I wonder just what goes into someone's mind, when they do not care about who in the future is gonna have to maintain what they've crafted. Nor care about the experience of the user.
Nor even feel accountable when they haven't done their due diligence to do things right.
You could say that. The schema in question was not mine nor in any way within my control. I could start up a business and write an entire app to replace the one in question. Maybe I could even get you to donate some money to fund that endeavor. Or I could spend an hour one time to code an external work around so I don't have to spend two hours a cycle fighting with that stupid app.
This is how ridiculous workflows evolve, but it really isn't AI's fault.
Before getting into Zed, I had fallen in love with Helix. that one doesn't even have plugins xD
Getting used to splitting my Wezterm and launching lazygit on a second pane kind of made me forget about my dependence on JetBrains git integration prior to helix :P
Believe me I have tried. And already have made my config. Took me weeks, and is still no closer to getting to be up to par with what I get with helix out of the box.
It also is just super slow on windows unfortunately.
Hey there, post author here. I do actually generate days worth of code in minutes and weeks worth of code in hours (not minutes) — but didn't really cover them because this post was more conceptual than specifically covering a tactic or technique as other posts do.
But in case you're interested a talk that I gave in Spain this year just went live yesterday, and discusses not only real world use cases but also discusses a lot of the fundamentals of how these AI systems work to make that possible.
Hey there, article author here! I spent a lot of time writing up a comment that talks through my process so I'll just lazy link it here if that's ok. [^1]
But the truth is I do build real production features all the time! That just wasn't the focus of this article. :)
I will empathize with you then and with your inability to empathize with the fact that people are different. Some people don't want to admit to themselves that this world is a wolf eat sheep world, trust that if you're a law abiding citizen, you shouldn't expect to be unfairly treated. Some people have more priorities and no time to dwell on harshness. They also would love it if everything just worked and you didn't need to spend 2 months of your life to configure things and always have to DIY everything.
They're not like me and I accept that. I will never use Apple & Google Cloud for my personal things. But I will empathize for those who get unfair treatement from these companies.
The whole meaning of a society is that we look out for each other, these big corpos have lost the plot, but I will not.
It is supposed to be : I buy a service from you, I did nothing wrong, please treat me fairly and do actually deliver on what I paid for.
That we don't trust them isn't how it's supposed to be, I wish I didn't have to do all of these things I do to keep away from big corpos, but this isn't how it is supposed to be. We're supposed to have the ability to trust each other in a society.
I qualified with "technically-inclined". You can't avoid seeing stories like this (about Apple and Google) on a monthly basis if you read tech websites. It is a known risk, which needs to be managed. Failing to manage it to this extent, while also writing tech books, is just baffling.
Apple is clearly in the wrong, and I'm certain that there are thousands of similar cases that are less public. The author is one of the best-positioned people to know and understand that. I'm sure they'll also get their account back, unlike many others.
(I can empathize with the difficult decision they'll face after that: do they continue to promote Apple, or try to reinvent their career somehow?)
"Looking out for each other", in this case, implies telling the people you care about to have backups, and helping them set up. I do that, a lot. I'd try to also help with this plea, if I had any pull with Apple.
I don't understand the sections of your comment with the word "supposed" in them. Supposed by who, and on what basis? What paid-for service are Apple not delivering? I assume they don't charge the author anymore.
No not, worse code. Wrong code. Code filled with bugs. Code filled with lawsuits too.
Code that make you look productive this month while you prepare to leave the company, and turn out to be absolute pooopoo the day after you leave.
