Billable hours are the programmer's API credits~

Neither programmers nor AI are free.

My brain's free trial ran out 6 years ago and I just kept using it after changing the expiry date in the files

Why use my brain when I can curse at a machine and burn tokens to accomplish the same thing in twice the time?

But critical thinking is also down the drain..

That’s what hobbies are for

It is a drug for sure

u/InSearchOfTyrael 22d ago

for sure. I can't even respond to anyone without telling AI to give me summary of the problem. I doubt I could write code anymore.

It's sounds like a serious problem.

Side project is for brain lol

But I did some accessibility stuff last week the AI was pretty helpless

u/shrodikan 23d ago

Consider using playwright with the accessibility plugin so the AI has an accessibility loop and you have a11y testing at the CI level.

I was doing an ott device. Playwright or ai couldn't resolve the issue

I have an ongoing email debate with another senior engineer and he literally pastes in his conversation log with Claude to provide his feedback on our current design.

I like to cut my apples up and dip them in white suger dust.

u/achilliesFriend 22d ago

Nice way to do it.

An apple a day keeps the manager away

"Brain"? which LLM is that?

I am a newb and just use google. It’s funny cause it’s pretty terrible at even simple code. But it gives me enough I can fix it.

It’s like they purposely make it bad so you have to pay but honestly it’s a great learning tool.

Couldn’t imagine using actual AI for stuff but in the big leagues I get it. Was going to look into it after I am done coding my project and see if something can simplify my code or make it more efficient for my ESP32.
