@catsalad Cats give more reliable and honest answers.

@catsalad ... it said meow? :3

[chrisholladay@mastodon.social]

@catsalad
It hollered to be fed

@catsalad the playlist of songs my cat Spiegel likes is now 69 tracks and 6 hours long. Would trust his recommendations over an algorithm

@benteg @catsalad "Rubber duck" sessions with a cat are much better than with any flavor of "AI".

Me: "Argh. I'm having trouble frobulizing the mibbler object in this Python module. It keeps running out of glunks before the frobulizer is done."
Cat: meow
Me: "So...what do you think about bobulizing it first? That might clear some of the glunks out of the skrebble cache. A full cache can slow things down a lot."
Cat: meow
Me (stops to pet cat, which helps clear my brain a bit)
Cat: meow
Me: "Thinking about it some more ... yeah, I'll want to bobulize things first. The latest release of AWS Frogspawn Ciabatti Cloud definitely uses glunks less efficiently than AWS Blobcat TreeTrunk did."
Cat: meow
Me: "Now that I've cleared up the slow step, I should be able to frobulize the mibbler now. Thanks!"
Cat: meow
Me: "Love you too."

@catsalad@infosec.exchange isn't chatgpt literally pronounced the same as "cat i farted" in french or something?

@catsalad no drake.

@catsalad @dpnash @benteg

whilst I've not discussed technical stuff with a cat (I don't even have one of my own, but a neighbours ginger tom regularly visits), we sit and meow together both indoors and out in the street, in full view of the neighbours, which makes far more sense than any AI

Cat's probably like "why are you still running Frogspawn?"

[catboycody@tech.lgbt]

@catsalad Does a large plush cat count? Have one sitting on my desk and after hours of discussions with Rust's borrow checker, I had to rest my face in it and scream internally...

[eribosot@mastodon.social]

@dpnash @benteg @catsalad I'm still from the pre-rubber duck generation, when you would bother a colleague with your problem and it was called "Debugging by Confession."

[lordcaramac@discordian.social]

@catsalad Murp? Me-eh-ow.

[clickhere@mastodon.ie]

@catsalad There's no comparison.

[mrgrumpymonkey@mastodon.social]

@dpnash @benteg @catsalad If I didn't know any better, you've gone crazy and started speaking gibberish. Don't worry. we all do it.
