  This is how I use LLMs right now, and there have been a few times it’s been genuinely helpful. Mind you, most of the time it’s been helpful, it’s because it hallucinates some nonsense that gets me in the right direction, but that’s still at least a little better than the duck.

  I’ve been a software engineer for eight-ish years. No matter the industry or company I work for, a few times a year I encounter some arcane bug that turns out to be caused by dst or time zones or freaking leap seconds or clocks going backwards somehow. If I had my way we would all just be on GMT.

  You can also use winget to install it, if you’re into package managers

  winget install --id=dotPDNLLC.paintdotnet -e

  That way you can still get semi-automatic updates

  It sounds great, except it’s very similar to how we ended up with cable, and how streaming started, so I would expect to follow a similar pattern.
