Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online

I like it for coming up with quick, modular code that produces whatever direct result I want without having to reivent the wheel provided I more or less understand how it works and how to tweak it to refine what I want or how it does it
You're reinventing the wheel, just adding more bugs.
Nah, as long as it gives me the correct output for the range of inputs, i dont care so much. I make sure it gives me what I want and how can there be bugs when it gives me exactly what ask for, no more or less
And if you're both concerned about bugs and also don't have the time to verify it all manually, you can specify that you want the code to have plenty of sanity-checking and error logging functionality in it so that if something goes wrong you'll know immediately.
AI codegen is great for creating unit tests because human programmers never even bother to create unit tests most of the time.
