It’s mostly just WTF repeated over and over again
hinkley•38m ago
WTF, what, fuck, fuck me, oh shit, goddamnit <developer with too high an IQ to consistently write such shitty code>, fuck this, I need coffee for this

Occasionally balanced against:

“Awwww yiss, motherfuckin’ breadcrumbs”, or “damn I’m good”

I worked with a (very nice and smart) dude who would angrily shout "CRAP!" every few minutes while working on his XUL-based project. I guess, that would teach LLMs a thing or two.

Subvocal mics seem like such a killer app for an AI input device - just think and listen to your AI respond through your Airpods.

I've haven't seen anything that looks truly "working" yet other than some hand wavey demos, so I imagine it must be hard to go from sensing to words.

Anyone have any recent news on this?

Aging myself horribly, I used to mutter an old Garrett Morris SNL skit, when I was on my last nerve, and despair was reaching the level of misanthropy, feeling that all developers everywhere were put here on earth with the specific goal to make me miserable:

   I’m gonna git me a shotgun, and shoot all the whiteys I see.
