1. Subsidize code generation 90% so everyone forgets how to read/write code manually. 2. Now charge 10x - to ensure the generated code - that you largely can't understand - actually works. Donut and Dietician shop working out of same office.

the leaked minecraft console source code builds and runs! use visual studio 2012 in debug mode using the Windows64 config. also, you might need to remove references to the xbox sdks in the csproj files.

It's easy to feel imposter syndrome as a hacker when you don't find bugs, but remember this. You're looking for something that shouldn't even exist in the first place, and might not exist! It's a tough game!

There's a half of the Icarus myth no one tells. Daedalus gave his son Icarus two warnings: 1. Don't fly too close to the sun; the wax will melt. 2. Don't fly too close to the sea; the sea spray will weigh down the feathers. Everyone remembers the first. Hubris. Overreach. We tell that story all the time. The second warning has been completely forgotten. And I think it's the one we actually need. When I look at students now, I don't see kids flying too close to the sun. I see kids being held too close to the sea. An education system that doesn't challenge them. That keeps them low, keeps them comfortable, keeps them "safe". And slowly, without anyone noticing, the weight builds on their wings. The sea doesn't burn. That's what makes it so dangerous.

Rob Pike co-creator of Go, Unix veteran, and a pioneer of minimalist and high quality engineering reaction to that unsolicited AI spam or slop is 100% valid

time != skill

of course, this code is complete AI slop. Right off the bat, headers aren’t passed for POST/PUT/DELETE. Both the help and -v options flat out lie about what was sent. Literally half of the flags are no-ops. Oh, and it just silently drops authentication, so that’s fun. But somehow your “99 fuzz harnesses” didn’t catch that.

If you're not willing to challenge "the way it's always been done" and face public ridicule and embarrassment, then you're not willing to make things better. Doing new things is hard both because there are technical things that are hard but also hard because of the emotional side of things.
