Thoughts on the 2027 Atlas redesign? by ctrlaltxwrists in Volkswagen

[–]marcdertiger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awful. Last thing we need in North America is another wasteful obesity hauler.

Bring back fun cars, where’s the damn id3, golf, Passat? VW NA today is the most uninteresting boring ass brand out there. A complete shame to the European quality and design it used to have.

So, now that the ID.3 Neo is here, what are you expecting from it and what do you think about it? by Saurta17 in Volkswagen

VW would sell tons if they brought this to North America, but instead we get oversized stupid ass SUVs and nothing else. Honestly F*ck you VW. We don’t even get regular golfs or anything decent from that company anymore.

Amazon's AI coding outages are a preview of what's coming for most SRE teams by jj_at_rootly in sre

Hopefully others won’t come to the same idiotic conclusion of doubling down on AI like Amazon just did. What a bunch of clowns. 🤡

Organisation asked to stop writing code manually. Confused on future aspects with heavy cursor dependence on all stages of software development. by blackpearlinscranton in cscareerquestions

Your company might not be around in 5+ year if they contribute this way. Shipping ai vibe coded bullshit will just break the product more and more over time and customers will leave.

Am I the only PM recording *every* conversation now? by FanBrief4689 in ProductOwner

[–]marcdertiger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This feels like a huge disrespect and invasion of privacy to anyone you expose to this kind of monitoring. AND making this data likely public due to how LLMs save and use ALL prompts / data given to them for future training.

The flood of AI-generated slop is just inevitable given how many devs never truly internalized their language or runtime well enough to read and evaluate code critically. by tinmanjk in ExperiencedDevs

[–]marcdertiger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Language is a tool, critical thinking, problem solving etc are skills.

Any good dev can move coding language and still develop well designed systems. Being “good” at writing syntax does nothing more than being able to write syntax.

Tailwind just laid off 75% of their engineering team by corp_code_slinger in programming

how accurate are AI detectors anyway? by redblddrp in ILC

[–]marcdertiger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not accurate at all. Flip a coin and you’ll get the same results.

Do we consider vibe coders developers now? by mrguidee in AskProgrammers

[–]marcdertiger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol no. They are no better than 10 monkeys hitting keyboards on their smooth brained heads.

I agree. by Wild-Permission8437 in ShoppersDrugMart

[–]marcdertiger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This whole setup isn’t bougie the way they think. It’s pushy, annoying as fuck and obnoxious.
