jokes on them, humans have been shoveling out useless bloatware long before LLMs were even a thing

i got claude to bash out a file format parser for me and it works like a charm.
i have no serious investment in learning the format but i needed it done and it delivered.

our work laptops come with VPN service that we can use to access on-prem resources and it's so bad at interfering with a lot of other stuff that we have a dedicated kill-script to turn it off and prevent it from auto-starting again

i became a software engineer because i like building things and using my brain.
Agentic LLMs that do all that just takes the fun out of the job I want to do and just outsources critical thinking skills.

like you say, great for learning concepts quickly and brainstorming ideas though

jealous!
i have a library that i want to write doc comments for to give more context on the types we've defined but we're not allowed to touch stuff like Claude w/o proper training and just-cause stuff etc etc...

they've been saying that line for years and i've yet to see any game-changer apps come out
in fact, the quality of existing apps has went down since the LLMs really took off

i use it for better documentation when the docs on some library suck ass

i don't like agents though, takes the fun right out of implementing a feature
unless i need it quick and it's faster to use them than writing it myself

when in doubt, Arc<Mutex<T>>

or, according to AI, Arc<Mutex<T, U, V>>

we're not allowed to use it on our work stuff yet
i'm 100% convinced it would just self-immolate if it saw our legacy repos though
