It depends
It is a good way to get commit credit.
I used to see people with code completion just pick functions without understanding what they chose. Often it was the wrong choice because they didn't take time to learn the std library. Anyhow... I have lots of not nice things to say about some of the tools people use.

Haha. He went on to explain that when using VSCode he never really understood make, cmake, or command line invocations. The tools just kind of did things and he never really learned what it was doing. I get this. 1/2

its amazing how chatgpt knows everything about subjects I know nothing about, but is wrong like 40% of the time in things im an expert on. not going to think about this any further
I generally don't try to out-guess the C++ compiler. I pass by value. If I'm really concerned because of placement in a loop algorithm or something that might be impactful I will measure or look at the generated code. One problem is that the generated code can change based on other things.
I miss things just being on irc with plain-ol-text. I'd go back to that in a heartbeat.

I've updated the readme to my project repo.
This is now my portfolio in terms of the job hunt for tech work.

Acrylics on canvas board. Trying to learn.
I couldn't find one at a local store so I gave in and purchased from Amazon. I'm loving it!
That seems on brand.

Metric tape measure
I'm far more excited about this than makes sense. I finally have a metric only tape measure.
"The sweeping study... found that using AI in education can 'undermine children's foundational development' and that 'the damages it has already caused are daunting.'"
They include limiting kids' cognitive, social, and emotional developmen, and increasing inequity.

I was a regular at a place where I would always order "breve". One day the barista said, "you have had two breves already today. Do you think non-fat might be better?"
No
Still the best language I have found for the targets I like to work on.
I read that Jensen wants you to apologize for bagging on AI.
When my worlds overlap. @patigallardo.bsky.social responding to a Kai Ryssdal post.
I read your updates, including your coding posts. My feed is saturated with mostly horrible news... Your posts are a relief
But it was on top!!
Got my copy of @dtemkin.bsky.social's Forty-Four Esolangs, which I think is a must-read for anyone interested in programming languages and art.
It's basically Italo Calvino's Invisible Cities for code
Fun talk JF!
