My mom wanted a printer for her birthday and it's been a few months without any success when it comes to selecting the right model
But i read everything, i write most of my code by hand and I'm very careful to not shoot myself on the foot.
I say this because on the other side of the spectrum, some colleagues at work are VERY hyped about AI and i constantly suffer the consequences of them making changes without looking, the code is brittle and often introduces bugs
So I'm mostly anti hype, i can recognize it as a useful tool, but im tired of people using it without taking a few minutes to review what is outputting
I can use AI to help me explore libraries or to replace a search, generate small snippets here and there, or even scripts that i occasionally need. But i can't vibecode, i don't know how to let go, i babysit too much, i read the code and i feel uneasy if I don't understand what I'm building, or why I'm building it in a certain way, i need to understand how the pieces work to make a whole
For me this is just a lost of potential on the topic, and an interesting read made boring pretty fast.
After the election, every sane person knew that Maduro lost, however as the government didn't recognize the results and Maduro was declared president once again
A number of protests started in various cities, so the government instructed their followers to use the app to report any activity, during the following months it was scary to leave the house, the military and cops got free pass to search any citizen on sight, they were allowed to just take your phone and if something against the government was found they could take you to prison or use some kind of extortion.
Also, Maduro gave a free pass to the "Colectivos" basically criminals supported by the government with weapons to just terrorize the common people. IT WAS WILD, to be on the street, hear a group riding motorcycles and needing to take cover in a building if you didn't want to be shot
Much of this stuff was coordinated using the reports given by the app
I stumbled with some f up stuff that i still remember to this day. But somehow I'm grateful that it wasn't the current brainrot
But then my question is, what are you doing that you need to manually check for types ? I mean i get it at some point, usually at the time of user input usually you need to run checks to actually convert some input into a valid type. But once it is inside your program you don't need to check anymore because well... static typing and all that, you should know what you have in every step just at a glance
It took me hours to debug why it was faulty in my app, until i asked for help on a discord server and someone answered me saying that the same mistake happened to them a few months back...
It seems small, but it really does help.
Funny thing, he faked that too. For a guy with so much money he is weirdly insecure about some absurd stuff

Was too funny it made me chuckle loudly.
Anyway f Tesla
