Water usage is probably my biggest. Living in a high desert, my wife and MIL see no problem with filling one side of the sink with hot soapy water to wash a few dishes because “that’s just how I’ve always done it”, to watering the grass and plants for hours. All of this makes me mental.

    Using AI is amoral and I will never use it. As a programmer, every day it feels like I’m increasingly the minority.

      Damned if you do and damned if you don’t. Utilize the tools or you’ll end up unemployed.

        In all honesty, I don’t think I could live with myself and, at least currently, think I’d rather find a new career path.

          If you ever figure out what the path is let me know cuz any employable skills I have are going to be jobs affected by AI

          It ain’t trades because literally everyone is going to do that when AI kills all the other jobs

      don’t give up. you are not alone. patience is key and the time where deep understanding of technology will become essential again
