LOL @ "I've never written production CSS" followed shortly by "don't use CSS selectors"

You wrote a sloppy "question" promoting your own work and an admin cleaned it up.

That's not "stunning".

[flagged]

    These cop-outs in programming

Too bad you had to give in and use a cop-out like Python, just imagine how much more productive you'd be if you were writing raw assembly /s

And by "the future", the slop machine operator means "newspaper owners replacing them with cheaper slop machines"

Do I look like I know what an STL is? I just want a model of a got dang hot dog

Holy it's not X it's Y Batman! From early in the piece:

It’s not bold. It’s backwards. It’s like asking someone to buy a car they’re only allowed to sit in while it’s parked.

The result is predictable: AI becomes something people talk about more than they use. The excitement is real, but the integration is superficial. The potential is enormous, but the pathways to realizing it are blocked. The technology is ready, but the architecture is not.

This is not a rant; it’s a diagnosis.

Well that certainly explains all the horse shit

You could do exactly the "triage immediately, fix, deploy" process that the author describes before LLMs. Most places didn't, but that doesn't make it "the result of integrating AI".

Must be exhausting

You can't arrange the icons by penis!

Oh wow, so did I:

    10 PRINT "OH NO I AM CONSCIOUS AND IN HELL"
    20 GOTO 10

Alternate title: "Slop Tastes Great, If You Ignore How It Tastes"

That's the neat part - you don't!

Sounds like there's a fork where some maintenance is still going on:

Good thing it isn't a bubble /s

Hallucinated slop about hallucinating slop. chef's kiss

They don't think it be like it is, but it do

    it is now clear that software engineering is probably beyond its own AGI

Clear to who? Try engaging your brain instead of parroting marketing materials

"It's not optional to use my product"

Keep telling yourself that, buddy

Fox declares itself the guardian of chickens' lives

Sounds like a great argument to turn these things off

"Why did the probabilistic text generator fail to exactly follow the constraints?"

Truly a mystery. Better buy more SaaS to smear on top

Offtopic: the "scan line" thing that the left-hand pane labeled "Documentation" is doing takes a continuous ~12% of a CPU on a Mac Studio. Incredible waste for a pointless visual effect.

    Since privacy will be an issue, "Shazam-like" filters will inhibit uncleared capture of voice.

So now the operating system will decide which recordings are "cleared" and which aren't? Fuck outta here with that nonsense

This isn't science - it's slop

    Also, since almost no one writes tests by hand anymore and
    instead generates them with LLMs

For suitably-small values of "everyone", I suppose

Mmmmm tasty slop

    use AI for code review, having another AI (or the same AI in a
    new session) audit code. It can examine every line carefully,
    never tires, never misses.

"never"? Absolutely roflcoptering over here.

If you've never had an LLM code reviewer hallucinate, you're either not reading the output or you're just lying.

I am shocked, SHOCKED I TELL YOU, to find out that executives might be lying!
