Our leader wrote himself a great prompt to fill up Tickets in jira with useless text too and our boss is happy like if he won the lottery. Now instead of ugly but short useful texts now i have yo read a fucking eassay!!!
You were supposed to feed it back into the lying machine to dustill the content from the vapor, not read it. You are not AI native worker and should be kicked out of the otherwise great performing team
No you don't. Feed the essay to Claude and ask it to summarize it for you, or just use the Jira MCP and have Claude or codex take the ticket, use the GitHub MCP to get it the source, have it go work on the ticket, have it generate the code, generate some unit tests, then you go literally yell at your computer using Wispr Flow or some other transcription software to tell Claude how to fix the mess it made, and then you after you've cleaned it up, you submit the PR.
When ChatGPT first came out three years ago, we joked about Devin and having an AI coworker, but I was just given 5 tickets to work on before break, and damned if AI didn't take a well scoped ticket and just did it before I even finished reading that very tightly scoped ticket.
While I personally find that generative AI has helped me be more productive and even boosted my ability to learn things, I really _dislike_ that we’ve normalized this behavior:
Whether a Jira ticket, an email, a yearly review, we feed bullet points into a black box to get a bunch of fluffy text. On the other end, we feed the fluffy text into the black box to get bullet points.
We’re killing penguins because we’re somehow afraid to just send the simplified bullet points to each other in the first place.
I'm weird, this opinion Is even weirder, but how about start removing what makes Python slow? Sometimes you need yo remove features. It's hard, a pain but i dont see any other way of fixing really big mistakes...
I'm tired and bored yo remove eval from codecamp and ai agent code. Now every fucking sprint has a few jira shit cards with titles like "fix the bug introduced by ai, fix performance issue from bootcampers. This is not what i became a code monkey for. Get me out of programming!!! This current time driven development mixed with fix the above shit Is making me crazy
Wait, i wouldnt hire someone who is ok spending so many hours after the first few hours, it shows me that he or ave can't handle the sunk cost trap and will fall again and again. But ok, that's my wr9ng opinion about this
Manwhile i live in a rural area 10kms away of a little town in the south of Chile with FTTH with 1gbit symetrical with Static ip address really unlimited (no CAP of anytype) with one deco for my tv for 24 usd a month with an installation that cost me 30 usd. Should i add i hace to use rainwater because no potable wáter Is available?
Same here (except Chile). It's weird/sad/expected because of Comcast & others that the US are still not reliably connected everywhere. From the country that brought us the internet!?
In my (European) country, you have to live in a swamp far away from everything to not have FTTH legibility, in the same ballpark prices as the comment above.
Static IP as a (free) opt-in.
That explains why you can't get decent service in rural Montana, but not in San Francisco! The best fiber services around (other than Google) tends to be the municipal ones that don't give one of the big operators space to pull their bullshit though.
