On the other hand, you can one-up any Rust developer by saying "Memory safe? My language doesn't even know what memory is."

There was once a post I saw on Hacker News that said learning Lisp and Haskell was a bad career move. Not because you couldn't use other tools, you could use them with relative ease. But the author said learning them left them bitter when using anything else, because they were forever bitter that they weren't writing Lisp or Haskell.

It's a bell curve, isn't it?

@cwebber Kudos To Mark for trying to replace himself, this should be easier to do than for any other human on this planet.

Hang in there, folks.

Your very existence pisses off some shitbag bigot.

I love that for you. 🌈

Bloomberg is covering Mythos. The journalists are VERY skeptical, and the AIBros are all like "THIS SHOULD BE A GLOBAL LAW EVERYONE SHOULD TEST WITH THIS AAAH WE ARE ALL GONNA DIE."

OH man they have Kara Sprague on and she is speaking truth. THANK goodness.

And now it's kreiger "OH NOT THIS IS REALLY GOOD YOU SHOULD USE IT YOU DON'T WANNA GET HACKED DO YOU?"

Kara: "Um, that's not how any of this works."

God I'm loving this. And she's just so polite.

I would not be so polite. That's probably why I am not on Bloomberg. Or a CEO. Or, well, yeah.

A researcher invented a fake eye condition called bixonimania, uploaded two obviously fraudulent papers about it to an academic server, and watched major AI systems present it as real medicine within weeks.

The fake papers thanked Starfleet Academy, cited funding from the Professor Sideshow Bob Foundation and the University of Fellowship of the Ring, and stated mid-paper that the entire thing was made up. Google's Gemini told users it was caused by blue light. Perplexity cited its prevalence at one in 90,000 people.

ChatGPT advised users whether their symptoms matched. The fake research was then cited in a peer-reviewed journal that only retracted it after Nature contacted the publisher.

Using an AI chatbot to help me write would be like using the kitchen garbage disposal to help me eat dinner. The garbage disposal absolutely can do something like chewing and swallowing the food, faster and more efficiently than my jaws, tongue, teeth, and throat can do it. But if I have the garbage disposal do the chewing and swallowing for me, then I get none of the flavor or nutrition or satisfaction of eating food. I'm just making a big noisy show of wasting something I need.

"Opinionated" software sounds great until you find out the author has the stupidest opinions you've ever heard in your life.

Molotov cocktails are just the technological reality now. You can adapt your workflows to them or get left behind.

At my company every employee has to use at least one per day. It’s a vibrant and competitive field full of potential.
