  • You clearly haven’t experimented with AI much in a work environment. When asked to do specific things that you are not sure if are possible it will 100% ignore part of your input and always give you a positive response at first.

    “How can I automate outlook 2020 to do X?”
    ‘You do XYZ’
    me, after looking it up"that’s only possible in older versions"
    ‘You are totally right, you do IJK’
    “that doesn’t achieve what i asked”
    ‘Correct, you can’t do it.’

    And don’t get me started on APIs of actual frameworks… I’ve wished to punch it hard when dealing with react or spark. Luckily I usually know my stuff and only use it to find a quick example of something that I test locally before implementing if 5 mins of googling didn’t give me the baseline, but the amount of colleagues that not only blindly copy code but argue with my reasoning saying “chatgpt says so” is fucking crazy.

    When chatgpt says something I know is incorrect I ask for sources and there’s fucking none. Because it not possible my dude.





  • Are you intentionally ignoring that the actual names of the files are “11. EpisodeEleven.mp3”? There’s whitespaces and a bunch of letters there.

    I’m also a professional programmer, and assuming that sorting by numbers code would try to grab the first block of strings until the first whitespace is a big assumption I would not make. I’d say that after trying to convert everything but the extension to a number for sorting it failed so it defaulted to string sorting for everything else.


  • I don’t mind when there’s physical menus but people saying that they would leave the restaurant when there’s not is crazy for me, menus are a waste of paper and ink.

    I’m more used to either PDFs that are updated once per year (and the restaurant usually has a bunch of physical copies, but not enough for everyone on peak hour and that’s completely reasonable) or webapps that have the regular menu where they can strikethrough sold out items so that it’s easier for customers to notice, add dynamic items like “the fish of the day”, or even being able to click each item to get a preview image.

    I agree that having prices be updated every hour/minute day according to demand is incredibly scummy and completely inexcusable, and restaurants that do those things should be boycotted, but that’s a separate from the menu digitalization.
