Been a few months since I used co-pilot, but they use a model that's worse than GPT-4/4o which is a big step down from the reasoning models.

Try out Cline, aider, or one of the tools devs actually use with the latest models from Anthropic/Google/OpenAI.

Didn't look through all the issues but there were things like

The agent was blocked by configuration issues from accessing the necessary dependencies to successfully build and test. Those are being fixed and we'll continue experimenting.

Been out less than a week, let's see how it's doing in a year.

Yes, despite the irrational phobia amongst the Lemmings, AI is massively useful across a wide range of examples like you've just given as it reduces barriers to building something.

As a CS grad, the problem isn't it replacing all programmers, at least not immediately. It's that a senior software engineer can manage a bunch of AI agents, meaning there's less demand for developers overall.

Same way tools like Wix, Facebook, etc came in and killed the need for a bunch of web developers that operated in the range for small businesses.

Everybody just pretend to work

Is she a gerbil?

It’s Katy Perry

Some guy fantasising about shooting up public spaces if any of his loved ones get cancer from exhaust fumes.

I wasn't arguing against building communities to be built around human beings, I'm saying they aren't so it's infeasible.

I've never seen anyone with kids on bikes here because it'd be miserable. Narrow roads, parked traffic, and no safe routes from A->B for most things. No bike routes, can't go on the motorway, backroads are a death sentence. Looking at a cargo bike - never seen one IRL - that would fit a small weekly shop. Then you have the kids and all their stuff. God forbid we want to take the dog also.

There's no need to spend on a car. There's a shop for essentials within walking distance like there is anywhere I've lived in the UK, you could just not visit people who live further than walking distance from you, rely on other people to drop off things for you. Spend a lot more time commuting doing smaller trips to avoid being overloaded, spend more in the expensive local shops. Order a delivery from ASDA instead of driving around the zero waste shops, local co-ops, etc. Just a lot less practical and more restrictive. Not really edge cases, people use their cars to transport stuff regularly. New homes take time to build up, new family members, refurbishments, events, etc. If you don't drive then someone else is doing it for you or you're just doing less.

The juice and alcohol would barely fit in the carts

Move furniture frequently, do have a physical disability, pets, kids. Not feasible without a car. Using taxis all the time would be a fortune and kinda defeats the purpose, no?
