                              Yelling at clouds

I will admit—these are kneejerk reactions, but they're honestly my reactions
to reading the following statements. I know, I know, hanging onions off our
belt is long out of style.

And get off my lawn!

Anyway … statment the first:

> Think jq, but without having to ask an LLM (Large Language Model) to write
> the query for you.
>

Via Lobsters [1], “A float walks into a gradual type system [2]”

So … using jq is so hard you need to use a tool that will confabulate ¼ of
the time in order to construct a simple query? Is that what you are saying?
That you can't be bothered to use your brain? Just accept the garbage spewed
forth by a probabilistic text slinger?

Really?

And did you use an LLM to help write the code? If not, why not?

Sigh.

And statement the second:

> … and most importantly, coding can be social and fun again.
>

Via Lobsters [3], “introducing tangled [4]”

If I had known that programming would become a team sport, I, an introvert,
would have choosen a different career. Does XXXXXXX everything have to be
social? Why can't it just be fun? I need to be micromanaged as well?
