<p>100% agree with this.<p>I have years of experience, but I never had the time (or will) to take on some _very minor nuisances_ or different areas of dev far from my day job expertise.<p>LLMs solved this. I produced about 12 different things that "I needed" to improve aspects of my life.<p>Each single took between a few hours to 3 days, and most of them I use daily, they are the most used applications (mobile, desktop and web) for my family.<p>It is a game changer.<p>Personalized custom software would never really reach critical mass, LLM enabled it, this is the age of personalized software, egosoftware, llmware.</p>

<p>The group that insists on keeping a community or software project 'non-political' often fails to recognize that this stance is itself a political position. They claim to want a neutral space, but what they really mean is that the existing political view does not align with their own. By dismissing other perspectives as 'political' while treating their own as neutral, they end up being both hypocritical and unwilling (or unable) to acknowledge that their opinions are political too.</p>

<p>yes, that is a very usual way (known practices) of vendors applying specific optimizations for known things.<p>It is also part of the benchmarks game they play against each other.</p>

<p>You're wrong, obedient people are exactly the type that don't need unions, they are obedient and accept anything.<p>Unions are for people that don't accept anything and know that they are a target  taking action alone or in non organized ways.<p>Unions are the way to multiply the forces and work as a group with common interests, it is for people that are not extremely selfish and egocentric.</p>

<p>In practice, it is not what happens. I've been doing AI assisted Rust for some time, and it is very convincing that this is the way. I expect 6mo to 1y to be basically fully automated.<p>Rust has tons of code out there, and quality code. Different from js or Python that has an abundance of low quality to pure garbage code.</p>

<p>> In computer vision, there has been a similar pattern. Early methods conceived of vision as searching for edges, or generalized cylinders, or in terms of SIFT features. But today all this is discarded.Modern deep-learning neural networks use only the notions of convolution and certain kinds of invariances, and perform much better.<p>I was there, at that moment where pattern matching for vision started to die.
That was not completely lost though, learning from that time is still useful on other places today.</p>
