@susankayequinn@wandering.shop @ireneista@adhd.irenes.space Completely agreed. Framing the argument that way is a tool to squash alternative visions. https://tomrenner.com/posts/llm-inevitabilism/

@spiralganglion@merveilles.town I watch the work of my kin, bold and boyful/ Toying somewhere between love and abuse” Hozier isn’t my kind of music (I’m a rap fan, very different kind of lyrics!), but he is certainly my kind of lyricist

@spiralganglion@merveilles.town or, perhaps cheating, Gil Scott-Heron: flying through the valley separating day and night "I am death!" cried the vulture. "For the people of the light." Charon brought his raft from the sea that sails on souls And saw the scavenger departing, taking warm hearts to the cold gives me absolute chills.

@spiralganglion@merveilles.town Could start down the “is he a poet, does that count?” line, but I’m a firm believer that all good rappers are poets, so for me the point is moot

@sue I get much more value in my day-to-day development from tools like DeepWiki than I do from Claude or Copilot. Summarising large complex codebases is more useful to me than generating functions faster and faster without deep understanding.

@NicolasRinaudo@functional.cafe it's a tooling problem I think. Many IDEs will auto-import if you use 'Config', and if you have multiple options across namespaces it's easy to get the wrong one. Redundant naming solves this, but is ugly.
