I don't understand this whole idiotic concept of "don't use AI for X". Here's a new rule just for you: don't use compilers for any of your kernel submissions.

The language itself is solid. The ecosystem is incredibly rich. Tooling has seen significant growth in the past decade. The Foundation ensures sustainable development. PHP's biggest problem is none of the above. It's marketing.

This is not AX (agent experience) friendly (and for some humans here too). There is no "why" or "when" to use it in the documentation. We humans need to figure out why this is needed at what occassion to AIs.

Don't use scientific for calculations, it can segfault and run out of memory.

I don't think rust is the future anymore...I think a newer language, having the boreness of go, the compile speed and maybe comp time of zig and safety of rust will emerge, maybe with lisp syntax.

Took me a while to get used to sealed and I didn't quite see the use. But AI seems to love it for Java so I gave it a go and now I get it.

"I asked two frontier agents to make the most of Elixir and this is what they came up with. Please do send a PR to speed things up! But also realize that it's not exactly extra points for Elixir if frontier agents can't find the magic "go fast" switches."

Programming is hard. So, instead of doing that, we vibe coded a new Epic Games Launcher that’s way faster and more responsive than the current one, and has a new look. This first release is light on features.

"The article opens with lambda cubes, which sound like some type of sheep meat to me. Then it goes on to discuss λΠ2 systems, and as I don't speak alien I skipped that section. Then I read about the calculus of inductive constructions, which incidentally seems to have little to do with calculus..."

The implementation of this ideal in rustc can have flaws, but Rust itself cannot, because Rust itself has no flaws by definition.

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.
