ditto. I have talked about it before with someone who shared the opinion that falling birth rates is the end of the world, but to single that out is creepy indeed. I do understand that it can be seen as a symptom of decay, but when I them people on why exactly birth rates are so important, it does seem like they implied a sort of existential thesis where procreation is supposedly the end goal.

Anecdotal: definitely a long way to go for systems programming, non-trivial firmware, and critical systems in general. And I say this as a huge fan of LLMs in general.

I work as a FW Eng and while they've been of immense value in scripting especially (fuck you powershell), I can only use them as a better autocomplete on our C codebase. Sometimes I'd chat with the codebase, but that's a huge hit or miss.

I read your guide to C programming as a teen, and as a firmware dev today I'm forever indebted to you.

Why are there so many paying Kagi customers who feel the to write multiple paragraphs of testimonies? This is so unusual of HN.

Reeks of astroturfing.
