Ireland needs this. I don’t live there anymore, but the amount of ads literally everywhere you go there these days is insane.

Gambling ruins lives.

Sometimes PRDs might be boilerplate, but there’s been times where I sat down thinking “I can’t believe these dumbasses want to foo a widget”, but when writing the user story I get into their heads a little and I realize that widgets are useless if they can’t be foo’d. It’s not the same if AI is just telling me, because amongst the fire hose of communication and documentation flying at me, AI is just another one. Writing it myself forces me to actually engage, even if only a little more than at a shallow level.

I think that an actionable critique might be that there’s an overuse of “big word” adverbs and adjectives.

This should be a normal thing you can do on a kindle. I miss kindle magazines.

Statistically speaking, most guns are not used for crime, and even among uses, crime is probably small compared to military or even hunting etc.

Do you only work on projects individually? Without project-specific environments I don’t know how you could share code with someone else without frequent breakages.

Old cars sound better and better every year now.

They’ll just make it illegal for you to drive them.

Its illegal to drive under the influence now. "Just making something illegal" doesn't work

Meanwhile in much of the USA registration laws aren't enforced. The last time my car was totaled (hit and run) the police didn't even show up for that either so my insurance company just ate the whole cost. DUI laws themselves are largely only enforced to the extent the accused consents to bothering to show up to court.

It seems like the least efficient way to solve the problem. Theres lots of water in many places in the US, if water is just allowed to be priced by how scarce it is in California, maybe people will move to a place where it’s not such a big deal.

This is the sort of low quality reply that made me think twice about commenting. Every time I mention it it's another set of poor quality, no thought, drive by responses and downvotes.

Why do you think it's good to let the productive agricultural land of CA lay fallow? Why do you want areas in the east to go without proper flood control? Why do you think national food security is not a priority? I could go on... Read up on it if you like, or don't. Whatever.

I’m not a fan of people who say a comment is low quality because someone disagrees with them. I’m not going to engage any further with this discussion.

Disagreement is not the reason. You responded that you thought it was preferable to depopulate the most productive state in the nation. Come on man.

I don’t know who I would’ve like to see but them, buy OpenAI is not it. Sad day for uv, ruff and ty users.

There’s a great 1983 paper on “the ironies of automation” with interesting thoughts on this. For example, if nobody knows the 80%, how do they gain experience to do the hard 20%? Or, if operators become essentially low skilled, low status babysitters, the smart people required to cover the challenging 20% might just leave for higher status roles. It’s been posted here before, worth a read if you haven’t come across it.
