Very interesting way to avoid using Python. As a Python-hater myself, I appreciate this greatly.

Considering that ML is a pretty important field, and will continue to be going into the future, this is an option I have to keep my eye on.

This is really fascinating. Something to note is that the sample size is narrow focused on experienced developers with particular famous open source projects (average 5 years and 1,500 commits on the project in question).

In my own job I also have a novel, long-term situation so I can really sympathize with the prime slowdowns they identify. AI just doesn’t cut it.

Really heartfelt piece that cuts through the noise imo. It deals with it quite fairly.

Definitely an interesting perspective. Makes a lot of points I agree with.

Least surprising thing ever. I do hope this makes it back to court hearings. I don’t really have an issue with LLMs in concept, but in practice these companies are really abhorrent.

Here’s to hoping!

Another great article about the current state of academia in the midst of LLMs.

This article describes my classmates (thankfully not me) that I have encountered in college thus far. Not a great experience. Rather demoralizing.

If you didn’t plan to think or learn in college… then when?

This is something I’m considering as an alternative to, for instance, VooCode for VsCode.

I use Helix editor, and there’s no real LLM support built into it (it’s a traditional modal editor).

I’m not wholly convinced on AI agents for code use, since I like being able to fully comprehend the code I’m making, but it’s nice to have an option if I’m going that route.
