As part of the wider phenomenon of "problems don't exist if they don't affect me personally."
One time my cool older brother was stopped at a stop sign and there was a bird on the stop sign and I looked at it and the bird looked at me then I watched it mouth my name.
Most guys can't afford me, but hundreds of men have agreed to timeshare me.

Even then, walkway was mostly right-wing critiques of democrats like saying "the looney left has gone too far!!!" anytime something almost kinda good happens.
I bet there's like 100 experienced front-end devs who'd like to make lemmy-ui faster/better/light-weight but nobody can run the UI locally, in fact it looks like it's easier to use any of the 3rd party apps. example: Xyphyn/photon or make you're own from scratch.
Ah yes, "progress" is when you have to learn microsoft's new single-platform GUI toolkit every 5 years, and the latest one is just a website pretending to be an application.
Never heard of Devin, but ChatGPT (the current leader) can barely follow instructions well, but is usually faster to get the information I need than Googling questions/topics for a wide variety of tasks. It's pretty much only good at things that had solid stackoverflow answers, including combining 2 questions or answering it for any language. Anytime you attempt to add complexity or details, previous details just fall off at random eventually. Sometimes it just can't combine 2 key details. Sometimes you get a lot of dead-ends. This mostly makes up for Google not being as good as it was 10 years ago, but my productivity boost is probably less than 10%. With Google, you probably click into 2-10 websites which almost all them missing a key keyword (you know a keyword that was key...). Some of the Google quick information boxes copy information from a website and phrase it in the form of a response to your question, but sometimes that specific data point had nothing to do with your question. An example would be a random date in the webpage was picked by Google's LLM to answer my question, but the date I was looking for was not even in the webpage. ChatGPT usually does well if you ask it 101 stuff or questions about well documented non-obscure facts or starting-from-scratch stuff or "write a function that does X". Anything else, you can almost safely assume a miss on first attempt, and a dead-end (no further conversing reaches viable solution) very likely.
not me, when 99,999 coders get laid off because AI took their jobs, they're all going to sit around and do nothing all day, meanwhile I'm going to be the one who continues to apply for jobs or use those AI tools to make 50 micro-startups!!!
The entire point of the Holodomor narrative is "look mommy, he had a Holocaust, too!". Holocaust Trivialization is a form of Holocaust Denial.
