One definition of legacy code is code that you're afraid to change. (And you should be afraid to change any code that doesn't have automated test coverage.)

Aren't LLMs just legacy code generators? You can generate tests, but until you've tested the tests, they're legacy code too.

"Water isn't wet. Things that touch water are wet."

The reason water isn't dry is because water is constantly touching water, making the water wet.

The reason the ocean is wet is because in 1987 I accidentally spilled my Capri Sun on it during a childhood beach outing. I tried to dry it out with napkins but after the tenth napkin the hot dog stand guy said they were for customers only.

But people take this as a victory for AI. How do I convey that 80% isn't good enough, or even worse than nothing? It's like flying a plane with 80% of its parts working, or knowing how to do 80% of a heart transplant surgery.

All public libraries really do need to put "Checking out books from libraries is completely free! There are zero subscriptions fees!" on their signs out front.

Us older folks don't know how bad "normal" is for younger folks.

Right-wingers will make tempting offers to the left, "Just give us the trans people and the immigrants, and you won't have to lose on all your other positions. Just let them go, don't defend them, don't die on this hill. It's a smart and necessary political sacrifice to make in order to move forward with the rest of your agenda."

It's a lie of course. Every time the left concedes something to fascists, the fascists gain something. You can't smartly surrender yourself to victory.

I found myself thinking that at least presidents are limited to two terms, and then I caught myself; that's the old way of thinking.

I'm going to have to stop doing that.

"Could I have done more?"

Yeah. Of course you could have done more. Would it have changed anything? Probably not. You are not the main character.

The best time to stop fascism was ten years ago. The second best time is right now.

I don't like to be negative about programming language stuff, but if your Python idea is, "there's already a way to do this, but here's an idea for new syntax to do it with less typing" then not only is it not a good idea, it's a bad idea.

That's how Python becomes Perl.
