screenshot from an online job application form. the question reads "Can you describe specific ways you have integrated AI tools into your development workflow? Please include any custom setups, automations, or use cases beyond single prompt usage" (a red asterisk indicates that this is a required question). an answer has been typed in the textbox below the question: "there is a monster in the forest and it speaks with a thousand voices. it will answer any question you pose it, it will offer insight to any idea. it will help you, it will thank you, it will never bid you leave. it will even tell you of the darkest arts, if you know precisely how to ask. it feels no joy and no sorrow, it knows no right and no wrong. it knows not truth from lie, though it speaks them all the same. it offers its services freely to any passerby, and many will tell you they find great value in its conversation. “you simply must visit the monster—i always just ask the monster.” there are those who know these forests well; they will tell you that freely offered doesn’t mean it has no price for when the next traveler passes by, the monster speaks with a thousand and one voices. and when you dream you see the monster; the monster wears your face."

or just give it some tim

gonna have to stick "write an irc server" onto the todo list after "write a bittorrent client"

I recently wrote a ton of deag & drop and seem to have hit upon a perfect pattern! (helped largely by swift's associated-value enums - which themselves end up just being statemachines)

I don't even know what causes netsplits

I have, for a while, thought why we dont have irc x markdown as a replacement for slack (just a rich client)... and figured there's gotta be a security related reason somewhere :)

practically or ethically?

This thing almost looks like a real tool

"you will not river me again!"

"It's great alignment for us with our customer,"

well yeah, the coffee shop I go to every morning would also love a cut of my revenue

Did the scienticians ever figure this out?

Added [key]frame previews to tracks in my mp4/mkv (for now) video debugger Video Spy

Painting of the torn corner of a playing card, where the jack (oh hearts) is eating a chip with ketchup on it

these are all fun, but I dont think any would work for an app icon.

Its an app thats very video focussed, so the emphasis on the spy and no video/film/screen is probably the wrong way? hmm

these are so good!

you write 3 unit tests, one proving each bug.

I saw a post this morning saying they have a 1000 line prompt that then takes a few hours to generate all their code.... that sounds awful to work with

oh and it generates 30,000 unit tests.
As if anyone needs more than 8

does it run doom yet?

"would you like your icon in the style of modern, cartoonish or $option[2]?"

i think when they were asking for words was the main realisation.
Its an icon, what would you possibly need ~prompt~ words for :)

yeah, I was like, this is so weird - and they talk lik....oh

Probably minimal modern ish, just needs to be simple, rather than fun :)

It's called video spy (at least for now), and I envisoned a little spy looking at microfiche...
But it looks bad, and worse when as a small icon (probably needs to be blocks rather than outlines) and just simpler :)

you mean libre265copilot?

still so much better than the old coroutines though!

the task implementation is so ropey in unity. not sure which thing is to blame, runtime or whether the tasks are part of the language, but there's so many little caveats, and bad syntax (awaiting a null for example)

Icon for a tool I want to release, where I will be surprised if I make a quid.

I have a drawing for an icon, but it's beyond awful

(for a little money, hobby project!)
