I barely post anymore here. The engagement is so low for the non-biggest channels, barely existing.

I think this a big part of it. Developers talk about their experience with GenAI coding, but we come from way different places. I do a lot of solo prototyping for work, a lot of my code is a conversation starter. In this stage llms make you. 2-3 times faster, but in later stages it's maybe 20-30%

I'm 179.5 cm, the metric equivalent. It's the most trustworthy length, no one would lie about it.

Have mixed feelings as well. One the one hand debugging while vibe coding is super frustrating. On the other hand, it has been amazing for throwaway demo's and prototypes. I can aim for things I wouldn't have the time for normally.

Excel is one of the safest messaging technology out there. No message leaves your device and no risk of the other person leaking information.

I like them, it's a good heuristic to not read any text around it
