How are they drinking the coffee if they have the masks on to work?

good luck with things like :(){:|:};:

[–] filcuk@feddit.uk 14 points 1 hour ago

You think these people code?

[–] qarbone@lemmy.world 13 points 3 hours ago

They both...have keyboards.

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.

Does no one else type faster than they talk?

[–] ricecake@sh.itjust.works 20 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

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.

[–] chuckleslord@lemmy.world 10 points 2 hours ago

You forget that I can now describe the code I want faster than I can write it. Frankly it's irrelevant if the code at the end doesn't do what I want or that I don't know what it does. The speed, baby. Never before could I push this much code this fast. 200+ new bugs a day, four times as fast as I used to be pushing features. The code base is worse than it's ever been and it's only going to get faster from here. This is the future, baby - the vibe coder

I type slower than I talk, but partly because I'm usually thinking through what I'm typing and not as I'm talking

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 3 hours ago

I’m usually thinking

Well there's your problem. No need to bother with that anymore.

I think better standing and walking around. Voice notes have been a thing forever

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 4 points 5 hours ago

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.

[–] Bluewing@lemmy.world 3 points 5 hours ago

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.

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... 😅 weird timeline

[–] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

That's actually a cool idea.

Your heart is cool

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.

[–] greasewizard@slrpnk.net 3 points 4 hours ago

Well yeah, those three fuckups were the three major updates. Its all about speed with these lunatics

That "grindset & hustle" subculture can come to the point of selling burnout as virtue

[–] Tattorack@lemmy.world 9 points 5 hours ago (2 children)

This has to be a shitpost, right?

It's linkedin, it's a 50/50 chance of being a shitpost/serious ad for the stupid shit

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.

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?

Featuring the developer's thinly-disguised fetish.

"Verbally shipped 3 updates"

=> telling the thing to upload said update instead of clicking it.

Wow very impressive.

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 5 points 5 hours ago

Much technology, such update

Can't wear a ball gag underneath. 0/10.

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.

Formatting code

Formatting... code? Nowadays you only need a vague prompt with typos

[–] figjam@midwest.social 8 points 7 hours ago

without junior dev hearing...

Why would we ever want coworkers to understand our work? I bet they document in 0 wpm.
