stay motionless (not running up it) until I put it down.
And a new gambit? playing dead so I sweep them out with the graveyard. (!)
They keep getting smarter.
@Forbearance I was imagining it would be speedrunners trying to do the course themselves
Occult Enby that's making local-first software with peer to peer protocols, mesh networks, and the web.
Yap with me and send me cool links relating to my interests. 👍
