Honestly, with a lot of HN debating the merits of LLMs for generating code, I wish it were an unwritten rule that everyone states the stack they're using with it. It seems that the people who rave about it creating a whole product line in a weekend are asking it to write them a web iterface using [popular js framework] that connects to [ubiquitous database], and their app is a step or two away from being CRUD. Meanwhile, the people who say it's done nothing for them are writing against [proprietary in-house library from 2005].
The worst is the middleground of stacks that are popular enough to be known but not enough for an LLM to know them. I say worst because in these cases the facade that the LLM understands how to create your product will fall before you the software's lifecycle ends (at least, if you're vibe-coding).
For what it's worth, I've mostly been a hobbyist but I'm getting close to graduating with a CS degree. I've avoided using LLMs for classwork because I don't want to rob myself of an education, but I've occasionally used them for personal, weird projects (or tried to at least). I always give up with it because I tend to like trying out niche languages that the LLM will just start to assume work like python (ex: most LLMs struggle with zig in my experience).
