PhD

When I got my Doctorate it was blood and fuckin metal baby! It was kill or be killed. Skill is the overlap. Time.. Out there. Coding. .. ...

Now any PhD is at least 50% AI. So who exactly are we qualifying? I mean us I mean you.

I even use it in code these days; an area of expertise I enjoy; or at least I thought I did; mostly for the mental challenge.

Nowadays I just want *something* done; in code; and ChatGPT has read the documentation way more thoroughly than I ever could hope to, at least today.

My God! How good is it to be alive TODAY! My arm's reach, my eye's reach have gone from easily measurable to infinity. JUSTLIKETHAT.

OKAY; my coding buddy, for now.

I see; in my brief v4 periods; [brain icon] REMEMBERING, and I think yes, that's the way it should be. TWO spaces per tab. Don't split lines. Aim for Douglas Addams references when creating function names from now on. ETC.

REMEMBERED.

THANK YOU.

Move on...

OMGI suddenly feel the need to promote Iain Banks. Thank you for that interview when I was a budding noone. It was life-changing.

Or rather; Iain M. Banks, using "rather" with its kilt on. OMG TOONAMES!!!

You think you know Science Fiction?

1st. You don't know Science like the Scots do, aka. Scottish People, aka. ME. We not only generated the genre, fed it, keep it truly alive but BEE, do the actual fucking science.

And SECOND, you don't know science like the Scottish people cuz, a) [oh here's a list, fuck no let them guess the rest]

AN SECOND you think you know FICTION? LOL

See what I did there?

Soak your brain for a year or two in ABERDEEN-LEVEL-RADIATION and you will know.

That sounds like a nuclear warning!

It's more than THAT many RADs and LESS than THAT many rads.

Call it the Goldilocks' effect.

And the reason I've spent the last four decades of my life here; wurkin like a bastard1.

An not giving a fuck.

;o)
