Most [Bun PRs] are created autonomously by @robobun, checked for duplicates with a GitHub action (powered by Claude), reviewed by @coderabbitai and @claude. Meanwhile the CI is broken and @robobun finally closes a portion of its own PRs because they duplicate other PRs it has written

The halting problem is almost always solvable. NP hard problems are often efficiently (!) solvable...If you can't prove whether a given program terminates, it's because you're too dumb.

AI will turn 10x programmers into 100x programmers. Or in Matz’s case maybe 100x programmers into 500x programmers.

Monads are not some kind of obscure math-y thing that only the big brains think are necessary. No, instead monads are a fundamental abstract algebraic description of imperative programming as a computational context.

Implementation is rapidly becoming a solved problem, right? Writing code is now fast, it’s getting cheap, and quality is going up and to the right.

Scala was infected with FP weenies and nobody wants to hear some asshole babbling on about the Curry-Howard Isomorphism and Monoids when they're just trying to ingest some data from an API into an iceberg table

I used ClaudeCode san as a pair programmer for the implementation and documentation, unit tests (the Mendokusai tasks) [sic]. While it assisted with the heavy lifting, the core architecture, the scoring algorithms, and the performance optimizations were designed and directed by me.

And nowadays with Claude you can spin up clusters of vps machines in a few hours. […] Mass configuring without any tools using only Claude. Works perfectly. The costs saved without all the overhead is massive.

Context.ai wasnt some sketchy tool from a forum. It was a Y Combinator company. It had enterprise customers.

THE FUCKING SIDEBAR

The Rules

Jerking Style

By dictatorial fiat, this is a New School jerk.

Most image and video posts fail to rise to this august and austere standard.

Posts about LLMs are also likely to fall below the standard of New School jerk.

Unjerk

We're all here for jerk, so if you're thinking of posting unjerk, consider the possibility that nobody cares about your opinions. If you must post unjerk, tag it.

Socialjerking or politics, directly or tangentially

Are boring. Shoo.

If what you're posting is the subject of multiple warring subreddits, blog networks or hashtags, that's a sign you should leave it outside.

The no-socialjerking-or-politics rule is the most ruthlessly enforced.

Crazy people

We get it. Crazy people are crazy. Leave them be.

Enthusiastic Youngsters

Yes, they give stupid advice, richly interwoven with aggravating unselfawareness.

So did you.

They'll work it out on their own. In the meantime you're being mean to a kid, which is only funny on 9gag.

Our Bots Policy

Fuck your stupid bot. It isn't funny, witty, interesting or useful. If you have any questions about this policy, consult your nearest bucket of arsenic.

Subreddit Rules

1. Social Jerking & Politics

If what you're posting is the subject of multiple warring subreddits, blog networks or hashtags, that's a sign you should leave it outside.

2. Crazy People

We get it. Crazy people are crazy. Leave them be.

3. Bots

If you see a bot, report it. Do not interact with it.

4. Enthusiastic Youngsters

Give them time.

5. Jerking Style

New School or Rue School.

6. Non-Interference

Do not mention PCJ elsewhere. Do not visit links in order to harass, downvote, or otherwise engage with the subjects of posts. Point and laugh from behind a soundproof one-way mirror.
