<!-- SC_OFF -->me and my friend always get so annoyed by customers asking things like "what is computer processing unit" and "what is python" so we created our own little language to use during the job so we dont have to explain everything all the time: kaboom - code shazam - web wham o - c++ splooge - internet boo yah - coolant sha boo ya - binary pow - internet zhow wow - motherboard wham - clock boom - dipshit (in reference to random person usually) shabam - code shabamming - coding krack a lack a - mainframe pkow - python pew - pixel here is an example of us using it: Help! there is a pkow eating my leg and stuff! also too bad that boom doesnt even know what sha boo ya is! I love seeing pews and getting that krack a lack a up and running. Also did you see on the pow they are adding more to wham o! well? let us know what you think or if you think its a good idea to use :) <!-- SC_ON --> submitted by /u/Ok-Cobbler-1649 (https://www.reddit.com/user/Ok-Cobbler-1649)

I wrote a piece about what it means to be a programmer in 2025 – would love your thoughts
https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/1ks4p1o/i_wrote_a_piece_about_what_it_means_to_be_a/

<!-- SC_OFF -->Hey folks,
I’ve been thinking a lot about how programming is changing—especially with the rise of generative AI. It feels like the job isn’t just about writing code anymore, but more about guiding and shaping conversations, both with humans and machines. I tried to capture some of those thoughts in an article I just finished:
👉 How Programming Has Changed Forever – Inside the 2025 mindset — and how to thrive alongside AI It’s not a hype piece—it’s more of a reflection on how we work, think, and what skills still matter. I also share how I wrote the article using the same back-and-forth workflow I now use for coding with AI. If you give it a read, I’d really appreciate any feedback or pushback. Curious how others see this shift. Thanks! <!-- SC_ON --> submitted by /u/mikaelainalem (https://www.reddit.com/user/mikaelainalem)

Acer laptop keeps doing this help?

<!-- SC_OFF -->I got an Acer swift Go 14 less than a year ago and the fingerprint ID worked fine until about a few months ago it says “this option is currently unavailable” for not just the fingerprint now, but also the facial recognition and Pin. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the fingerprint windows hello recognition and nothing. I’ve restarted it multiple times I’ve checked it has all the recent updates. Another thing it does is pop up with an Acer anti virus thing and it doesn’t leave my screen unless I click renew and then I edit out if it so idk.

We made our entire codebase searchable with semantic search in under 50 lines of Python
https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/1ks5pxd/we_made_our_entire_codebase_searchable_with/

<!-- SC_OFF -->We’ve been experimenting with AI tools for software development, but ran into the same problem: even the smartest agents get lost in big codebases. They hallucinate helpers, miss logic that’s already written, and can’t recall the structure of the system. So we built a semantic search layer for our codebase using Ducky AI (https://ducky.ai/?utm_source=reddit-programming&utm_medium=post&utm_campaign=technical-use_case&utm_content=semantic-code-search). No infrastructure or vector DB setup required. Just 50 lines of Python. Here’s the blog post with full code (https://ducky.ai/blog/semantic-code-search?utm_source=reddit-programming&utm_medium=post&utm_campaign=technical-use_case&utm_content=semantic-code-search), setup, and a breakdown of how we structured the documents, indexed them, and queried them using natural language. Would love feedback or thoughts from others building AI dev tools or working with RAG for code. <!-- SC_ON --> submitted by /u/superconductiveKyle (https://www.reddit.com/user/superconductiveKyle)
