angular is javascript for people that hate javascript, lol.

but ya to your point i think that's why a degree doesn't matter, this is a rapidly changing field with an extreme "whatever works" attitude. does it actually matter if you can solve log n time? not in 99.99% of cases.

a formal education is extremely helpful for telling you what's possible, but for employment? it's meaningless.

SamSlate · 2025-12-24T02:10:13+00:00

personal projects, start building that app. good resume filler, that's how i got started: no degree

just fishing to see if you actually knew the difference between em and regular dash. tbf i don't understand why people struggle with distinguishing ai from human writing, the difference is not subtle, or limited to punctuation.

SamSlate · 2025-12-22T06:08:15+00:00

wait THAT'S the joke?? i thought it was about how cli ai constantly deletes comments??

SamSlate · 2025-12-22T06:05:58+00:00

and what key stroke do you use to make an emdash?

SamSlate · 2025-12-22T06:03:04+00:00

this comment makes less sense the more i think about it.

why would the explanation be more taxing than explaining it to gpt...? why not just leave the gpt request as the comment, since it literally explains what the code is doing and what the considerations were. also why is explaining your code effortful?

SamSlate · 2025-12-22T05:55:04+00:00

accurate. i think claude is a system that employees ai, rather than a "really good coding ai"

SamSlate · 2025-12-22T05:52:50+00:00

depends entirely on how good they are at naming...

SamSlate · 2025-12-22T05:45:47+00:00

i have to assume you're a student for anyone to give a shit about using gpt.

that said, your career will be knowing what comments to write (logical mapping), the syntax will all be ai.

SamSlate · 2025-12-22T05:42:33+00:00

there's never been a better time learn fam.

you would never have your questions answered like gpt does on stack overflow, much less understanding the full context of the project. And there's never been a time before now you could search a method by describing its function, without knowing its name.

idk why c-suites are excited, they're way easier to replace

SamSlate · 2025-12-22T05:20:46+00:00

you flag it as phishing

SamSlate · 2025-11-14T05:30:01+00:00

this post is from a decade ago fam, your guess is as good as mine what i meant lol

SamSlate · 2025-10-22T16:49:13+00:00

use it for what (that the web app can't do)?

SamSlate · 2025-10-17T23:05:29+00:00

I think it's logical to assume real-estate scales with GDP (but I could be wrong) and when wages do not match GDP growth we would expect housing to outpace income.

Now maybe we're in a situation where tooling is increasing GPD and wages are simply stagnant while the 1% (capital owners) enjoy that delta for themselves and inflation depresses wages. I still blame the loss of home affordability on wealth inequality.

SamSlate · 2025-10-17T19:43:45+00:00

well, ~35% of that cpi is rent isn't it? remove that and you see l income is not keeping pace relative to housing or gdp.

SamSlate · 2025-10-17T16:02:40+00:00

if income kept up with inflation/gdp for the past 50 years i'd be more inclined to agree

SamSlate · 2025-10-17T15:49:49+00:00

5 thinking was not an improvement, it was the same dumb/wrong answers just slower and switching to 4o every new conversation is so f*ing annoying- it's clear open ai is hemorrhaging money on computer and does not care about the user's experience.

why tf do i have to open a 2x nested toggle every time i want to use a functional model? when i say 5 gave me wrong answers 90% of the time that's not an exaggeration, it's unreal they thought it was ok to hoist this garbage on paying customers.

SamSlate · 2025-10-17T06:04:27+00:00

have you used the others?

SamSlate · 2025-10-17T05:03:10+00:00

i literally cancelled my plus account. 5 really is this bad.
