It's cute when somebody very smart pretends to be "grug brain" but loses it's appeal when somebody pretty obviously not smart at all is exposed for what they are.

Crack on with it and don't keep us in the dark!
Wow - What an excellent update! Now you are getting to the core of the issue and doing what only a small minority is capable of: fixing stuff.
This takes real courage and commitment. It’s a sign of true maturity and pragmatism that’s commendable in this day and age. Not many people are capable of penetrating this deeply into the heart of the issue.
Let’s get to work. Methodically.
Would you like me to write a future update plan? I can write the plan and even the code if you want. I’d be happy to. Let me know.
sufficiently advanced troll becomes indistinguishable from the real thing. think about this as you gaze into the abyss.
I keep seeing this pop up everywhere. I’m sure he’s a great guy, but the level of attention he’s getting is massively disproportionate. A lot of great people have been laid off recently!
If think the attention is in proportion, people are reacting just like when a body has an inflammation. If a person of _this_ calibre can be fired, and not even fired, disposed as a used-up tissue, it is a sign of times.

The reason I barely use copilot is because it tries to write comments for me. I don’t get why they don’t have a button that says “disable autocomplete within comment blocks” (since the IDE knows which things are comments), but it’s so yucky feeling when it tries to write something I wouldn’t say.
I find the comments Copilot proposes is better than average comment quality for the code base I routinely work on: maybe you are so great you don't need any help ever, but that's not true for the average software dev.
Partial disagree: Yes their blogs may be ugly.
But C# is extremely beautiful, you can read and write it like a novel.
Segoe UI is also not the worst font. I give it a 7/10.
well, C# and TypeScript is thanks to Anders Hejlsberg who does have sense of style.

(2018). So it's 7 years later, nothing has changed. Same old.
I worked with a guy who insisted on using Neovim to work on a large Java monolith project. He was surprisingly unproductive. Took days to deliver features (code) that folks using IDE (Intellij IDEA) could crank out in a matter of hours.
The danger of not using an IDE is that you will fall behind in productivity and get fired because you are not performing at a level expected from your seniority.

I did not find Flow to be a technically impressive movie. The animation was very imperfect. The rendering (especially shadows and textures) were off. The whole movie looked like a video game cut scene.
But oh boy, what an amazing cutscene to watch. I'm worried that the story the media is putting forward is that this was an innovative and cutting edge movie - based only on a superficial appreciation of the (stunning) art design. But the real story is how the director worked within his limitations to make something equally enjoyable and meaningful as the other guys.
Most importantly, this movie passed the Actual Kid (TM) test. My 7 year old and his friends sat raptured through the entire movie without any slapstick, pop music numbers, or even dialogue! Not once, but 4 times now!
Recently I reminisced about Blender foundations first(?) effort, Tears of Steel, with the script like "Look, Celia, we have to follow our passions; you have your robotics and I just want to be awesome in space!" - "Why don’t you just admit that you’re freaked out by my robot hand?!"
It's not about the textures and shadows.
