Programming@programming.dev•How are you fighting back against skill atrophy caused by AI at work?
2·3 days agoI forgot to add one thing. You can still have fun too. While colleagues add the 30th one-off script to the tree, you can make a bot that critiques it and puts it on Slack. Is that reasonable? Doesn’t matter, make it fun and use some obscure language and learn while at it. That test suite you know would be amazing but never had time or mindshare to build? Side project it away, building up your AI tooling to the point you can just ask for it. Those N repos with broken makefiles? Same. Fun is still around, just changed.

Programming@programming.dev•How are you fighting back against skill atrophy caused by AI at work?
55·3 days agoThere’s a lot here but to pick a small point to argue, have you been brushing up on your assembly skills? Perhaps you keep in mind the internals of TLS or wonder about ECS in games? The stuff that needs to be cared about has just changed one level up again. What remains is what remained before too, the critical thinking that led to the post. The work case seems to be that people don’t care. I’d have a hard time believing that before AI that codebase was good. Even in my work with the gnarly non-AI legacy, monstrous things remain unacceptable, it just won’t be merged, AI or not.
Practical suggestion: try to influence the automated code review for better, an improved model, or harness, instructions to complain about what annoys you, more context etc. and even examples of bad recent work. But it seems in your workplace it would be ignored and merges would happen anyway. That too is not new, AI just amplifies, and the solution remains a new job, as before, mostly, and for however long we still have them.

Technology@lemmy.world•Relying on AI is rotting your brain. But here’s what you can do about it: Each new tech product is designed to make our lives easier and keep us mindlessly entertained. Switch off: embrace discomfort!English

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Where do you see us going? Everything is shit and going to shit.
1·13 days agoUntil people can be fully substituted for robots, leading us into some Altered Carbon dystopia, there’s hope in me. When regular people are not needed to produce goods then we’re fucked.
But the timing is nice. Just before technology lands us in that dystopia we’re getting a new swing towards social common sense. The other side swung early. Thankfully.
There’s also a whole new generation of politicians just now getting into more powerful roles, and economic crashes such as the one we seem to be heading into most often generates a social reset.
And I think the groups that took a long while to start erecting their spine, hopefully won’t crawl back too easily - long to wake up, long to sleep.

Brasil@lemmy.eco.br•O Brasil pode estar se encaminhando para uma nova "politica do café com leite" ?
3·1 month agoAcho que a reestruturação global com a bagunça toda e agora IA vai defasar esse paradigma porque as deficiências estão claras e uma nova geração de políticos vai assumir o poder nas escalas altas conforme os veteranos se aposentem de um modo ou outro. E também é sempre um pêndulo e parece que chegamos num extremo e portanto vem um período contrário. Sem contar os desastres naturais que vão chacoalhar tudo. Com reset da economia vem um reset político e social. Ou vamos reto a distopia completa e isso também vai deixar de importar. induzida*

23·1 month agoSeems to be a common theme with modders and since way before AI. It’s weird.

Ask Science@lemmy.world•If an electron does quantum leaps or quantum tunneling, how does it know or have we figured out where it will end up? How do we know it's the same electron? Do they have signatures or tells?English
8·1 month agoall I can add is there are no tags or signs for any specific electron other than statistics and experimental control. modern YouTube has many treasure channels on these topics.

Believing I was watching Fire Walk With Me, I was actually watching the extra scenes. Given TP is TP I just thought “what the hell”. Watched all seasons but not fwwm. Yet.

Weren’t even some ideators of Israel against it because it would be more sensible (and powerful) to have the Jewish as groups in different nationalities around that area and have power as people instead of as a State that would cause the conflicts that it does and need help for protection as it does? Commenting on the pink part, which seems half reasonable.
