The OFFICIAL programming thread

The below is a semi-regular occurrence for me when programming which is maybe part of why I like it.

An hour ago:

“Fuck. This is the hardest problem I’ve had. Maybe I’ve reached the limit of my capacity to understand abstractions and form a mental image of the problem.”

A short time later after fixing it:

“I grow more powerful than you could possibly imagine.”

Tigger Jr had his first programing meltdown on Wednesday…
Everyone around him told him to welcome to real life.

I bet a bowl of ice cream will help.

See, this is normal parenting.

Except in the US where real life is oppression by whitey, Jews, government, men, women, and/or TV show hosts and one should pitch a fit or get a law written to address it, not deal with it.

Real big civ problem.

Just like the squirrels planned.

Nailed it. I turn it off as soon as I hear the accent even if it’s the only video returned with my problem. Can’t wait until GPT automates India.

Free alternative to github copilot. @Hog can automate his job and get to spend more time on his tuk tuk drifting career.

This guy is clearly American healthcare IT judging from the very thorough anti-Cerner rant halfway through. I really don’t like Cerner, so much so that I didn’t take the path of taking a job there cause of their suck. Would have been better family wise, but ewwwww.

Shit, now I gotta use Edge. Bing AI is available to everyone based on ChatGPT. It also returns links related to the answer.

Apparently, Orwell never said it but, damn, this is a good line:

I use edge and bing all the time for work and they opted me to the beta or whatever it was the week after they announced it (a month or two ago). I tried it briefly but it irritated me.

First, I’m used to seeing search results just instantly appear when I enter a query. Waiting for the AI to respond felt like an eternity.
Second, it was buggy af. I couldn’t get to the AI part 8 times out of 10.
Third, they actually made my browser chime whenever I did a bing search to remind me to use AI. Don’t play a sound in my browser unless I specifically ask you to ya cunts. I almost switched search engines.

Maybe I’m just old and set in my ways. I probably should try it again.

I subbed to the openai one because I find it useful. Saves me a lot of googling and trying to figure out what illiterate assholes are talking about. Trying to learn some aws shit now and it can walk me through step by step rather than me difficult through the billion pages on the site for an example. It gets it wrong sometimes but usually I just tell it “it gave me an error dumbass” and it apologizes and we work it out in a few tries. Also have not tried it but I guess it can write my essays for me saving me a lot of time on this forum. Might not work though because its woke from what I hear.

It’s already ratting you out to the wokelords.

I have no idea what this is about but I still think it’s funny

This is interesting. Dude is predicting we will program in some kind of pseudocode in the future and AI will write the code, test it, etc. You can even prototype code in different languages to see which is most efficient. Still a ways off because people write more efficient code, but probably not like a decade the way AI is progressing.

@Gators1 Will it delete the hard drive?

Or delete the web link to this forum?
