That really sounds like a you problem. Both ChatGPT and Claude have written a lot of code for me that have been life changing. My billing process used to take me a complete workday to complete. It now takes an hour. Painful processes have been replaced by painless code. Do I know if the code is efficient, maintainable, or secure? I don't. Do I know if it works? Yes.

What do you mean by "not pleasant." No part of airline travel is pleasant, except perhaps arrival at your final destination. I travel out of the US 3 times a year (4 this year) and I've seen none of the crap people are talking about here. Yes, they line you up when you arrive in the US. They lined me up when I arrived in the UK and and they line me up when I arrive in Germany. You know what I fear? The beagle at O'Hare, looking for fruit and stuff in checked bags.

> is you can stop believing in it Believing in what? Science is not something to have faith in. It doesn't lead to truth. Science is a method for making sense of the universe - that's it. There is no step in the method that says "you can believe this is true" nor "this is settled." Science pursues truth - but the pursuit is never ending. 2+2 is 4. That's not science - that's math. You can put your faith in math - math is truth.

Comment Re:It's not about the parents (Score 1) 94

It is about the parents. Involved parents started their kids reading early. They taught them to be curious and unafraid. They supported them through good times and bad. Private, generally Catholic schools in the US have consistently produced much better results than public schools, without the same level of funding. The teachers usually want to be there, and the parents are involved - they made the investment to send their kids there instead of the free option. It is the parents. It always is - everywhere.
