- Love ARM powered laptops
- Is Sam Altman just Zuckerberg ² - even more move fast and ignore any consequences

05/22/2024, 7:00 AM- Maybe AI can do great things in the future but I have such a difficult time trusting it's output. Hallucinations should just be called mistakes, and there are a great many mistakes.
- On the other hand, I am trialing GitHub Copilot Workspace and it is really good at helping me get a lot of gruntwork out of the way, but there is many mistakes, I wouldn't want to try it in a programming language I'm not familiar with.
- Cute of MS that all of their data centers will run on renewable energy by next year, but all that new AI-capable hardware needs to be produced and that pollutes so much. Also, can we not use that renewable energy for something better than AI??

05/22/2024, 8:22 AMOoh that looks really cool! I want to try it on some Umbraco issues as well!
It's particularly good at typescript I hear from the feedback others are providing.

05/22/2024, 8:46 AMI was working on a new project, C#, gave it an empty console app and told it to write me an API integration, worked okay, it got the C# models wrong (even though I gave it the swagger definition). It also generated invalid C# at times. But all in all, saved me a bunch of time writing the boring stuff.

05/22/2024, 8:50 AMYeh not sure what I will try for C# - maybe logviewer electron app to see if its any good

05/22/2024, 11:14 AMDon't know what other alternatives there are, just Electron is going out of vogue

05/22/2024, 11:15 AMI am comfortable with Web stack
Warren Buckley
05/22/2024, 11:15 AMBut Discord, Slack, WhatsApp VSCode all use Electron

05/22/2024, 11:18 AMI know! Also it doesn't really matter for a small app, though the memory footprint is excessive for at least Discord and Slack.
