flanbybleue69on Shimano Bicycle Museum Review

I live in the Bay Area but cannot find that museum. USdefaultism?

flanbybleue69on If You Quit Social Media, Will You Read More Books?

Yes. And the last social media I struggle to quit is YouTube.

If you do photography for your own pleasure and not for the sake of likes, gratification or public opinion you can use whatever hardware or software it’s alright.

flanbybleue69on Ask HN: Are there software engineering areas that are safe from LLMs invasion?

I am good with the current power and speed. Let's straight jump to the smart era.

Also, my main issue is not really AI not being good enough. If a company is fine getting sh*t code then let's go full AI, but I love my job, I love solving issues, coding, working with new paradigm, trying solutions, failing, improving, etc. I don't want to be a prompt expert and being asked to review AI generated code all day long.

Of course, it is a very personal opinion, but I think it is still shared by a decent bunch of people.

Managers and CTO don't care about you being an expert. They just push you to use what they saw 100 times on LinkedIn, using Cursor to improve 60% of code delivery time.

Every month CTO meeting is about them pushing software engineer to use Cursor.

That might be a good candidate, right.

I am baffled about how each company are jumping into LLMs without considering anything about their own privacy when 10 years ago, just using GitHub with a private repository could have been an issue.

> To be fair the code they produce is dogshit, so it isn't a problem.

That's not a problem for managers and CTO that are just being brainwashed by marketing and LinkedIn posts that all their engineers should use Cursor.
