And nothing of value was lost.
Well it's going to put a damper on my Ansible "coding".
You think I want to properly learn that piece of junk? It was obsolete and archaic before it was released, and it survives on naivete and churn cost and nothing else. There is no part of my time doing yaml for Ansible that I want to actually retain or build on, and without chatGPT to slop-in the changes I need to make, I may be forced to do it myself. And I lack the crayons now and alcohol for after.
Actually subjecting my brain to Ansible directly in real-time is a horror. It is just so fucking lame compared to everything else -- it even pales compared to the DevOps we were doing in 2002 before it was even called that. Let my have my robots to slop the Ansible and save my sanity !
Ok, yaml is fair game for a LLM. Whitespace sensitive language should die in a fire, markup or otherwise.
Why do you say that?
Because whitespace sensitivity makes it very easy to make a whole bunch of annoying mistakes when shuffling code around, or copying it from one source to another (from text in one application to the editor in your ide for example). I find it supremely unpleasant to work with. Looking kinda a little bit slightly messed up should not be a critical syntax error that breaks the whole code.
Hahahah scripting in my HA atm, feeling this so hard.
I agree. I think ansible is great in principle, but the documentation is severely lacking. Like it'll tell you to set a value, but not whether it's supposed to be in yaml, environment, or something else. And if it's in yaml, it doesn't tell you the required context to make it valid. But when someone has taken all the documentation, all the tutorials, the articles, the example code, working code, and stack overflow answers and put them all into a blender, often a useful answer comes out.
You were a liability
seriously! i used to use chatgpt all the damn time but then i got into claude and gemini. they are WAY better for code. now i got cursor pro and i use that for all my shit because it's got the AI agents, the browser, the code editor, and the terminal
What's it like working in a field where you are completely incompetent?
i don't work in the field. it's a hobby. i'm a speech language pathologist. i have degrees from northestern university and UT austin
are you some kid in your parent's basement?
Welcome to Lemmy, where everything is wrongthink.
pretty much yeah, lmao.....STILL, i will do my best to be nice to everyone here, despite our many differences, because i'm so fucking sick of getting banned from everywhere. i racked up so many minor reddit infractions that i can't even make a new account now. it is seriously the internet equivalent of getting a life sentence for three speeding tickets. fucking three strikes rule is so fucking stupid
If this your best, I can see why you're banned on Reddit. This is the one time where their algorithms are right.
You're a toxic person and are completely oblivious to it.
You need to go move into mommy's basement until you've learned how to play nice with others.
honestly the people on both reddit and lemmy world are bad for my mental health. last month i had a relapse and reddit tried to gaslight me into thinking i was in the middle of a psychotic break. i was just high, ffs
Bright side of Lemmy, you can say fuck. Downsides include, death of nuance, dogpiling, herd behavior and people who try to take down others.
FUCK
why did you say use it to do coding, when you are not a programmer but a speech pathlogist, you seemed pretty deficient in that area if i might add if you are wholely dependent on chat gpt
what's your native language?
What's it like being an amateur that is so clueless you actually think you have any capacity to analyze what is good, better, best for coding?
what's it like being a gpt 3.5 instance run out of a server in mumbai
You might be hindering yourself.
Developers took 19% longer to finish tasks using AI tools - https://www.techspot.com/news/108651-experienced-developers-working-ai-tools-take-longer-complete.html
most developers don't know how to use AI. you don't know to use AI. no one here does. I do.
I'm not even into tech whatsoever, and find you insufferable.
i've reviewed your comment history. you're not a human. you're not even a gpt 3.5 instance. i'm not sure what you are but you're ancient
Account age 19 hours and already behaving like an ass. Congratulations and welcome to Lemmy, a place with actual communities where you can expect to be blocked if you carry on like that. Please learn to treat people better!
how's that LLM-induced psychosis going?
i just got out of a manic episode. i was nuts and i said some very mean things to my family, but we're backl to being on good terms now.
it wasn't caused my LLMs it was caused by drugs (delta 8 THC, alcohol relapse (i'm a recovering alcoholic, used to drink 12-18 every night) also 7OH and adderall and ummmmmm
I think that's it. Look, being bipolar makes you love drugs. But I'm sober now
Oh I get that, being AuDHD I got issues with different kinds of addiction, right now I just eat a lot and smoke a lot of weed.
Hope you finish recovering soon but I'm gonna be honest with you, drugs are not the only thing you can be addicted to and delegating research/tasks to a LLM can be addicting
right now i'm addicted to fucking my computer
i mean
i'm addicted to my fucking computer
i'm still a recovering substance addict. basically alcohol and pot, but i also mixed in some other shit like addies and 7OH from time to time. i feel comfortable talking about all that shit because i'm sober now
Do less drugs.
I've been sober since my TBI three years ago
That's hilarious. Everyone thinks they're some kind of savant while using LLMs. The reality is quite different
AI is a useful tool, but people who misuse it, primarily due to overreliance, end up creating more work than AI is solving
You're just projecting your own failures with AI onto me. It is really sad that you are not good at talking to a computer in English
