> They're also extraordinarily good engineers so idk wtf is going on in Uganda.
Uganda has no respect for talent. When I was there it looked like most people are just trying to survive the next day, tbh. Because there is no platform to develop their talent. Also Uganda seems to be more focused on agriculture so it gets more incentives than other industries.
But you're right about the talented part, there are a lot of good engineers there but lack the opportunity. Remember meeting one who worked at Boeing in Missouri and he even had a few patents in the aerospace domain.
Yes, to some extent because AI only assisted the developer achieve their goal.
But the developer is clearly talented, no doubt about that. They know their stuff very well. Having tried writing a text editor myself, I could quickly tell they know their stuff by analysing the program design
i REALLY love this thing, especially the efficiency and speed (phenomenal!). gonna start using it daily. i guess i will be one of those providing feedback.
I also believe the difference between expert level and amateur programmers will be a lot easier to spot. Especially around the software or system architecture
Due to the inherent GIGO behavior of any software, it'll be a lot easier to tell that the code or software wasn't written by someone with deep knowledge since LLMs' output is just a good reflection of your prompts and creativity while at it(prompting).
For instance, a prompt from Ken Thompson can't be exactly similar to your average Joe programmer. I've seen it a lot with most new open-source projects nowadays.
Lydia is very good at presenting complex ideas simply and well. I've read and watched most of her work or videos. She really goes to great lengths in her work to make it come to life. Highly recommend her articles and YouTube videos.
Though she's been writing less I think due to her current job
