<p>What I find the most amusing is ... "AI code is crap".
I think I heard enough time "this codebase is shit, we need a full rewrite" to know that no one agrees what is quality code.<p>Suddenly, everyone are expert writing the most elegant, clean and without bug code.</p>

<p>I don't live in the US, I live in Switzerland, and what happens in the US and Iran affects the world.
And when I see this kind of shit <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EJ58s4bwzG0" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EJ58s4bwzG0</a> ( bbc  Donald Trump dons 'Trump 2028' hat and jokes about 'fourth term'  ), I am like, what the fuck? 
Europeans as a whole didn't have much a great opinions of republicans but I don't even understand how a republican voter can vote for a russian asset who is using the constitution as toilet paper. At this stage, just turn directly to a fascist state and stop pretending.</p>

<p>You were correct — it did brick the probe.<p>I misunderstood “no fucking way to deploy” as “don’t push it to preprod,” and figured only a live test would give us a definitive answer.<p>That one’s on me. I owe you an apology.<p>On the bright side, Voyager 2 died so Voyager 3 could be future-proof.</p>

<p>AI is an accelerate tool for any organizations, management thinks it'll solve their organization issue because it accelerates it. Most often, it accelerates toward a wall.<p>Design is too expensive, we do agile.
QA too expensive, we fire all of them, and claim devops is the now, which allows us to fire the Ops team too, 100% ownership from deisng to ops on devs.<p>One person with an agent can replace all these teams. Yeah mo profits.</p>

<p>Depending of the thickness, but all you need is to take out your steak for 30min before hand to 1h, really hot pan, 2min on each side and voila.
That will get you there 90% of the time.
We do something similar to T-bone or beef ribs, but finish them in the oven.<p>Most people or even restaurant don't let their meat outside nor use an actual hot pan.</p>

<p>Considering the state of the field ( RAG/retrieval/evaluation) I have 0 trust in it, even more if it's closed source with bullshit claim like that.<p>Everything is vibe sloped to death, and dead after a few months to a couple of years (and not hard to be 100 cheaper than GPT-5.6 sol ... DS is basically free and I guess already 100 times cheaper or more, and here another slope ).</p>
