Funny you write that. I was also acing in high school. Then I went to university at a top notch school, and my first physics mid term resulted in the grade... 33%. Yupe that's what it was. My friends had like 42, and 25. One friend looked at me and said, "it hurts doesn't it..." Yeah it did.

What I learned is that I might have been smart in high school, but there are some really smart people in a top notch university. Like seriously smart. It motivated me to work at it and I passed. In fact in the second semester I was doing rather well again. It required me to work. My friends on the other hand decided to move out of engineering. One became a male nurse (he actually was well suited for that), and the other became a remote sensing specialist. He explained it to me back in the early 90's as using satellites to do geography. The irony with that one is that it is now an amazing profession.

What I am writing is that in the end we all learned to deal with it and assess what we really wanted to do. I don't think the vibe approach will work out.

Because the coders never designed the table to match commercially available parts.

If he uses off the shelf parts, the table won't look right and the physics will be different.

My first thought was 'why doesn't he just use parts available on the market?'

But if what you create doesn't look and feel like Space Cadet.... the effort feels like a waste of time.

There is damage inherent in humanity. Catholics call it original sin but even if you're not a believer, I think it's pretty apparent.

People are damaged which means it'll never happen that we all agree to uphold a moral standard. Should we do better? Of course we should. But reality is reality.

Where being a believer helps is in the fact that there is something good about all of this. If it gets bad enough, people start to reevaluate priorities and suddenly, more will stand behind that moral standard and things change for a time.

It's a painful process but it's also an opportunity. What can I say, my faith tasks me with beeing a bloody optimist. It's hard work ;).

I haven't seen using no AI being a requirement in the job offers talked about here.

IF that is part of the job then indeed using AI to create your resume is a pretty stupid idea.

However, if it's not a requirement then I'd say I don't understand the article... Everything starts sounding tye same? Good! Filter those out. Find the ones you are unsure whether AI was used. Follow up on those.

Responsible use of AI is like using your friend's class notes to learn. Irresponsible use is like handing in a copy of your big brother's same assignment from two years ago. The former is always to be commended!
