haha Bob!! I'll definitely remember that THIS Bob knows what he's doing

Like, yes, do I send sloppy PRs? Absolutely. But I also say so ("this is a quick hack, I haven't tested it much"). Can AI make one more productive if used properly? Absolutely.

But letting AI be the driver sounds as wild to me as trusting self-driving cars and falling asleep at the wheel.

I don't know about others but it is wild to me to be willingly giving this up as an engineer.

I'd rather painstakingly hunt-and-peck every character into the IDE than "save time" and lose my credibility attached to my name.

I personally worked my whole career towards the fact, that if someone knows me and receives a PR from me, it has my name on it. This comes with a certain level of guarantee that I'm quite proud of. Quality of craftsmanship if you will.

This is one of the most valuable things I have attained.

so now when they say "I vibed it" there's basically no longer an implicit seal of quality backing it up. You can no longer say "oh, this is Bob, he knows what he's doing"

engineers are basically professional understanders of complex systems. When someone I respect sends a PR I trust that it reflects a reasonably complete model of the system in their head. AI doesn't have it, it has an educated guess with varying levels of plausibility.

I've always thought there's too much ceremony around inline tasks syntax

I haven't seen this syntax yet!

don't worry fam, I've got him covered on weekends

MSBuild, and the log viewer from msbuildlog.com

better late than never! Really wish I wrote this tool 20 years ago, would have saved so much pain. Ah well.

Russell's paradox!!

must be a Black Sea joke!

In Odesa, a man's watch broke. He sees a store with the clock sign, walks in, says my watch is broken.

The store owner: but we don't repair watches.
Man: what do you do?
Store owner: circumcision
Man: but why is there a clock sign?
Store owner: what would you like me to hang up there instead?
