<p>> if you do not allow yourself lazy once in a while, you are likely to get burnout<p>I'm not sure how using AI to generate songs will save anyone from the burnout of searching for songs, but what I understood from context is "intellectual laziness" and I see that as an insult. I'm not a native speaker though, so thanks for offering another perspective.</p>

<p>Composability (piping to other programs, or calling them via scripts), reachability (through ssh, for example), focus (not being distracted by all options being present) and universality (cli is more or less the same interface everywhere) are my reasons.<p>I still use GUI apps too, and actually find claude code to be closer to a GUI app than a cli.</p>

<p>> But even when I talk to people, they forward my questions to AI and send me the AI’s answer.<p>Those people obviously don't want to talk to you/"other people" or not interested in the topic you're talking about or both.<p>Find people who want to talk to you, and avoid spaces where this is less likely to happen.<p>Funny thing is, when this happened to me, I asked AI to give me ideas (because online I just couldn't find <i>people</i> to talk to except on HN) and the best idea it had was finding smaller/niche forums and real-world gatherings around me.<p>At least nowadays, when you see the person talking in real world, it's fairly easy to tell human from android.</p>

<p>I was deep in Vue 5-6 years ago, so much that I offered internal training for it and had sessions with more than 20 people attending.<p>IMHO, React wins because you can just treat templates as variables. You don't need "slots" or other special stuff. It's simply more composable.</p>

<p>Considering my use case (web apps), there already wasn't anything I couldn't do with Opus 4.5, the same will be true or were already true for more people in other releases, and at some point, which may have already passed, most people will stop finding qualitative leaps.<p>This doesn't always mean that there is a bottleneck in terms of raw power, it may also mean that your use cases (or the lower hanging fruits among them) are already covered.</p>

You people are gross.<p>I'm not saying you don't have a point. I didn't know enough to be sensitive on the Lena topic once either, and could have been the target of the above comment. So I think, perhaps, those could have been formulated more constructively.<p>However, I must say the same for your comment too. Can't we all be friends here? :)</p>

<p>If the constant meta changes (or other peculiarities involving those folders) make the sync unusable, then it can be both. In that case, you stop syncing and communicate.<p>So my idea is that it's a competency problem (lack of communication), not malice. But it's just a theory, based on my own experience.<p>In any case, this is a bad situation, however you look at it.</p>

<p>I think this should not be attributed to malice, however unfortunate. I had also developed some sync app once and onedrive folders were indeed problematic, causing cyclic updates on access and random metadata changes for no explicit reason.<p>Complete lack of communication (outside of release notes, which nobody really reads, as the article too states) is incompetence and indeed worrying.<p>Just show a red status bar that says "these folders will not be backed up anymore", why not?</p>

Last year, I had revived my old desktop from 2007 with an intel Q6600, windows xp and a clicky dying HDD, and that thing flied compared to this. Dear Microsoft and its partners (Especially DELL!), what the hell happened?!</p>
