"The true purpose of AI is to allow wealth to access skill without allowing skill to access wealth." worth pondering...

Testing suite > code. We used to believe talk is cheap "show me the code". Now code is cheap show me the "talk". And talk is expensive when expressed as context and tokens. The "talk" is now your prompt, the harness, the testing suite, and every other English word describing your product and ensuring its behavior and correctness. Make sure not to talk trash..

always surprised by how lots of people confuse static/dynamic typing with strong/weak typing...
Looks like many people in the replies don't understand what I'm talking about. Here are few Rules of Thumbs (not comprehensive definition): - Static - types checked at compile time - Dynamic - types checked at runtime - Strong - 34 + "35" => error - Weak - 34 + "35" === 69

Hard times create hard programmers, Hard programmers create AI (or JS over a deadline), AI creates soft times, Soft times create soft programmers, Soft programmers create hard times. The bottom line, it's never a lost cause to be a hard programmer. It's just time swings.

@ThePrimeagen you're welcome. Now everyone touches grass because AI can't.

Not even in 06 years...
ai bros are just the worst they are actively discouraging an entire new fleet of noobs getting into software engineering with literally no proof that ai will take over software in "6 months."

If you think developers are expensive, try AI devs.
I apologize but won't be amplifying startups whose mission is to fully replace software engineers with "AI devs." It's clear why VCs & investors love this idea; and why founders as well. Imagine how much money they could make if they succeed! I hate the idea of that future.

It took me ages to upgrade years-old Python projects. Took me a couple minutes to upgrade years-old Go projects.

Any centralized platform is eventually biased. Including -very much- this one.
