I totally agree and have been thinking about this lately. My son has been been doing an incredible amount of engineering work on a fun side project manually including 3D design and printing, soldering etc. But he used Ai to program an arduino. I want him to understand the code but I'm trying to find the balance between the school classes, and all the other things needed for this project. He doesn't have time dive into it all right now. This project is giving him exposure but maybe the coding doesn't need to be done manually just yet.

Yeah, I can imagine that it's tricky to find a balance when so many new things are put together.

I didn't have the benefit of skilled teachers or parents that believed in my interests (and of course no LLMs!) so I didn't have a choice besides learning to deal with the frustration and getting good at scouring docs/code.

The craftsman didn't move to the assembly line.

I have kids, I would not be OK with anyone doing that to my kids. That is much different from being OK with the technology existing. Kids/people doing terrible things and kids/people allowing it to continue is the problem.

You can kill with a gun, a knife, a fork. Removing the tool does not change the situation of being around a person who wants to kill you.

We homeschool our kids and they have grown up to be respectful people.

For me, fogging my glasses means I have a leak and the air is being forced out gaps around my nose. Maybe under extreme weather conditions a perfect fit would still fog, but that's not what the op is talking about.

Toilets are available, but why use one if you have mastered pissing in a bottle? Sounds convenient to me :)

Note: I would not want to be forced to do that by my employer.

Toilets are available. Not enough toilets are available for public use

In addition to replacing single use plastic bags with heavy weight reusable bags. We can't reuse bags any more due to covid19. So now we are single using heavy weight reusable plastic bags.

That’s weird. In Ontario we just temporarily shut off the fee for single use bags and used them while things were bad.

Same, but once every 2 years. Just email me for goodness sake!

I agree. Sit in your front yard and work from there if the weather is nice. You may find more people routinely walk by than you thought. Say hello. No need to drive to "your community". Especially now that more people are working from home.
