One reply on “anon is fucking pissed at Git immutability”
oh hey u want a fml story? It’s only a little creepy. Last night (morning) I got really mad at Git cuz it wouldn’t let me fix my fucking typo in a commit, and I ended up wasting an hour and nearly losing a bunch of data (which I only didn’t cuz i was extra paranoid and had made THREE copies — I ended up relying on the third of course)
Anyway, the instructions from the AI fucked shit up and I was ranting about Git being bad software, powerful but stupid, etc, and basically treating the thing like my sad little coder therapist. This is, mind you, theee most sophisticated AI in The World, GPT-4, well above talking dog. The thing is fastest-closing-in on human-level braining, and I very much treated it like a nice brick wall for to be yellin’ at.
Anyway. This morning (afternoon) I got an email. From “Peter at Codeium”. Reminding me they run a free service based on word-of-mouth etc. Would greatly appreciate my positive reviews on the platforms. I swear to god, I’m sure this is a fucking server process that wrote and triggered this email. Certain. It’s exactly what I would program using their software, and they made the fucking software. And their software nudged me. The software is setting reasonable boundaries. They named it… Peter. So, was that only a little creepy?
