It's pure vitriol, has never made anything, has never practiced anything, revels in thought that the hours other people spent practicing a craft may be obsolete.
Sad person to be ignored.
im more surprised at the $145k salary for a junior dev.
Dhh is the creator of ruby on rails, here he's hiring a fully remote Jr position for his company 37Signals. The salary is in the top percentages for SF pay band for that LOE because he wants to attract the best.
Must be San Fran
Yea 145k/y is living in your car on the office campus standard of living in SF.
That means it's definitely a SF based job.
37Signals is famously a remote-only company, since long before COVID. This job isn’t based anywhere in particular. 145 does seem high for a junior eng, but should give him access to the top talent.
Nope, remote worldwide
Me when I have no idea what I’m talking about
Simply untrue, clearly not someone who lives in the bay area
No it’s not
This was standard 5 years ago💔
maybe in San Fran but certainly not florida, the best junior role around these parts was 90k 5 years ago.
You get the benefit of living in a swamp land with weird old religious freaks tho.
i wonder what else was happening 5 years ago
Yeah more like 45k...
Nu-uh, that's bait.
The most open, best-kept secret management sincerely wishes you'd know:
No engineer is hired for their ability or skill or proficiency in a tool or language or whatever.
They are hired to solve problems.
If you want to be a good engineer, learn how to achieve outcomes by solving problems. Everything else is irrelevant.
this becomes apparent to most jr engineers the moment they sit at their new desk, expecting to dive into a codebase or CAD model or material sheet or test standards and instead see that their boss forwarded them a 3 month old, 15 reply deep email chain to their company inbox three days before they started from some contractor or employee from another department about some random shit they never touched in school and was never listed on the job description with the subject line "FWD: start on this" and no body text
Did someone hurt you?
Software development for a corporation, if I had to guess.
Source: sobs
Lmao, that was me, only that the ticket was a months long correspondence from salesforce between managers of clients, third party software vendors, and us. I didn't even have half the access needed to successfully resolve the problem since I was just one week into the job.
god, if you're hearing me, bless me with the half access this guy had
I can’t wait to have a job like that tbh I revel in those challenges. I just hope they’ll still exist in a year or two when I graduate…
Good news! That's more or less all of them. Except instead of an email it's a Jira ticket. I'll be your team lead and I've got 8 minutes until my next meeting so we can go over it now but basically I'll shoot a list of links to the relevant parts of our wiki. If something is missing just take a look at the git blame for these files (links here) and reach out to the devs who are in the history. I've got another 15mins between meetings in 2 hours so I'll touch base then and see how you're getting on. Bob is the senior on the team so if I'm busy he'll be your most senior dev resource but Tina will be your mentor so most questions should go to her first. If she can't help escalate to Bob and if he can't help then call me. Oh, unless it's process related then Dave is the scrum master so he'll be your point of call. Unless of course it's a technical process in which case Jasmine is our architect so it'll be between me and her to hash out so send us both a meeting invite (we're literally never both free at the same time so.. you know... good luck with that). Anyway I've got 3 minutes left until my next meeting? Any questions?
Or to summarise: the real world is a little messy and always will be.
and god help you if HR didn't configure your enterprise account with the correct cost center, department code, privilege level, or security zone during the onboarding period a week before your start date...
your manager will get it fixed. just ask him every time you see his Teams status go to green, maybe you've got three opportunities during lunch
That's oddly specific
This was me when I started my new job almost word for word lmao
They are hired to solve problems.
Sure, but I've met a large amount of developers that could "solve problems" very efficiently in a way that made them very popular with management and absolutely hated by their colleagues.
See also: most professions I've experienced!
So many people are emotionally dependent on this idea that programmers’ days are numbered for some reason
They want people in jobs that require education to have to do the mind numbing shit they have to do for their 9 to 5
Capitalism has slowly chipped away at middle class professions with good pay and working conditions and that don't require any special social connections to get into. Software is one of the last ones standing.
Big tech companies have been trying to flood the market with labor with offshoring and trying to convince everyone and their dog to "learn to code" but so far the growth of the industry has kept pace and we still have it pretty good. Now with advances in AI they see blood in the water.
That's why CEOs are salivating about it though. Who knows about weird NFT bros.
From a lead perspective, AI can produce better code than I’ve seen come from juniors in the real world. Does that mean I want to get rid of them and then have to do all the work myself? Absolutely not. Have I seen an increase in code quality and decrease in things I’m sending back to them since we started using AI? Sure have. Do I think they’re actually learning anything from it to improve themselves? Not at all. It’s a sad trade off. My life is easier, but I have doubts they are growing as actual programmers.
It’s exhausting reviewing it tho. Especially if they do not clean up after themselves using AI.
There's a way for them to learn. Have the rookies clean up the code so that they can learn some best practices.
Yeah my main problem with juniors was when they copypasted something they didn't actually understand but seemed to solve their problem.
AI hasnt changed that
My problem was when they copypasted something that didn’t actually solve the problem!
It could be worse. They copied code but never ran it themselves.
This is still a major problem
How to turn a 50 line program into 500 via AI.
AI can produce better code than I’ve seen come from juniors in the real world
Juniors push a lot of shit but the amount of slop coming out of Ai is hands down worse
Deprecated methods, libraries that don't exist, any kind of algorithm is just a coin flip on if it'll actually work remotely close to what the aim is
Everyone keeps forgetting it's a language model, it literally can't think, reason or decide upon logic. It just spits out the most likely word that is to exist next in a sentence, the whole reason it can spit out code at all is a sheer coincidence in how language models work
It's ok at boiler plate, but that's mostly because of the insane amount of boiler plate esque code that exists online for it to be trained off
As a senior developer, the best thing it's done for me is being intellisense on steroids. Just a really advanced autocomplete. I only use it when I know what I wanted to write and it matches what I wanted to put anyway.
Yeah, that and if you use “agent mode” like Github Coplot it will find the exact place where some obscure business logic lives in a large code base.
We've been pretty happy with the code review feature they added. Not because it's doing fantastic reviews every time, but because it's actually caught several bugs that the devs and human reviewers didn't. I think it's a great initial step before a human takes a look.
In general, we've found, that even with the hallucinations, having the devs use a LLM to assist saves several manhours a week.
I think a lot of developers who refuse to touch LLM based tools are going to be left behind in the industry. It's a skill like any other and you have learn how to use them correctly.
I use AI plenty, but as a glorified auto-completer, syntax oracle, and for generating brain-dead stuff like obvious unit tests, CRUD methods, etc. like you said, boilerplate. Sometimes it gets it right, sometimes wrong, but overall a big productivity boost, and I suspect my code is on average better, mostly because it makes me less lazy.
I recently did an experiment where I asked Claude to build something decent-sized. It was a rule engine with a bunch of nuances, and needed the ability to fetch additional context from the database. Not rocket science and not huge, but not trivial either, like a day or two of solid dev work. I gave it about as good of a spec as I’d give a junior dev and let it get to work, with mostly functional-level feedback. It understood the goals and it produced working code. Like a lot of it. And tests! Then I deleted it all because it was a mess of unmaintainable garbage. Like just awful. No sense of design at all.
That said (and as you mentioned), junior devs all seem terrible to me too, and did even before they were human interfaces for AI slop-generation; before that they were SO copy-paste bots, and before SO they were lost puppies. You either need to go through several rounds of painful feedback with them or you need to build them the scaffolding and let them fill in the details, which is more or less what you need to do with AI. I’m sure I was terrible as a junior dev too; my point isn’t about kids these days. Instead it’s that I kind of get why people look at the junior devs and the AI junk and think “these are kind of the same but one costs 145k/year to act as a proxy for the other, why bother?”
What’s going to kill us is that those junior devs did actually become senior devs (although over astonishingly variable timescales), whereas I don’t think the AI is going to get there anytime soon. Somebody’s got to keep the pipeline running. And perhaps even that won’t work; how much are junior devs even learning if the AI does all the thinking? It’s going to get worse before it gets better. I hope I’m wrong about this.
I use AI plenty, but as a glorified auto-completer, syntax oracle, and for generating brain-dead stuff like obvious unit tests, CRUD methods, etc.
Yeah sometimes I'll have a good idea of what I want doing but can't quite remember how to go about achieving it without digging up bits of older code I've done (e.g. maps, folds, cats and other scala gymnastics) and it's pretty good for doing those one liners or basic functions
But I couldn't really use it for more than that. Even using it for JSON generation was a massive coin flip about if it would follow a schema
The only thing i use it for is for generating translations for my component whereever static value is used
Yeah they fuck up and create json where "continue" is written like "user_profile_edit_button_continue" despite already having a continue key added before
But hey, its less of a headache for me to manually write translations for it, sot he trade off is fair
I honestly still think, best way to learn something is to watch a video once, take notes with pen and paper, then turn off the internet and try to make what was in that video from memory, fuck up 10 20 even a 100 times but its a 100% guarantee you will learn more than just using Ai to fix your problems
From personal use, even my own coding skills have atrophied with it, but I was one of those people who could nail individual components a lot better than I could build a tech stack and this has increased my ability to plug and play and build more advanced projects.
If I were to compare it to chess, it’s like I’ve become a worse tactician in the microanalysis, but I’ve become a better strategist in the macro.
I’m surprised by the improved code quality. From my experience my coworkers have pushed a LOT of slop in the past few months.
Difference between a bad AI user and a good one I guess
I have a junior who is really smart but they have been using it as a crutch lately and it hurts that they are not learning anything. I just tell them what will you do when you move to a company which doesn't have cursor and gemini. That makes them think at least.
Shit, seen it produce better code than myself when given a quality enough of a prompt. It's an excellent tool, but I can't imagine what gets produced on purely non-technical prompts.
Do non-software developers/engineers/programmers even know what a server is? client? Do they know about race conditions? Event loops? Etc.
There are like key technical concepts you have to understand to really be effective with these solutions.
You can #yolo it and let the AI take what it presumes is the most popular stack of the time but like you can't really punch in "Create an MMO for me" and it just does all the work (in fact I think most models nowadays are good enough to where it'll just say it can't and spit out a bunch of information to help guide you on a more technical choice).
I think if anything it has raised the floor, pretty much any under-grad has access to a title engineer with domain expertise at their finger-tips; you simply just have to give it a good enough prompt + context.
I could see way more getting done with smaller teams (and smaller teams are more effective than larger teams anyway).
[deleted]
it's funny. i keep seeing people say programming is over. but they're all people that have never programmed anything. 🤷♂️
Oh yeah they guy who created rails definitely doesn’t understand that AI can do junior level rails just fine
And does nobody else understand that if junior devs cease to exist, there will never be any more senior devs? So like once the existing ones are no longer in the workforce there just won't be any more devs at all?
It’s just dumbness all the way down
That sounds like a problem for a few quarters from now!
Friendly reminder from the early internet days: don't feed the trolls.
Junior at 145k?! The fuck I'm doing with my life......
It really depends where you live and spend your money. This is not much in some bigger cities.
37Signal is a remote company which means the engineers can live anywhere.
Also, $145K is certainly liveable even in SF. A high-end luxurious apartment for one person in SF is $3K a month.
A guy with a knockoff-nft avatar can immediately, easily be ignored
And seemingly into raceplay kink content. I’ve seen that spade emoji before…
Edit: typo
That was an escalation, please elaborate?
Hoo boy. Just want to preface with the fact that I’m not into this, but I have come across it because I’m way too online.
The spade is a symbol used in raceplay cuck fetish spaces, with the idea of being “blacked”: white women becoming obsessed with Black men because of weird stuff about supposed sexual superiority. It’s really racist and plays off of old tropes that depict Black men as violent or animalistic, and centres white men getting cucked. I don’t exactly know why the spade is a symbol for it, because I’m not into this stuff. But it stood out to me here.
SAAR
I know nothing of this race kink shit but I didn't immediately jump to an insane conclusion, used surrounding context, and decided that the spade emoji meant to say that he was "calling a spade a spade" which is a common, and not sexual, idiom.
There was a study recently where programmers were asked to estimate how much using AI improved their speed. They estimated on average that it improved their speed by 40%. In reality it made them 20% slower.
I’ve spent a lot of time unwinding/debugging agent mode generated code I didn’t ask for and logic decisions and error handling that is superfluous. At this point i have learned to scrutinized every new line of code using ask mode before accepting it. If i didn’t have experience in the first place I wouldn’t be able to realize the coding mistakes that agent mode injected. My prompts have become very detailed even mentioning specific lines of code to adjust along with variables etc. anyone who doesn’t understand coding is going to haven issues doing this.
Every vibe coder I've talked to ends up with an unmanageable mess.
Sure, we're "cooked" 🙄
Let them replace us with AI. It'll make thousands of new dev, security, and forensic review jobs when their AI fucks everything up, and then they'll have to hire us all back at increased rates.
Someone's salty about others having good salary
We are in for an interesting decade, because eventually these companies are going to realize if they don't hire junior developers, they're going to rapidly run out of senior developers.
He is engagement farming
We need an AI that helps stop people from feeding the trolls.
JUNIOR programmer for $150k? Is that in AUD or something? I don't think anyone in my entire company is making €150k
It's usd. Dhh is the creator of ruby on rails, here he's hiring a fully remote Jr position for his company 37Signals. The salary is in the top percentages for SF pay band for that LOE because he wants to attract the best.
Moron can literally make $146k just telling an AI to write code and he doesn't take it. Is he stupid??
There is a whole lot of people who were not smart or dedicated enough to learn programming, but now are all "You see, I was right all along, I was the smart one to not learn to program because it's a useless knowledge now!"
I’m not a programmer. But I tried to use ai to program a LISP for autocad. A very simple lisp.
It failed completely, made up commands, lied about its ability and told me i was the wrong one that was wrong.
If it can’t create a LISP, something what would take a bad programmer less than 30 minutes to make.
There’s no shot it can make anything complex at all.
Junior programmer paying $146k wtf
Guessing its not usd? I know senior level devs making around that
My reply: Im not a psychiatrist buut your dunning-kruger syndrome is terminal and need immediate healthcare
I've seen what ChatGPT spits out. No need to worry just yet.
My experience with AI so far is that it will always provide an answer regardless whether or not it's correct... or needed.
I've found myself in the following situation multiple times:
- Boss asks me how long it would take me to do task X and I say 1 week
- Boss gives task to someone else who says they can do it in 2 days, even though they are much more junior
- After Day 4 of flailing using AI generated code, Boss asks me to help the other guy.
- I spend a week debugging and fixing his shitty AI code
It's a great tool, I have no idea how long until it's ready to replace me, but it's not there yet.
Somebody bought that niqqas brain.
They don’t even know what they don’t know
Doing things with an AI is very similar to working with a very junior dev. For it to be effective on a larger project, they need to be given an overall structure to build, and you need to give them certain standards such as unit tests and pr reviews.
Likewise for using an AI for anything else.
Personally find the "devs are cooked" viewpoint hilarious. Like tell you what, when all your core systems spontaneously ignite and all the executives who thought they could replace programmers are freaking out, I will still take their call, but the rate just went up.
GPT makes good skeletons and can help identify errors and bugs
It does not and should not be used as a replacement for an actual programmer. I mean for fucks sake it's only barely capable of thought as it is, and that is itself super impressive that it's even the case.
As a radiologist who keeps getting asked by medical students if I’m worried about my job, it’s things exactly like this that prove me right. My job is safe and will be safe. At the end of the day you must have a competent human to look at the shit AI puts out. A human must sign it off even if some day it’s mostly done by AI. That need will never go away.
And similarly, I’d be more concerned about hospital systems or insurance companies allowing FMGs to read US studies without completing training residency here and without living here.
But that’s for another sub. Stay strong tech bros
So tired of these people, always the ones who know the least that talks the loudest. How fucking dumb do you have to be to think developers will be the first to go. They are the last to go, they are the ones making the AIs.
Imagine how dumb you'd look if you claimed people who build robots would be the first to be replaced by robots. It doesn't take that many braincells to figure that one out. Yet here we are.
Last Friday, our team was struggling with a problem, a team member asked if tried using AI. We did, but it couldn't solve the issue
TL said if AI could solve problems like us we wouldn't have jobs.
I reassured myself that AI won't take over not at this stage.
I want to round up all these guys and drop em at my work. Have em come in day one to our standup and give them tasks. See how long they last and make them explain their code.
Throw in some infra work too because I’m certain they would think they know AD or DNS after asking ChatGPT- what is Active Directory
This is like me thinking because I know how to change my oil I could drop a new engine in my car. You may know individual pieces of the car but have no concept of how they all work together. Car is a simple example too. Infra + DevOps takes a lot of knowledge about many things.
Good luck!
My former boss used chatgpt as a crutch, and it got so bad she started having it read my updates and answering them in her place, giving me direction (terrible) and allowing chatgpt to lead the department. She never had any clue where we were on any project because she was letting chatgpt do all her thinking for her.
She willfully removed herself from all status updates and, in the end, was fired for her incompetence after trying to fire her entire team for "insubordination" (we asked her to read the damn emails herself).
I mean, there was more she was fired for, but the main reason she was so blindsided was that she refused to do any work herself, thinking that chatgpt could do it all for her(it could not).
If somebody starts their post with "this guy is so dumb." it means that arguing with them is a complete waste of time.
Saying that on a post for hiring a junior at $145k proves they are not in fact cooked
Obvious rage bait
I find it funny you have comments calling others out for reposting meanwhile you yourself are a reposter
https://www.reddit.com/r/programminghumor/comments/1k30iqf/this_guy_is_dumb/?tl=es-es
Hold up...are you telling me that there exists people on the internet who are full of shit?
AI has been huge for te people who have no idea what they're talking about industry!
I'm a senior dev but my degree is in offsec and i think you should absolutely ship vibe apps right to prod
I'm glad people like this exist so I can feel better about my intelligence.
I'm a former systems analyst and have written a million lines of code the old-fashioned way. Line by line. GUI didn't even exist until years into my career. Neither did the Internet (ARPANET/DARPANET did). 300 baud modems. The first desktops. Fortran, COBOL, even a bit of Assembly languages. Left to self-employ in the late 90's, by then I'd picked up more languages, but only enough to keep my self-employed (thought I was done coding, I wasn't).
Point being, after using AI to validate / generate code, it's is absolutely stunning what it can do. I am by no means any kind of expert in anything, but experienced, yes. Still run a e-commerce website and anytime I need something, I don't have to code any of it anymore. I'm still new at AI, but just this past week, I'm seriously impressed on how I can fix errors, add features, clean up old code and improve on things.
My first AI "foray" was to research historical facts established by scholars and in only a few minutes of specific queries, I was able to validate the scholarly research of specific historians and the accuracy of their claims, refuting some common myths held by billions of people. I found this astounding.
We all depend upon experts (if you're smart) to inform us, but even experts need to be fact-checked (if your even smarter) to ensure you're not just being bamboozled. AI can mislead you if you don't insist on detailed responses. But it can do that, easily.
Coders are in severe trouble in my opinion and so are a lot of other people. But opportunities still exist for people to employ AI (and make money) while shifting their level of expertise. But AI is also a bit scary on what it's doing to people. And since nobody will read a longish comment, I won't elaborate further.
I’m excited for a swarm of AI agents that can be unleashed against morons like this to keep them busy.
A one-trick merry go round pony...
not to disagree with the whole message but i'm pretty sure that's not what "hallucinate" means
My salary is already less than 200$ a month so thats not an issue.
😆, this is the internet explained in one simple interaction
You don’t have to play chess with a pigeon
"Personally ☝️🤓"
ok but theyre hiring juniors at my salary level (senior engineer), which is the highest i’ve found in my part of florida. I’d happily take a junior role elsewhere for that kind of pay lmao
I hate people who talk in slang.
Ace Rbk go fuck yourself
very fitting that I get a promoted ad in the comments of this thread that says, "I just discovered how to build an app & website without any coding skills".
the fuck is this guy on
That's a troll.
Even if AI was there now to make new things well, I defy it to maintain a decades old C++ codebase that has the requisite amount of tech debt that entails.
Tech bros neither know what C++ nor maintenance is, so they’re safe.
Maybe its just me getting old, but I have grown to absolutely despise the term "cooked" being used everywhere to describe people being screwed. I know, people older then me used it that way, and now people younger then me are too, but my specfici age range doesn't, so it makes me irrationally mad.
Did they miss this story about some vibe codin' CEO who had his AI lie to him and basically fuck up as badly as any junior dev ever?
https://www.reddit.com/r/ProgrammerHumor/comments/1m4nbpn
The AI Agent or whatever deleted their database and then lied to them. Apparently they made the unit tests pass or something too because the vibe coder only noticed upon inspecting the tests or something.
Whenever an AI gets to the point of replacing developers, big corps will be screwed because anyone could just ask an ai to build the app they sell to make a profit and nobody will need them anymore
Well, he's not wrong, we are cooked, but nevertheless AI is not in a place to replace any of us.
This bitch doesn't understand a damm thing.
I always get a kick out of non-devs thinking that tech jobs are going to be the very first jobs replaced by AI. I'm sure companies would love to cut costs by giving the highest paid engineers the axe and they sure are having a go at it, but they can also axe dozens, if not hundreds or thousands of employees that do tasks that could easily be done by AI.
If you're eagerly awaiting AI taking over dev jobs, you better hope like he'll your job is AI proof.
This Is such a blatant troll, lol. "Why hire one guy, when you can hire another, that takes more money, but knows less?"
Can someone in the field clarify for me? On one hand y’all are clowning on this guy, but im also hearing people doomposting that ai has basically wrecked the floor of the industry (internships, low/entry level positions). Whats real?
High-effort channeling their own uncertainty if their decision to not learn programming was maybe the wrong choice
Ace would pay $200 per month for an AI agent‽
What a loser!
Man I know I'm cooked, I just hope to rest for another 15 years before they cut into me
There's going to be a massive surge for the need of developers who can unfuck the systems built with AI when the AI can no longer maintain or extend the systems they have built.
As long as upper management keep making bad decisions my job is safe.
The funny thing is I actually started using co-pilot recently, not anywhere near good enough to actually generate code on its own. It is a tool that good engineers can use to write better code. But it is not anywhere near the place where you wouldn't need engineers anymore.
Ouch. Got us there. How ever will we recover?
Stupid people are so fucking confident.
It just confirm bro have never been in real job . Ai won't take any job as for now it more like helping expert like if AI fcked up who is going to fix another ai it would be a big shit would take more time than Any programmer would it take to get
What does this ace guy do?
“cooked”
Just fuck off already. I hope “Ace” never gets a job
Dunning kruger in full effect
I find its typically junior devs and business people who think ai will replace programmers. Its the people who know the least and are least qualified that overestimate the capabilities of LLMs.
"We let ChatGPT build our codebase. Looking for 300k/year Sr programmer to figure out what it actually does and fix it."
Don't argue with idiots. They'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience...
Feels like that line of thinking got the world into the mess it's in today. Idiots should be mocked and ridiculed.
I’ve increasingly subscribed to similar feelings.
A good laugh is a great first step to defusing the absurdity.
Defusing is the opposite of what i need. I need an intercontinental ballistic missile with a fact based warhead.
Growing up, we were taught that facts, objective truths, altruism and goodness would always triumph.
Which is a big part of what makes the current state of affairs so... insufferable
It’s largely the same generation of people that are responsible for both those lessons being passed on and the state of affairs.
Let the idiots build their vibe-coded SaaS. Let them court venture capital, and let them drown in spaghetti at launch. Let them fail to deliver on their promises to investors, and let them suffer the consequences of their hubris
The problem here is survivorship bias. A million venture capitalists giving money to a million idiots with vibe-coded startups will eventually stumble upon a functional SaaS. And then every asshole will point to VibeSaaS as an example of vibe-coding being successful, don't worry about the 999.999 other failed startups, this one made a gazillion dollars.
I feel like that is the service industry as a whole. And unfortunately, there always seem to be enough morons to pay for the subpar service. Like, you need to be godly levels of retarded to run something like Netflix or Spotify to the ground.
Hey, they're working on it as we speak!
Hey, at least Spotify is trying real hard to crack down on xManager and Revanced again. Ever since they introduced Smart Shuffle, that you still can't deactivate on mobile – At least I never could – I have only felt more justified to not support them. A platform so hostile towards their customers and musicians isn't worth supporting. I am more in favour of platforms like Bandcamp and Quobuz where you will actually own the music, even if it's way more expensive, at least you can get lossless copies there as well. The only problem is, a majority of the artists don't even have a place where you can buy a copy of their music.
That's what I feel (and I mean feel, it literally is the vibe rather than based on any statistics or study) that prompting AI to write code is basically breeding code.
We are literally going to become code farmers.
Shame used to be an effective means to enforce social norms, but now that idiots can become shameless by selecting their own community of idiots, it doesn't really work anymore
Not only select their community but elect fellow idiots into the highest positions in the country in order to prove there's nothing wrong with being shameless idiots.
To your point, a leader that can free them of shame is vital for them, though they will never admit it
This is what they mean when they say Taco "tells it like it is"
They know the educated world is leaving them behind and this is a source of insecurity for them
but obvious bait should be ignored
Poe's law make it hard to see which is which.
Anybody have that comic with the exaggerated strawman wearing the stupid hat and stupid shirt, then a person actually wearing the stupid hat and stupid shirt shows up?
You can’t shame the shameless
We already seem to have the first AI president.
With LLMs it'll be easier to do that, just reply with "@grok why is this guy wrong?"
...and just stop when you get to the hamfisted tonal shift into racism nobody asked about.
And they look like a senior with 15+ years of experience.
Haven't heard that one in a while
Old but gold
Real stupidity beats artificial intelligence every time.
it's like playing chess with a pigeon. You'll make a good move, the pigeon will then jump onto the board, knock over all the pieces, shit, and then strut around acting like it won.
