But overall cool read to make you think, where you can see a dev brain as an ADC, design paradigms or microservices as band pass filters, apis as low pass, frameworks as downsampling, legacy code as DC signal that you don't touch, etc.

But my point is: I absolutely could have learnt all that the school curriculum mandates with pre Microsoft Encarta tech and I don't think current curriculum gets outdated so fast that a book can't hold the needed information for a school year... It's great that students have internet and AI and do whatever they want after school, but why does the school needs to provide/use so much of it that this news is even an issue?
I like that they acknowledge that. For working with ai as a tool open models are already great. For millennium problems and doomermaxxing they are not there yet.
Whenever I see this acquires or hiring of successful products founders or teams by big labs I ask myself if, apart for the usual obvious reasons that any non ai model company would want them, they are also reusing this human talent to build the dataset of "how the sausage is made".
If it was any other company we wouldn't even care, but if your marketing is 'big cloud is bad look at us we are so moral and so caring and respectful with you and your data' and they shit the bed like this in front of the users that are paying because they bought on this vision...
I kinda believe this. The web for collaboration, work, dumping out information and doomscrolling is a great tool, but I think is bad for any kind of socializing or 'communitizing' at a human level, where you are forced to treat humans as such instead of looking at some transduced digital representation of a real person in the form or chars or pixels prone to dehumanization.

This is pure dev astrology, but in the subsidized Sonnet 3.5 times in copilot I'm guilty of prompting 'You're Uncle Bob make this legacy java services read like a book top down with the cleanest code' just for fun and I might have learnt something and had some fun so I'm not judging.
But if you have control over your setup, I would use a capable terminal and ditch in-band multiplexers that sit in the middle of the process and your terminal eating up escape sequences and native features while adding latency. Then use a separate tool for session persistence (I like zmx but there are more for this).
> One of the key problems in analysis and specification of systems is that the eventual users do not have a good idea of what they want the system to do.
> Automatic Programming The term "automatic programming" has been used for many years to refer to the process by which an executable program may be produced from nonproce- dural specifications of the task to be performed. Some limited forms of automatic programming are already available and more will become available in the medium term. Over the longer term, it will be possible for pro- grammers to create running programs by providing a specification of program functions and outputs, without having to proceed with a detailed program design or with the production of code.

Seems to be scraped data? and then you review it manually like it recommends in: https://github.com/mixelpixx/Konnect/blob/9488e5f09717cb508c...
> A 2017 survey of Japanese students aged 16–22 found that 14–17 per cent of them admitted to having romantic feelings towards a character in a video game or anime.
TIL about the name of this phenomenon. I see this always in the context of "terminal online anime fan" but it made me think and look into other occurrences of similar parasocial behavior like the early Sherlock Holmes fandom.
With this current social and tech trends I think we are going to see more Pygmalionic SexBots startups in next cohorts.
