yeah thinking of some of the ppl ive met on the internet, id rather be talking to a bot lol… jkjk

but i think finding out after the fact that i was interacting with a bot somehow seems soulless… like, something i like about the internet is the (small) feeling of still being connected to the world. and that’d be lost if i knew i was interacting with a bot. i imagine there’s people who feel differently, but i think that’s nuts. if im interacting with a bot, i want to know it.

also like, in responding to you, i hope to further some intelligent discussion and positively affect the world. if you’re a bot, then that’s hopeless. or maybe im just affecting the ai model positively, idk.

have you met an engineer who doesnt copy code from stackexchange? I’m not saying they blindly paste it in and forget about it, but copying a line or two that you (now) understand is fine.

how do you know it’s not bots?

you can still be a good engineer and still copy code from stack exchange. i wasn’t saying windows engineers are bad

after the demo you can walk outside to experience the full dystopian game

windows engineers have probably been copying snippets from stackoverflow for decades, which may have been copied from the kernel or some other copyleft product

destroying books seems like a pretty tame problem to me when other companies are doing things like starting wars, getting people addicted to drugs, or destroying our democracy.
