Don't forget the specialty resume paper.

Not around these parts. We write on Basildon Bond 8)

for existing codebases, isn't doing /init in the project root good enough? I just like to keep things simple.


My experience as well and this was at public school. I really thought that was the only way to write a good essay.


I'd even argue LLMs can speed up this iterative process.


> Iran has been respecting that principle for decades

May 2022: two Greek Tankers seized by IRGC commandos

2023: Tankers Advnatage Sweet and Niovi seized by IRGC commandos

Jan 2024: St. Nikolas seized by Iranian Navy

Apr 2024: MSC Aries seized by IRGC commandos

During the Tanker War 1981 - 1988: Iran was responsible for approximately 168 attacks on merchant ships

July 1987: Kuwait tanker MV Bridgeton struck by Iranian mine April

1988: USS SAmuel B. Roberts nearly sunk by Iranian mine.

2019 Limpet Mine Attacks

Nov 2022: Pacific Zircon struck by Iranian drone


You forgot:

February 2026: USA blocking all oil tankers from going to Cuba, which has caused much more damage to the ordinary citizens of Cuba, than isolated incidents have done to other countries.


Whataboutism doesn't save your argument about Iran "respecting international law" being proven wrong.


> I'll lose understanding of the code, because I didn't write it.

What about code that other (human) engineers write? Do you not understand that code too because you didn't write it?


Intersting observation. There is a difference however. Pre-AI each human programmer understood the code they wrote, in general. So there were many humans who understood some part of the code. Poast-AI there will be no humans who understand any code, presumably. Sure we will understand its syntax, but the overall architecture of applications may be so complicated that no human can understand it, in practice.


Have you read Coding machines[0]?

BTW, that guy received an Oscar for coding. Oh, far far have we fallen since those days and how far we have yet to go...

> But the traffic will be there regardless

Isn't the point to use the GPS to avoid the traffic? In my experience, it's pretty effective a lot of times for that.


You are the traffic.

In my experience, if you are trying to dodge congestion at a peak time, so is everybody else. Excepting in the first 15-20 mins after a major incident, the alternate routes end up congested and settle to an equilbrium time because everyone is trying to do the same thing.


> Iran was NOT bombing its neighbours and demanding Hormuz toll before the war. Not even after it was bombed last June.

Iran has a history of launching rockets into Israel, both through it's proxies an directly. It has also invaded the US embassy holding 52 staff hostage, conducted unprovoked attacks against allied interests, attacks merchant ships in international waters and massacred tens of thousands of it's own people for the crime of speaking out against the government.

Your perception of Iran is delusional.


If using proxies invites invasion, then proportionally the USA should be nuked multiple tims over from the face of the earth given the mass scale of terrorism their proxies have conducted. So this proxy argument is nonsense.


Your reading is very selective. I didn't just mention proxies in my comment.


> They're saying, we did everything right. We got rid of the trans people in the military. We fired the worst women and black people in leadership roles. We put a real tough guy in charge of the military. We told our troops to stop worrying about rules of war and let them off their leash. So why is Iran still able to fight?

Who exactly is saying this? Your comment is worthless conjecture.


Well duh. That's why that paragraph starts with "I would bet...."


yes and some bets are smart and based on sound logic and evidence. Some are based on stuff pulled out of the better's ass. This is the latter.


Not sure why you keep feeling the need to reply to state the obvious.


Except for the little detail that Ukraine doesn't have a history of launching rockets into allied nations, invading embassies and holding staff hostage, unprovoked attacks against allied interests and ships in international waters and massacring it's own people for the crime of speaking out agains their government.
