Hard for me to take seriously a society addicted to destroying the planet through high tech hasn't already lost critical thinking and lives with high cognitive debt
Role playing we're all that smart while our economic behavior (I mean resource use not financial) suggests the opposite is really making me question the idea keeping electrical activity in the brain up is a sign of intelligence
Making life better for ourselves just going to make it worse for everyone eventually.
Having language to describe physics does not mean we control physics now. Entropy doesn't give a shit; we are its agents on Earth. Humans will destroy the structure of a human friendly environment. The only choice we have is 50-100 years or 1,000 based on how fast we consume it
You don't buy the article's position but have forgotten a lot and not known a lot; so no need to care about your opinion I guess
This is my beef with modern software engineers; complete detachment from physical reality where entropy is eroding structure (memory, generational churn).
Code is just a euphemism for a desired electrical state. No need to dump biz contexts in code. Just make a game engine that efficiently handles geometry on screen and label the presentation layer.
All ya'll are doing is recreating front end rendering technology, forgetting in time and recreating it in new semantics. It's absolutely fucking asinine.
I look forward to models in chips and a tiny universal code base coupled to the machine.
This whole allowing a bunch of unelected rhetoricians tell myself and other hardware engineers we need them to use our property is exhausting.
It's rhetorical nonsense that goes in these broad loops recreating old work.
Time to move on from what titillated you all as children. Or you will just end up entitled Boomers.
Writing code like its 1970s is not high tech. It's old low tech
I often find that what is considered easy in programming is actually hard, and what is considered hard is actually easy, because the "easy" things are designed to have several layers of Rube Goldberg machines between me and what is actually going on.
This is either incredibly advanced, genius-level insight into the future of software engineering, or absolutely nonsensical gibberish. I'm not smart enough to tell which, I suppose we'll find out.
