Perhaps not when the code is getting written (by yourself or by an AI).
When you're dealing with a memory leak in production (yes, they can and do happen), or worse -- if you're dealing with a drop in performance -- good luck with the vibe debugging.
Maybe there will be a time not too far off in the future when the stochastic cockatoos become sentient enough to do all of this by themselves, it's sure as hell not happening tomorrow.
Oh, and logarithmic tables were still a useful thing as late as forty odd years ago :)
I thought the Poles needed to be either all on the left-hand plane, or within the unit disk, for stability? (I haven't had my coffee yet, so maybe I'm remembering wrong).
You’re contradicting yourself with that statement. Microsoft is seen as a mercenary… yes they make a lot of money, that’s proof they’re a mercenary. If you want to prove they are not then point to software categories they invented, not how much money they are making.
Good question. So far comments here mostly seem to be human generated, but I would be surprised if there were no AI generated ones. It is also possible to fool me. I'm going with - for now - the default that it was not AI.
Rodents chewing through cables is a problem even in latitudes closer to the equator, where it can get hot enough that they don't (need to) seek an engine for its warmth.
