Damn, I miss ruby and particularly Rails sooo much. I'm stuck rebuilding wheels in node currently :)

There is a huge backlash coming when the general public learns AI is plagued with errors and hallucinations. Companies are out there straight up selling snake oil to them right now.

That is not the event or circle I’m referring to. This one is far more nefarious. Just check out LinkedIn, unless he’s removed it.

Sorry, I’m not sure why it was off topic or clickbait. Can you explain? Should I have added WHY I think it’s bad as well? I honestly thought it was self evident but again, I’m neurodivergent.

I’m mostly concerned for the integrity of YC if this is what he’s pushing. If he’s so sensitive to politics then I’m not sure why he’s putting political content out there and using his authority to push it. Seems like he wants an echo chamber which is concerning for someone in his position.

ChatGPT gives me garbage code unless I ask it politely not to. No joke. Usually the first attempt is pure garbage and I have to call it out as such and then it’s like, “you’re right! Here’s the updated code”. No idea why it can basically never get it right the first time. I also find that it can be quite redundant and offer two distinct solutions morphed into one mutant answer which will turn the undiscerning 1x developer into a -10x developer. But hey, it still saves me time. Sometimes..

This is a description of a poorly run process and lack of product management. Clients will ask for dumb stuff regardless if it’s a building or piece of software. It’s our job to educate and guide. If a client is un-guidable, then fire them!

TBH I’ve smoked weed everyday all day long for over 20 years. Maybe that’s how I’ve gotten by but I’m wondering if there is a better and healthier alternative.
