Yeah, that’s cool, but too much like work for me. The keyboard thing is a bit awkward, but manageable. I keep it in my keyboard tray (which I never use for a keyboard, otherwise).
Why arbitrarily invent new meanings (for microservices) and new words (microlibraries) when there are already many adequate ways to describe modular, componentized architecures?
A totally valid and important point but it has been diluted by talking about microservices rather than importance of modular architectures for agent-based coding.
We all change with time, whether we want it or not. You can influence that change of your mind and soul, just like you can influence how your body changes.
If you fake being a better person than you are within, then by time you will be given by others more trust, more love, more opportunities. The sands of time will start to erase the old personality and implement the new, which is more reflective of the better environment you're finding yourself in. The good parts of the old you stay, while the bad parts are washed away.
This can be implemented on an industrial scale with military indoctrination, where they can take absolute scum and turn them into honorable soldiers and officers.
But you aren't just asking for edits to your code, right? Copilot will actively suggest code completion as you type. This is the real benefit over chat as it's like pair programming.
That, and the way it generates commit comments, I don't think I will write another commit message even again.
The first paragraph implies that they are. I’m doing the same, works really well for writing new code or refactoring. Then polish it up by pointing out bad parts in the chat. At the end I step in and do some manual polish.
I use VS Code too and in agent mode I can say things like “move the database querias into a new module called models.py and convert the SQL into SQLModel classes”. It’s pretty awesome to do chores.
They went all-in on Teams just before the start of COVID, and MS don't typically support multiple overlapping products like Google do (although the number of task management products may be a counter-argument to that).
I tend to think standards are more about interoperability at the interface level - which doesn't specifically exclude innovation in non-interfacing aspects. So in that sense I don't think standards are synonymous with LCD.
Sure, that makes sense. I'm an anti-standards person, but lots of people are pro. I just don't think the labor theory of value enters into it very much!
>The other challenge is finding people, especially as you get older. I've posted this before, but as you get older you really need to seek out established communities. Sports, trivia nights, things of that nature. Something where you can hop in and immediately meet 5+ people. Then you need to show up, over and over. That's how friendships form.
The article follows similar lines, but I feel "forcing friendships" just leads to shallow "friendships" with little meaning. In fact so many modern friendships are sustained by small talk, which Carl Jung derides as meaningless..
The enshitification is real, but I would attribute that to being hijacked by advertising platforms.
Social media algorithms are literally derived from algorithms for showing relevant ads, and as a result you must be "identified" anywhere you go.
Two easy solutions for a better experience:
1. Don't use any sites that use algorithms exclusively (e.g. no Facebook, use Youtube subscriptions rather than the front page, etc.)
2. Don't use sites that require you to login unless there is clear value in doing that (e.g. you can browse Reddit without logging in if you don't intend to comment, etc.)
