Agreed. Watch for a rise in cases of early onset dementia over the next few decades.

More nonsense buzzword soup de jour. Can I play along at home? How about Vibewatermaxxing? Surely in the new age it should catch on.

This industry is just getting more and more bonkers.

Is anyone tired of being told what AI is supposed to mean for the individual? As a software guy it's supposed to mean I am now a team lead of sorts. However all the people I see crowing about this never sought to become team leads in their career, nor did I.

Yet now suddenly everyone is supposed to want to become a team lead of sorts (ie. the agents becoming your team). I don't want to do that, I treat an AI agent as a pair in a pair programming unit. Nothing more, nothing less. If someone wants to treat it differently, good on them, but they have no place telling what works for thee works for me.

Not all tasks require a frontier model

This should be a warning to those who feel that it's ok to offload your creativity to a subscription service. Always need a local model in some form.

I find this pretty interesting. I am curious though: Did you dislike coding? You sound genuinely excited to not be doing it anymore.

For me I have been a coder since a very young age and I am nearing the end of my career now. I still love writing code to problem solve just as much as the first day I learnt to code. The thought of something taking that task away from me doesn't fill me with glee.

A parallel for me is if I enjoyed puzzle pages and those brought me with joy and satisfaction employing my grey matter to solve, I just wouldn't find it interesting to have an agent complete the forms to me, with me simply guiding the agent to clues.

Hopefully this can work on PS2-based Namco System 246 systems, would be amazing if it can.

So you are saying what is listed there currently doesn't warrant that reputation?

Between this and a growing number of oems not permitting bootloader unlocking (latest being Samsung with OneUI 8) Android's "open" future is pretty bleak.

This is brilliant. I happily bought it due to how nice and well thought out this is as well as the fascinating write up. I actually see a lot of legitimate situations for when an idea pops in my head and I want to quickly try it out when I only have my phone on me. I tried the egui sample and get a link error but will look more closely at why. One initial thought i would have is to make the swipe down to dismiss terminal gesture less aggressive as one often needs to scroll back the build output a fair bit.

Nice there were a few years early on where progressed seemed really slow but they are delivering so many great products now.
