@catavz@mastodon.social avatar

@nixCraft I first used it years ago with a Knoppix live CD and it was very cool. Later, Nova Launcher on Android offered the same experience.

A COBOL programmer, tired of the bug chaos in the legacy codebase, decides to have themselves cryogenically frozen to skip the whole mess. Years later, they're thawed out.

"Did I sleep through?" they ask.

"It's the year 9999," the scientists replied, "And we need you to fix some legacy code from 2000, which is still in production ."

@nixCraft The programmer in question started working.

Why is nobody working on replacing upper management with AI? Let’s start from the top. Oh wait

catavz,

@nixCraft Maybe there is no need for intelligence (even artificial) in upper management.😋

Programming languages are tools. Just like a hammer doesn't automatically make you a great carpenter, simply knowing Rust or C++ or Go or any other lang won't instantly make you a better developer. I am just saying

catavz,

@nixCraft Yes, talent and desire are two prerequisites you need to provide before that.

Question! Why should local governments use taxpayers’ money to buy proprietary, closed software from a single vendor? And what happens to citizens' data? A solution is to move to free and open source software like and – which is exactly what Schleswig-Holstein is doing: https://blog.documentfoundation.org/blog/2024/04/04/german-state-moving-30000-pcs-to-libreoffice/

Modern software development be like: I wrote 10 lines of code to call an API that calls another API, which calls yet another API that finally turns on a lightbulb. Pray that Cloudflare or AWS will not be down during this operation; otherwise, there will be no light for you.

@nixCraft There are now many AI options that work locally. And they are becoming more and more skilled. The playing field is expanding. But GIGO is always valid. 😉
