At least for the gas this is the start of a better way of thinking about the problem. When I still lived in the US, I heard ppl complain about the price of gas all the time. However, I never heard complaints about our dependency on gas or the economic problem that the cheapest stuff there is per volume felt expensive to buy.

This is a helpful clarification, thanks. Then my question to you is, should the viber cease and desist? Is this not a valid way for them to foment an interest in software/tool/website development? Surely if their code has deep issues, they’ll discover that eventually and maybe learn from it, right?

Like, someone could try to learn a language by only using an ai translator. It’s lazy and not as effective, but I wouldn’t discourage someone from pursuing the language on account of that.

Fair. But my impression is that passing snippets around has been standard practice since the beginning. What makes the code yours, in my opinion, is the application of the snippets and the creativity involved. I don’t see the LLMs as threatening this in a big way, yet.

I think you’ve hit the nail on the head with wanting bike traffic to be separated for everyone’s sake. However, riding a bike on a sidewalk instead of in the road isn’t safer for anyone, which is why it’s illegal in many if not most US cities. I know it’s counterintuitive. Reading up about it might help curb some of your frustration though.

Commendable. I don’t recommend it, but I commend it.

There are good lists of alternatives out there. For Germany, I like this one: https://lmaa.space/
