Sounds like someone got stressed and started smoking, and then turned it into a joke about believing AI will cure my cancer anyway. Then it snowballed in idiotic fashion into this comment by a MBA penny counter.

You’re not an outlier, but it’s where the current political climate sits. State governments have to do something because the federal government, headed by a facist, has withheld funds from states it deems enemies.

The difference between trying to get rid of a leech on the government and just sitting there and taking it is pretty clear to me. If they leave… so be it, billionaires don’t create jobs, the companies full of employees do. At the point they become billionaires, they are likely trying their hardest to reduce jobs as well.

But also California is a very nice place to live and people want to live here. It’s not like you can just say “I don’t reside in California” and not pay the tax either. The FTB has the 5th largest economy in the world behind it, it will determine if you have residency in CA or not regardless if you say you don’t. And it’s in their best interest to put the time and effort into proving it for the billionaires that want to try.

It’s a lack of feeling, you don’t really feel sad, happy, angry, etc. I think one of the biggest things a lot of people think of when they think of depression is it’s just being sad but it’s not really.

Really depression is the lack of everything that makes it interesting to live, to feel. You lack energy to do anything, and getting out of the hole feels monumental. Any small progress can then have you fall easily into the bottom of the hole after making any progress.

It’s also happens that it causes circular reasoning and continued re-emergence of questions that can’t be answered or you’ve already answered. Ruminating on thoughts leads to feeling tired mentally and physically and exacerbates the problem of depression, sending you further into the void, feeling even more emotionless.

Depressions greatest trick is to tell you that you can’t change anything, that you want to feel this way forever and unfortunately can lead to the worst scenario.

When I get into these states, I tend to start by drinking water with a good amount of electrolytes. There’s a lot of times where I just don’t do anything and I don’t wanna leave the house but anytime I drink water and I take a walk consistently. It helps a lot.

Being indoors and constantly on a computer is not good however, much you do like computers or video games.

And I do it consistently.

One of the main things that I had when I was very depressed was the fact that I would get dehydrated and I didn’t realize it and it would make me very sad which stopped me from drinking water or doing other stuff.

No, I’m not going to pretend that water is the only thing but it’s a start.

They already said not warez though

I said AI is good at writing code, nothing about vibe coding.

But I’d probably consider any code writing with AI to be vibe coding anyway. But there’s levels to it, one has you building large codebases you can’t hope to maintain without the knowledge of how it’s working. And the other has you architecting and planning the code properly to scale and work correctly.

Again it’s more the way you use it, if you tell the agent to go out and create a large program by itself. That’s an issue. You’re just creating a ton of code without agency, leaving design decisions up to the AI is pretty terrible.

But if you know how to code, and you can guide it to make small metered changes based on your knowledge of coding and do it much faster than normal.

The main issue comes when junior developers aren’t getting the proper training on how to solve problems or coding issues. Or even how to properly architect things. Or for open source projects, not having the knowledge of the code base to be able to make changes or fixes to issues because of the spaghetti code they let the agent create.

Trust me when I say, every single developer at my very large company uses AI to code, it’s very good and very useful. But it’s just how you use it that determines its usefulness and longevity.

If you’re saying you disagree with me that AI is really good at making code, it’s obvious that you don’t code or that you’re using the tools incorrectly.

Yeah, the hate is unwarranted.

As always, there’s people who will basically take the it’s evil no matter what path. If they feel that heavily about AI, they probably shouldn’t be using anything that uses Linux. Which is basically just about everything on the web.

Hank was using it to create some games and do research for his videos. An AI is really good at creating code and for that purpose making a small game. AI can help you research things by finding and searching for things relevant to what you want, but then you need to rely on actually understanding what is being cited.

There are obvious downsides to AI and all the data centers and everything but going about and saying no matter why AI will never use is just a fool errand.

It’s worth push pushing back on data centers and what not And I am involved in several of those movements. But AI bad is just a stupid take, Especially when Hank is using it for all intents and purposes pretty responsibly compared to some people at larger companies.

I’d put a flap on the outside, just like some siding or something…

They were laying eggs in the window sill at my apartment. They wouldn’t stop and we didn’t realize.

There’s numerous other places, holes in screens of windows, of bathroom exhaust, dryer exhaust. Most annoying might be central heating if you have.
