ime a crappy dev will make crappy code faster, an experienced dev might have better results but the tools are designed to nudge you into letting go more and more and reading less and less. its a slot machine in the sense that the machine is designed to make you turn your brain off at every level.

look man, you can tell me that AI coding is a professional technique that's here to stay and all the serious guys do it

or you can say "wahhh it's too hard, we used the turn-your-brain-off box instead"

but it can't be both
points for being honest at least

I know this is ragebait but I want to make 2 points:

1 - I’ve seen many people with high-stress jobs say that rtv, or “trash tv” is what they need at the end of a long day. sometimes you just gotta turn your brain off

2 - watching prestige tv does not make you better or smarter than others
The fuck do y’all be talking about. 😬 it’s dumb people that don’t believe in nuance by the fucking way 🤣

I talk to other writers who have to use LLMs at day jobs and my advice is always, "Listen, you do what you have to do to eat. But if you want to keep your brain? You turn all that shit off at 5pm and you NEVER EVER PICK IT UP AGAIN outside of those hours." You can literally feel your brain atrophy

Sometimes you just gotta turn off your brain and let yourself be used! Especially if said brain is working overtime otherwise

Every OC has a full story!

We keep trying this thing where we just make characters for situations where everyone just gets turn your brain off fun fucking time.

But the characters keep developing depth and plot and shit together and it's Oops! All Lore all over again.
Does your OC have extensive lore outside of their sex lives, is that in development, or do they not need it?

Venting (with expletives):

Just saw an ad for a #genealogy talk abt using #AI to turn 'Data into Stories.'

Do you actually think your descendants want to read an AI-generated family history? Fuck off with that. Evaluate and interpret the data w/ your own brain and write your own damn stories.

Sometimes your brain shuts off at 2pm because you have multiple fatigue disorders fighting inside you and you have to be ok with that

Maybe it will turn back on; we never truly know

Contextually it might be best enjoyed with a healthy dose of psilocybin so you can turn your brain off and just vibe with the accents and landscapes. Also sound off means you miss Lightfoot

I caught a few eps here and there when it was on but only really got into it this year when my gf was rewatching, and had a blast. Just need to turn off the part of your brain where you never want to see or hear from many of those people ever again

you ever have a hard time concentrating or getting into the writing zone on your pc so you eventually just stop trying to get more words out & turn it off and then 15 minutes later find yourself able to write easily on your phone. why are you like this brain lmao

+ amused, returning the nudge.

“If you're asking because you think I'm about to have an emotional breakdown, I'm not. You're the one losing sleep over movies. Need to turn your brain off from time to time.”

Mega Garchomp Z being so utilized in vgc regionals makes me genuinely so happy it's awesome because I was annoyed at the people going "nah they fucked up the mega twice" over it not being a 'turn off your brain and click your strongest stab move' button like garchomp's normal form is

it rules.

7~ You can feel a lock clicking on your collar, making this all the permanent~
6~ I turn the key, locking you collar on tight~
5~ I break the key off inside the lock, because there’s no reason to unlock your brain, is there?

When you were an ADHD child incapable of falling asleep because your brain lacked the wiring to turn off at a normal hour, you had your overnight friends on TV in the 90s.

Friends like the infomercials of Ron Popeil and Yahweh ben Yahweh, and the loopy ABC overnight news.
