I finally watched the "chicken jockey" clip to catch up on the social zeitgeist and the video that came up on YouTube ends with "A Minecraft Movie" logo and I read it as "Minecraft: A Movie" and I think that sums it up, its defining characteristic is that it is a movie.

Have you tried loving yourself? Solves this and other problems.

The trick with a junior dev is you spend 2-3 months mentoring them and then they are actually capable of understanding what you mean when you ask them to do something.

One of the Truths 5 year old Adam spoke that my parents reminded me I said was: "The East is America's Head and the West is America's Heart." (paraphrased as I don't know the exact wording I used over 35 years ago)

I’m telling you guys, there is no widespread adoption of this current version of AI. Honestly, even calling it “AI“ is fraudulent. There’s no intelligence going on. It’s not “thinking”. It mimics thought. It’s a potentially useful programming tool and a neat, very polite

The irony of this bundle about teaching kids to "vibe code" (= ask AI to generate code without understanding anything, making you completely dependent), to support a non-profit that gets women into computer science. Especially in the age of AI, you need to understand code more

btw in your 20's and 30’s you’ll start rediscovering the niche interests and hobbies you had as a kid. it’s very important you revisit them. your younger self was actually on to something.

The grift is how the product is "self improving". Everyone's larping AGI which is fed back into the next version of the model to give the larpers more of what they want.
