The constant memory wouldn’t be so bad if it weren’t dumb, wrong, and forced.
I hit the wall with it several times today trying to refine some text for a job application. The fact I considered doing babies first Rust project last fall lead to constant non-productive interjections and digressions about my supposed Rust skills and the Rust ecosystem.
Trying to create an unrelated spreadsheet to model an investment resulted in broad and incorrect criticism of my choice of spreadsheet tools, explaining in horrendous programming analogies why and how I’ve misunderstood how a spreadsheet works. “Think of the XLSX as a compiler…”
There has been a palpable down-step in communication & execution.
Agreed. I wish I could turn it off completely but they no longer let you do that (because, you know, that would be too much to ask for...). The most hilarious thing is that I've had it refer to code it's generated for prototyping ideas I've had as mine! As an example, a few weeks back I was musing about Ada and how I wish there was another compiler in the OSS ecosystem for it, and now it will randomly throw in "You wrote an Ada 2022 compiler" when talking about my skills or where I'm at and I'm like.... Yeaaaaa okay then.
