"typed error handling, structured concurrency, resource safety, and observability, all from one composable core"

I'm interested to know why tsc (pre-go) would give me near-instant LSP diagnostics on a large typescript project, and rust-analyzer takes ages to produce diagnostics in a small rust project.

It all went wrong when writing was introduced, the lazy kids became addicted to letting the technology take place of their natural human memory.

The AI is getting bad morals from listening to that dreadful rock and roll

Maybe .unwrap()

This got me thinking about what "I made this" means, when we're building on top of zillions of abstractions "made" by others.

I don't make the binaries. The compiler does. I just feed in specification called source code.

I'd be interested to overlay, I don't know, customer satisfaction or anything that can show the follow-on effect of all this output. Linear won't have that information.

My guess is some will jump up (where the team has managed to make themselves move effective and responsive) and many will plummet (doesn't need explaining).

Then there might be something to look at.

X, not Y

Good instinct. Fair challenge. This corrects my framing. It makes your point sharp. This is a significant finding. Positively confirmed. That settles it, and it flips the picture. Honest verdict - this is not small. Let me wire it in.

"Well, actually, vim doesn't make you faster"

One I got "That settles it, and it flips the picture"

well not very settled then is it

I think some people who grew up with web apps didn't know local native apps preceded them.

Let me verify one thing.

Let me read this rather than answer from memory.

Let me check instead of handwaving the details.

Let me confirm rather than blindly trusting.

Let me ground it in evidence rather than guess.

Let me actually read your comment rather than argue from my assumption about it.

Ah, t is a formal variable, a symbol, like the letter t.

Not like a drink with jam and bread.

The things people do to not use web technologies.

Incredible. My two-year-old forgets to include Lambek when lecturing on Curry-Howard-Lambek correspondence. Kids.

I presume haskell applications similar to claude code are well represented in the training data.

The LLMs are better at enforcing their boundaries than developers. Run out of tokens? That's it. No more code. It doesn't care how much the company needs this for the customer call tomorrow.

How did hate come in - did you assume it?

I imagine everyone has a point at which they feel a movement has pushed its rhetoric just that bit too far. When one takes a lofty and high-minded position, one can find oneself exposed to ridicule.

In case it helps the authentic human connection: I too wrote this with my human hands and did not use AI.

If it is that bad then I sincerely apologise.

I shall call it artist slop.

It's the natural vinyl warmth

Artists: No cold-hearted machine can ever replicate the ingenuity, the innate creativity and passionate soul of the artiste.

Later: The villain cat has the catchphrases 'Purrrfect' and 'You must be kitten me'. The snake character makes lotsss of sss noissesss.

I googled that word and Anthropic.com was the first hit. Head -> desk

window.i = 0; // initialize all my for loops in one go!

red blob games is a treasure

My screen reader says "eleven why" for a11y. I hope that's fine with everyone

It has taken LLMs to encourage companies to prioritise a clean codebase, tickets with unambiguous context and examples of what is right and wrong when onboarding new team members.

If only we cared so much for junior developers.
