when I was working in the residential ISP space some years ago during the FCC credits, we had some basic plans (25/3Mbit, 35/5Mbit) that were entirely or mostly covered by that discount program. it’s by no means a flashy number but it gave thousands of our customers access to broadband, that most of them lost the ability to afford it as soon as the discount ended. go California, I hope this works out because it’s super important for everyone to have broadband
same, it takes a backbone to actually say that he tried it and it was also ass. I’m not a programmer, I’m not even good at it, I just do it to help with my actual job as an infra engineer - and AI still cocks that up too. I can’t even depend on it to reliably be able to know which CIDR notation matches which subnet mask, net ID, and broadcast address.
No professional working on any system worth its salt should ever use AI for any part of it, without at minimum meticulously picking through the code - in which case why not write it yourself?
