A marvelous article that explains everything. It should be mandatory reading for everyone in the industry.

Honestly the more I see this the less I like Golang. Generics was the worst thing ever added to the language. We're making it easier for library builders and harder for ordinary code to be written.

True, but thing is that "artificial intelligence" is meant in the opposite sense. It's meant as something that is / will be equivalent to human intelligence, not as something useful but vastly inferior.

I propose that those of us who don't believe that AI is actually intelligence look for a term to refer to its "thinking" that isn't "intelligence", because this helps our weak minds keep things straight.

C is still, by far, the simplest language that we have.

Although many newer languages are safer (with the exclusion of Rust, primarily by being slower) the same kinds of issues that are there in C are there in these languages, their effects are just harder to see.

People complain about C as though they know how to fix it.

"Verbose" is the wrong adjective. Yours is a terse projection into a lower space, valid in itself, but lacking the power and precision of its archetype.

This is such a beautiful distillation of everything I believe about the dangers of over-reliance on AI. I implore thee, good sir, to write a longer essay on this.

Obviously because he was one of the architects of the censorship regime of the late 2010s and early 2020s that nearly changed the internet into a three-letter-agency controlled space. If that isn't a risk for a censorship-resistant app, I don't know what is.
