Honestly, good. Getting sick of the “professional” world being so goddamn stiff and boring. Push back against sanitized corporate aesthetics.

You need to design a dystopian near-future tabletop RPG of some kind.

It’s not very good at it though, if you’ve ever used it to code. It automates and eases a lot of mundane tasks, but still requires a LOT of supervision and domain knowledge to not have it go off the rails or hallucinate code that’s either full of bugs or will never work. It’s not a “prompt and forget” thing, not by a long shot. It’s just an easier way to steal code it picked up from Stackoverflow and GitHub.

Me as a human will know to check how much data is going into a fixed size buffer somewhere and break out of the code if it exceeds it. The LLM will have no qualms about putting buffer overflow vulnerabilities all over your shit because it doesn’t care, it only wants to fulfill the prompt and get something to work.

C++ because I use it for embedded systems, interfaces with and can easily use C code (opening up the ability to use 40+ years of libraries and already written code), and I’m 43 years old and don’t feel like learning an entirely new programming paradigm (I like OOP it makes the most sense to me).

I like being able to drill down and manage all my own resources like memory, etc. when I need to as well. I’ll use raw pointers with higher level abstractions all day depending on what’s convenient.

technological breakthroughs

What, the dumbass case design with the useless flat corner bits awkwardly sticking out of it wasn’t innovative enough for you?

Started messing around with it some time in 2003, on Mandrake Linux when I was 21 years old. Experimented and ran servers with various distros in the years since but it didn’t become my daily driver until about 2014-15, with Debian.

It was enough for yo mom ohhhhhhhh!

j/k

The world is going to be absolutely fucked when the older engineers and techies who built all this modern shit and/or maintain it and still understand it all retire or die off.

Gotta save that stock price somehow. Activate investor bullshit machine.

Time to sail the high seas. When they leave no other option…🏴‍☠️

Kerbal Space Program. Loved KSP1, but still salty about spending $60 on the pre release of KSP2 thinking it would help fund development. Never again. Learned my lesson for sure. Both versions are basically dead now. It was a fun ride while it lasted.

Nope, stolen from a Telegram group chat, not sure where it’s originally from.

That’s the static variable in the function sticking around and watching the madness unfold.

It’s 2025, not 2007. This is a huge exaggeration. Maybe try it again sometime.

The article is about Altair BASIC. That one was actually homegrown.

I remember some dude on the Internet with a jar and an MLP figurine that might be able to help you out.

Who asked for this? Did y’all ask for this? I don’t remember asking for this.

Looks around room in confusion

KDE since 2002. KDE 4 lyfe.
