"two paragraphs suggesting bad business ideas should stop, as sarcastically as possible."

Oh yes, by all means, let’s keep investing in terrible business ideas—because who doesn’t love the thrill of watching money vanish faster than dignity at a karaoke bar? Let’s keep pushing forward with “Uber, but for pigeons,” or “AI-powered fax machines,” because what the world really needs is yet another subscription box that sends people socks they didn’t ask for. Forget innovation—mediocrity is clearly the gold mine we’ve all been ignoring.

And please, let’s never stop brainstorming more brilliant schemes like “gluten-free water” or “solar-powered flashlights” (for nighttime use, naturally). The market desperately craves apps that remind you to breathe, or perhaps a service where you pay extra for the privilege of picking your own groceries. Honestly, bad business ideas shouldn’t stop—they should be cherished, nurtured, and written about in MBA textbooks under the chapter titled “How to Fail Faster Than Light.”

I have given some of these AI coding assist tools a red hot go, and I spend more time deleting the absolute specious garbage they produce than anything else. The only time it is actually useful is when it is behaving like traditional content assist. Outside of that it's mostly producing crap. Even with perfect knowledge of the rest of the code base it still suggests stuff that is blatantly wrong. The also seem monumentally shit at test creation.

They are burger joint, you go there to eat average to bad food that triggers all the feel goods..

Enter with ones eyes wide open and enjoy a kind of food based hedonistic delight and you go home and feel guilty afterwards.

Go there a couple of times a year, enjoy it, all while knowing you will feel hungry again an hour or so later.

Comment Not surprised (Score 1) 92

I had to implement a bunch of native accelerations for a java api and I started using Rust only to find that virtually the entire thing from handling JNI calls and gaining critical access to java byte arrays through to the calling the CPU intrinsics was unsafe. Switched back to C because Rust didn't provide any additional safety and people take the C related issues seriously because C lacks the vaneer of security that Rust has.
