"I just want to be a cog in the machiiiiiiine why are you bringing up these things that make me think?! ew ethics and integrity are so hard"

oh i know wittle hary pawter! son of a woodcraftsen, right? over yonder town way?

been a little while since we had A Programming Dot Dev here, I think. guess it was time

it is chefskiss.tiff that I keep "having conversations"[0] where people tell me that "AI" is "well-suited" to "data extraction that traditional tools struggle with" and then datapoints like this keep. coming. up.

[0] - I....am not inviting these. the promptfans just Defend their twisted little hearts away, unasked. it is tedious.

oh good I needed a replacement free host for my other-other wireguard bouncy box. thanks aws

just you wait until you hear about the scandalous lunch date I had with my political rivals

(we had ~burgers~)

depends on audience / person? and also maybe teacher

I've stepped people through essentials with e.g. idea "tell me how to make coffee" (as an intro to procedurals and dependency) all the way through many other types/shapes, through lego/blockly/whatever style teaching, and through outright "imagine this is a magic box and ${thing} comes out the other side" stepped iteration. sometimes you can jump straight to "hey so here's a language that means specific things and here's what that means" and go from there

so yeah I guess for my part I'd say I attune to the recipient. but for advice toward teacher I guess I'd attune that toward what I figure they'd be good at teaching

so... what're you good at (teaching)?

aww schucks 😳

(I have a whole suit of gameshow ideas for felon to participate in tbh; the magic formula is "just make him do anything at all that requires a tiny bit of specific detail" combined with literally anything else, with a 7/10 "oh yeah no sorry the wifi isn't working and cell reception is bad down here[0]" layout. guaranteed comedic success.)

it is funny as fuck, though

on which note: I would love to see a kind of "double-blind" experience where a pile of (ideally, more clever/clueful) muskrats get to interact with felon (without knowing that they are), and then watch the fallout as they all go "wtf is this dumbass I'm speaking to"

I'm thinking something in the survivor-y format of shows

probably wouldn't ever happen, felon's too fucking proud (and would 10000000% rig the game to own image advantage). but in a perfect world where this happened, oh wouldn't that just be some great television

narcissism is a fuck

this is a pithy framing, I admit, and with him as possibly a boundary-pushing narcissist with record-breaking voids inside.... still

(why I was not as harsh as in earlier comments)
