Is software engineering dead?
>The consensus is a resounding yes, the job has completely changed, mostly for the better. Devs are shifting from being code writers to being AI managers or "agent managers."
>The most common workflow involves running multiple Claude sessions simultaneously, like a team of junior devs. You spend the start of your day crafting high-level prompts for your tasks, and then the rest of the day is spent reviewing, testing, and integrating the AI-generated code. This confirms OP's feeling of being "differently busy." While actual keyboard time for coding is way down, time spent on planning, prompt engineering, and especially code reviews is way up.
>The payoff is huge. Many report finishing a day's or even a week's worth of tasks by noon, freeing up time for higher-level strategic thinking, planning the next day's work, or just enjoying more free time. However, you still have to be the senior engineer in the room; the AI can be confidently wrong, use outdated libraries, or get lazy, so manual oversight is critical.
>Pro-tips from the thread: * Go hands-free: Many are ditching typing for voice-to-text tools like Whispr Flow or Superwhisper to dictate prompts, citing typing as the new bottleneck. * Stop the sycophant: To get Claude to challenge your ideas, give it a strong persona in the system prompt, like "You are an elite Staff Software Engineer who pushes back on bad ideas." * Work in parallel: Use git worktrees to manage multiple AI-driven tasks on the same repo at once.

My problem with lua's syntax is that the nonuniformity of the various block open and close delimiters makes it harder to write tools to manipulate its code. For instance, I use a hotkey ctrl-[ to insert a `{}` pair around my cursor, but something like that wouldn't work in lua because for functions you don't have an opener but have `end` as a closer; for `if` blocks you use `then ... end`; for loops you use `do ... end`; etc

This is why one reason I prefer lispy syntax. BUT >>107658987 unfortunately isn't a replacement for lua's syntax because the ideologue who made fennel decided that early returns are a bad thing and so you can't easily do early returns in fennel (despite there being no technical reason why not)

I get why people like the english word block delimiters. But I find that when you work for a long time (100+ hours; which actually isn't that long given how long big projects take) in a programming language, all of its syntax is abstracted away in your brain, and the syntax doesn't really matter, at least aesthetically (it still affects your ability to quickly identify things, how fast it takes to type things, etc)

The correct nomenclature is "kike". Look up how that word came about; understand how deeply they hate all that which we represent, all that we are, our essence. Understand just how much they despise us. Look up the alternative plus sign; see how deep their vitriol runs.

And say it; say it aloud and say it clear, say it loud and proud: I fucking hate kikes, a million times as much as they hate me.

Why are ""people"" (gamers) still so anti-VA? Modern VA panels have absurdly fast response times on par with IPS (faster actually except for black to black). On the plus side you get the blackest blacks, whitest whites and no backglow messing up everything.

I understand OLED is superior to both and TN is the competitive choice but it's weird seeing how many people still tell each other to steer clear of VA when your average $200 VA panel is almost certainly better than a $200 IPS one.

I once tried to learn C++ but so many things just sucked:
The syntax, headder files, 1000 ways to do the same thing, the ((meta-)meta-) "build" system(s) and overall the feeling of the language:
It is like someone had continuously updated his hobby project without concerning other users.

I want to learn a modern language instead and chose Zig out of Rust or Zig as Rust seemed gay-coded to me.
Is it a good decision to learn Zig? Will Zig stay?

i'm also a defacto secretary and part of my job is forwarding nato-formatted messages to the people who need to read them, and it's just an accepted part of the job that they come in mangled and it's a pain in the ass to clean them up. weird line break placement because of maximum string length, lack of line breaks because of cr vs crlf type shit, that sort of thing. not that the average operator seems to care about or even understand that, but either way, it's a pain in the ass

on one ship I was working on, as ISA, they happened to like having those messages also saved onto the shared drive (because apparently outlook isn't enough) but happened to enjoy having them as plaintext

I wrote a powershell script to just rename the files like they wanted done manually. it wouldn't touch the contents, I still did that by hand because honestly there were too many stupid edge cases to deal with that checking a script's work would be equal to doing it myself in the first place. but it would at least draw the necessary info to rename the files properly and make a very basic attempt at formatting the (plaintext, human-readable) header properly.

Every senior who saw it told me to stop doing that kind of thing. I got multiple bad performance reviews across several parachuted-in(figurative) bosses for working on it. The script's failure state was "give up and retain the original name", it didn't touch the actual text within, and everything came in through outlook (or radio teletype) anyway and thus had a reasonable local very immediate backup.

Even if a future boss says it's ok, even if the forces as a whole adopts a new platform that just does that itself, I will fucking die mad about it ever not having been ok.

As someone who lives in Ireland, in a country which is known as a safe haven for transnational companies what is the point of these tech companies like Meta, Google and IBM coming over here just to hire indians who haven't lived for 1 second in the country? Aren't these companies supposed to offer jobs to the people who were actually born and live here? Why don't they go to fucking india if they want to fucking hire indians? Why is it full of fucking foreigners in these companies and get interviewed by foreigners? What tf are these companies doing here if they're only hiring fucking foreigners. God I hate immigration and globalism so badly. Fucking hate how liberal the Irish people are and how the only political parties here are all liberal. There's not a single immigration restrictionist party here and in reality we need mass remigration. This country deserves its faith, hate these Irish liberal subhumans who only know how to party and do drugs and live "in the moment". Everything is hyper expensive here.
