I need a dedup that uses hash, no wait fuzzy logic, no wait fuzzy logic and hash and make the icons all look like giant dongs.

When I was younger I wanted this so I could type or write by dictation while walking, cause with ADHD thats the only time my brain works is when I'm moving, so I wanted to be able to do stuff and type or write while moving
And we built it, but now its for ai... π weird timeline
Itβs not even wireless
That "grindset & hustle" subculture can come to the point of selling burnout as virtue
Does no one else type faster than they talk?
Bigger question: who the fuck is bottlenecked by their typing speed?
You can't vibe code your way out of needing to know what to build, how it fits together with what you have, or the things that actually make the job tricky.
I think better standing and walking around. Voice notes have been a thing forever
I type slower than I talk, but partly because I'm usually thinking through what I'm typing and not as I'm talking
For me they are roughly on par with each other when accounting for stutter and autocorrect/ me being stupid and mixing up spelling styles. Regardless voice recognition software almost always shits the bed with my accent eventually since it gets thicker the longer I talk, it doesn't like my fucked up mix of American brogue, old arkansaner, and standard southern Californian even got a bit of German Minnesota mixed in.
I sometimes can type faster than I normally speak, but that depends on the keyboard (needs something without a membrane sensing apparatus (not rubber domes) for it to work), and I sometimes can type faster than I could think clearly, which can be detrimental to the quality of output. But hey, at a company, they could use it as a metric.
I type waaaaayyyyyy slower than I talk. And I talk waaaayyyy slower than I think. And I would definitely destroy any computer trying to keep up with my random and meaningless thoughts.
Three major updates before the coffee's done brewing brings to mind a team scrambling to fix a fuck up, fucking up even more, then scrambling to fix that on top of the original fuck up.
Well yeah, those three fuckups were the three major updates. Its all about speed with these lunatics
My cortisol!
This has to be a shitpost, right?
Ragebait is the new Viral Marketing
It's linkedin, it's a 50/50 chance of being a shitpost/serious ad for the stupid shit
Featuring the developer's thinly-disguised fetish.
Why do these people think they will be the employable ones? If AI is so smart, why would I need an expensive employee to prompt it, who hasn't done anything but prompt AI for years and thus has proven that he is unable to do the work himself?
If I buy into their psychosis that this thing is going to automate away actual people, surely it follows that it's going to reach a point where the CEO just prompts his AI agents in the morning and leaves to play golf, no need for employees at all.
That's the mask for huffing copium, while not only AI actually pulling them back, but also turned their quadruple nine uptime into 80% on a good day, made the code harder to debug, and having to stay in for unpaid overtime to compensate for the mess firing half the team caused.
Okay, so the guy in the foreground has the mask (the thing that's supposed to replace keyboards) and is using a mouse with his left hand. What's that thing next to his left thumb? Is that a keyboard? It looks like a keyboard. Doesn't it undermine the claim about replacing keyboards if the picture you use has the guy sitting with a keyboard?
I can't think of anything I'd want less. I use speech-to-text for one and a half things: telling my partner that I'm beginning to drive home and I used to set timers but don't anymore. Formatting code would be impossibly unproductive.
Can't wear a ball gag underneath. 0/10.
Now it's already 100x developer?
without junior dev hearing...
Why would we ever want coworkers to understand our work? I bet they document in 0 wpm.
"Verbally shipped 3 updates"
=> telling the thing to upload said update instead of clicking it.
Wow very impressive.
Much technology, such update
shipped three major updates
Aside from what's obviously wrong with that from a technical point of view...as a user I loathe this shit. Like, you think I love it, if your shitty software is nagging me every three hours to update?
they're counting each OS release as a separate update
