I'm not taking that position, I'm taking the position of acknowledging how badly it is being used while also taking point on how useful for Devs it is. I was acknowledging the position I am in due to my life in coding work, to give proper context.
You are in an Australian server, I didn't know that the American AI Dev erasure craze had expanded there, it definitely is affective the Spanish junior positions, but in my data engineering sector, senior positions are permanently lacking.
In any case, I'm sorry for your friends, but I'd be surprised if they don't find another job fast. Job offers in my country for senior positions have not been reduced, and given that junior positions are being reduced and seniors eventually retire, I don't see enough reduction to fill the vacuum that the lack of junior is going to create in senior fields.
Mind you, I'm not saying this to say I don't care, it's actually the opposite. I'm saying this to say that I care even though I don't think it will affect me personally in a risk my paycheck kinda way.
You are right, I guess I was unnecessarily defending python too much.
Iirc with typescript was is the one that takes care of the transpilation step, so you can technically just code and the press deploy like with python or js. But yeah, you are right, this discussion is irrelevant to the topic of the post.
Agreed that the OG post doesn't deserve anyone's time, which is why I acknowledged that they successfully baited me lol. I think I did.
I'm frustrated with the fact that AI is replacing a lot of junior positions, and with people that use it to fully automate tasks. It does not bode well for the future of the industry.
I'm not a junior dev though, and I use AI as a tool, which is what it is, to plan changes, search for potential issues while I check something else, then review their output and so on. The premise is that I do understand our code very well, and that I know exactly what must be done when proposing changes. It helps me autocomplete while I write, check hard to find docs or write/format doc pages. I always search for actual real sources before committing anything.
It's a tool, it would be crazy to keep using a hatchet because chainsaws sometimes injure people. With proper training and knowledge a chainsaw helps you work faster.
Now, there was no LLM when I was a junior Dev so I acknowledge that my position is a bit of "f u I got mine", but we can't deny that it's a very useful tool that helps in coding
Still completely against and very frustrated with the full automation and erasure of junior positions though. It won't affect me that much personally, but the industry will hurt, individuals will suffer and that's horrible.
Let me remind you there's a world cup coming. People all over the world will go to the US, about a month after the cruise, right when the virus is apparently in incubation.
I'm not trying to be alarmist, but you know, better to keep track of events.
I never planned visiting the US until your laws become normal, which won't happen, so what will reporting someone that isn't from the US to the FBI do huh? Jack shit probably.
About 1, I was commenting on the serverless world, a big part of today's cloud infrastructure, and AWS is one of the major cloud providers. I feel like, to show the relevance of a language compared to another, it kinda does matter that you can't code directly and let the provider compile your small-ish program.
About 2, it works with the generic runtime for sure, but almost everything does, technically C++ does too lol, meaning that you need to upload the binary that you compile locally or via some sort of pipeline. Which is worse than say, using typescript and letting them transpiled it into is so Node can run it. It's not supported in that way.
In any case, you wouldn't really use a compiled language like Go to have small-ish serverless functions. Go does have a use case ofc, I'm just making a case of how not obsolete python is.
... Is this bait??? How in the hell is python an old language??? It gets new releases, it's readable, it's used everywhere for everything (sometimes when it shouldn't but this is not the case tho). It has tools and binds for basically everything.
Also, comparing it with a compiled language, good one. Guess what is and what isn't used in serverless functions, Lambda doesn't even support Go ffs. It's java, ruby, node and python. And from those most use node or python.
What the hell, good bait I guess. I'm coming back to write more lol.
Personal wall of bs full of fringe leftist commentary and hate.
Dude can't hold himself from insulting anyone he names
I didn't even got to the third paragraph
For context, these are the first three paragraphs of the article. There's no mention of a single name, it's basically the introduction. The third paragraph is the statement that they then are supposed to support with facts. This is standard in writing a document:
"""Some time ago, I noticed some new organization called FUTO popping up here and there. I’m always interested in seeing new organizations that fund open source popping up, and seeing as they claim several notable projects on their roster, I explored their website with interest and gratitude. I was first confused, and then annoyed by what I found. Confused, because their website is littered with bizzare manifestos,1 and ultimately annoyed because they were playing fast and loose with the term “open source”, using it to describe commercial source-available software.
FUTO eventually clarified their stance on “open source”, first through satire and then somewhat more soberly, perpetuating the self-serving myth that “open source” software can privilege one party over anyone else and still be called open source. I mentally categorized them as problematic but hoped that their donations or grants for genuinely open source projects would do more good than the harm done by this nonsense.
By now I’ve learned better. tl;dr: FUTO is not being honest about their “grant program”, they don’t have permission to pass off these logos or project names as endorsements, and they collaborate with and promote mask-off, self-proclaimed fascists."""
Did... Did you read something completely different? What the hell? The only thing remotely hateful in the first three paragraphs is them using the word fascists, right in the end, and you dropped the article before giving the author a chance to support their claim? Are you 5?
Sorry, that was maybe too aggressive, but you might not even reach this text if you drop stuff the moment you read a word you dislike lmao.
Okay, understood, you would indeed be promoting the malicious file even though it wouldn't be an issue for you personally. Then agree with the other comment, block it in the torrent client directly.
Thanks for the recommendation, I usually don't read the articles themselves unless they say something controversial to fact check, but this was a very interesting and through read.
By freely published you mean papers that are published by paying them, right?
They take money for papers to be published, they force researchers to freely peer review, and then they paywall the fuck out of that paper. It's one of the biggest scams I've ever read about, 10 years ago... Thank god computer science, math and physics (basically most STEM) have arXiv...
Have you read the amount of responses in this post? 😂
No way the definition of normal I gave is the common one. At some point it doesn't really matter what the dictionary says, if enough people change the meaning of a word they use, it changes meaning.
Still interesting to look at the roots of a word to see original meanings and so on though.
That's why I specified that the things I like doing, that feel natural to me, aren't thing i think are very normal, but "natural". Even though I know that they are not normal, they are in my nature, for whatever reason.
The moment you are told that something is abnormal, you can't think of it as very normal, by definition, no? 😅 You might still think that you prefer it, that it feels natural to you (it's in your nature, personal preference), but not normal.
I'm surprised that anyone is answering anything. If something would seem very normal to me, as in, I think this is something everyone does, I wouldn't know of it would seem odd to anyone else. By virtue of it seeming very normal to me.
Something being normal is rooted on it being the norm, as in, something typical. If you think something is odd, you can't feel like it's normal just for you, that's not what the norm means. Maybe it seems natural to you? Sure, but not normal.
Sorry for my reading my pedantic rant. In my case, these kind of rationalizations of the language using its roots seem pretty natural and fun but I know most people look at me weird for over analysing stuff.
From those only pentest has kind of a sus name. But that's understandable, hackers are degenerates. Also there's a reason it's called pentest and not the full name lmao.
As I said, I don't really care since they're quite the POS and this is not a court of law. I just wanted to give extra context to give proper framing to the point that I felt the other commenter didn't properly drive through. If you still disagree, fine by me, no need to be so combative <3
I'm not taking that position, I'm taking the position of acknowledging how badly it is being used while also taking point on how useful for Devs it is. I was acknowledging the position I am in due to my life in coding work, to give proper context.
You are in an Australian server, I didn't know that the American AI Dev erasure craze had expanded there, it definitely is affective the Spanish junior positions, but in my data engineering sector, senior positions are permanently lacking.
In any case, I'm sorry for your friends, but I'd be surprised if they don't find another job fast. Job offers in my country for senior positions have not been reduced, and given that junior positions are being reduced and seniors eventually retire, I don't see enough reduction to fill the vacuum that the lack of junior is going to create in senior fields.
Mind you, I'm not saying this to say I don't care, it's actually the opposite. I'm saying this to say that I care even though I don't think it will affect me personally in a risk my paycheck kinda way.
