Amen. Context is king, and managing context well is key to proper AI assisted coding. Also, staying accountable for the final output, as you stated in the end.

Not having good (or any in most cases) context management techniques is like saying your car is slowing you down because you have to push it everywhere you go.

I use NotebookLM to manage project context, and do scoping, planning and requirement elaboration which gets copied to Jira tickets (similar to what you explained in the first part) . On the coding side I use Claude Code with the Jira MCP. I use the copy-pasting between project and code domains to correct any mistakes AIs might have introduced. We developed a plugin which captures our engineering best practices and instructs the AI agent to discuss every aspect of the implementation and the task breakdown with the developer before writing any code or tests, as well as to keep a local progress tracker file for every ticket which also serves to capture any insights that emerged during the discussion. This file serves as long term memory between chat sessions, and also gets committed for future reference by humans and AI alike. And I always do a thorough self review towards the end.

I’m convinced beyond doubt coding without modern AI assistants and not gaining experience with them is a mistake. Resist the knee-jerk reaction to downvote comments which give you blueprints to evolve you practice because you have antipathy for AI. I don’t care about the little number at the top of this comment, but I think everyone should start learning and developing new techniques to improve their workflows.

I’m not surprised, but this finding would not have crossed my mind.

Ouch

Do you have a signed agreement with them on the original schedule? I don’t think it’s legal for them to unilaterally change that agreement.

The title (click bait as it is) withholds the most important qualifier from the text of which AI we are talking about:

"“Overall, our model shows that the job loss from AI computer vision, even just within the set of vision tasks, will be smaller than the existing job churn seen in the market […]”

Sure, computer vision is important for some jobs, but it’s a much smaller subset of jobs that is really deemed protected as claimed by the study. If the knowledge has already been coded to text on the other hand, it’s a different story.

Yes, yes and yes (I contribute money).

I’m A YouTube Premium subscriber, and I’ve been noticing this delay on my TV for a few days now - a very noticeable, long pause when opening the home screen until the thumbnails are loaded. I’ll explicitly check other places too now, I’m not sure if it’s also happening in Firefox for me.

I stick with DuckDuckGo, it stays as it is. Every time I go to Google I see they are messing with the experience, making it easier to end up on sponsored content and harder to just get what you need. Not so with DuckDuckGo.

Depends on the size. Of the pics I mean.

It is referring to that Roblox developer conference. But yeah, somewhat click baity as people might be hoping to get one for cheap.

“To a request for comment, X only sent Ars an auto-response, saying, “Busy now, please check back later.” (To be fair, in this case “check back later” is a good summary of what happened.)” 😂

I agree, that’s what I’m saying. I used “this” ambiguously, I just realized. I edited “this” to “this comment”, and added another clarifying sentence before the quote.

Here’s an excerpt from the older article which isn’t paywalled, that I linked in my comment (before the edit):

"Constructed more than 20 years ago, the turbines at the small Keyenberg wind park are less powerful than modern equivalents, with each producing about 1MW of energy per hour at a wind speed of 15 metres per second, roughly a sixth of the output of a more efficient state of the art turbine.

Since windfarms in Germany are no longer eligible for subsidies after 20 years in operation, the park would probably have been “repowered” with new technology or wound down even if it were not for the nearby mine.

Nonetheless, North-Rhine Westphalia’s ministry for economic and energy affairs on Monday urged RWE to abort its plans to dismantle the windfarm.

“In the current situation, all potential for the use of renewable energy should be exhausted as much as possible and existing turbines should be in operation for as long as possible,” a spokesperson said."

The title, paired with an expensive paywall and the fact that the quote below is the only part visible for free would certainly suggest that this comment is true.

Here’s the un-paywalled article intro:

"German energy giant RWE has begun dismantling a wind farm to make way for a further expansion of an open-pit lignite coal mine in the western region of North Rhine Westphalia.

One wind turbine has already been dismantled, with a further seven scheduled for removal to excavate an additional 15m to 20m tonnes of so-called ‘brown’ coal, the most polluting energy source."

I think this article from last year is relevant to this story: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/oct/26/german-windfarm-coalmine-keyenberg-turbines-climate

Coursera should let you take (most parts of most) courses for free but without the ability to get a certificate (which you cannot get from a ripped course either). Have you tried that?
