This reminds me of that interview setup of “I’m really fast at math” “oh really? Quick what’s 37X21.5?” “42” “…. That’s not even close” “but,… it was fast”
- My IQ is over 300 ! - Oh my god ! Does that mean you're a genius ?! - NO, I'm stupid FASTER
Homer: "There is the right way and the wrong way, and then there is the max power way." Bart: "What is that dad?" Homer: "The wrong way, but really fast."
this sounds like the typical dougdoug stream and it'll be the funniest 3 hours of coding you've ever seen
Thor draws squares
"It's rude not letting your enemy make mistakes"
This is probably why dougdougs 5 minute coding adventures always take like 2 hours
There is also a huge difference between bad code that works and good code that works. Scaling, preformance, future bugs when building off of it, variables being named awkwardly, etc
"Turns out adderall doesn't make you write good, it just makes you write a lot..." ~ Brian Griffin
This has the same energy as that Gif with "Fast, Good, and Cheap" as switches that can only have 2 switched on at the same time. It's truly like people do not understand that often times things you want are competing factors and at times really ARE mutually exclusive with each other.
Thats standard industry practice in apartment maintenance. We spent $18,000 on a water main fix that we could have fixed for $8000. So they got the cheap contractor to do it for $6000. Well it lasts about 8 months. Call original contractor. So the "expensive" contractor that would do it for $8000 is now charging $12000 because they know they have to fix the first guys mistakes. But i swear they think they saved money because it was on different quarters of their books.
I wonder if AI code is useful... as a teaching tool. "Here's some AI code, now debug it and actually make it work."
So basically, instead of debugging something you somewhat understand, you’re debugging something you have no understanding whatsoever
“The risk was calculated, but boy am I bad at math.”
Use it just as a glorified autocomplete, because that's what it is
his content is like a coin: - 50% chance it's something inspiring or educational. - 50% chance it's something cursed.
writing it myself for the most part usually makes debugging 10x easier just cause it guarantees I'm at least fairly familiar with the code and what its doing. im not opposed to using ai for some snippets or even minor corrections to my code though
My favorite moment with AI was ChatGPT taking 20 lines to say hello world in Java
“it’s hot and ready” “but is it good?” “it’s hot.. and it’s ready.”
