I see many of you focusing on the misuse of "ditches" while you should focus on the use of the word "trust" by those who signed the contract. Pretty sure it will not be the last time we see this kind of reasoning.

Heroku never made sense, that convenience costs too much.

I completely understand what you mean, as creator of boring and stable solutions deployed in production and in some cases still there untouched for nearly two decades. But no, I don't agree about the "it can consider a multitude of options a single person seldom can" part since it's not really what is happening right now, it does not work this way.

Answers to this and other kinds of questions are in my opinion just a watered down version of actual thinking currently. Interesting but still too simple and not that actionable. What I mainly use LLMs for is exploring the space of solutions, that I will then investigate if there is something promising (mainly deep research of topics or possible half broken/random solutions to problems). I'm not really interested in an actual answer most of the time but more avenues for investigation that I didn't consider. Anyway, I'm not saying that AI is useless right now.

Because there already was slop written by humans, and I think that in many cases the AI slop is better looking.

Are you aware that there are people that think that even now AI can do everything you describe?

I understand which category of people you are describing, but this is what a proper programmer actually does:

- Check stackoverflow only for very niche issues, never finds what he needs but reaches a solution reading multiple answers and sometimes used to post a better solution for his issue

- Have his own templates if he does repetitive and boring stuff (common), implements the complex logic if any first and get the rest done as fast as possible being mildly disgusted.

- Imports libraries and often take a look at the code noticing stuff that could be improved. Has private forks of some popular opensource libraries that fix issues or improve performance fixing silly errors upstream. Sometimes he is allowed/has time to send the fixes back upstream. When using those libraries sometimes he finds bugs, and the first thing he does is checking the code and try to fix them directly, no tickets to the maintainers, often opens a PR with the fix directly.

Example please?

One of the few people that has done consistently good open source projects, with very clean and clear vision of what the project should accomplish.

Can't you just say that you used Claude and be done with it? I mean, I don't really care but in general I would refrain from posting "Show HN" with stuff that has been vibed, or state that you did since in that case it's even more interesting from my point of view, like you could describe how you kept everything under control during generation, etc...

I mean, no biggie and I don't understand the reaction but hey, I'm old so...

I wonder if I should really explain or if that would provide a list of things to sanitize before publishing stuff.

If someone has ever written any code is well aware of what can be done in a weekend and especially that no one doing something "in a weekend" will ever add all those useless comments everywhere, literally a few thousand lines of comments. That takes more time than writing code. Comments in Claude style. Other claude-isms all around.

It's ok to vibe things, but just say so, no shame.

And yes, after 5 minutes of looking around I had enough evidence to "prove it". Any moderately competent engineer could.

Did you vibe code this? A few things here and there are a bit of a giveaway imho.

Business model so cool that people over here don't even bother commenting anymore.

Thank you EU I guess?

It's like one of those movies they used to make in the 80s.

No.

"Safety is the first concern", then stop selling these. Even at a third of the speed, good luck surviving any kind of accident.

A solution to what? Serious question, I don't have any issue with the current model. Or are you referring to recent events?

THIS. I think making promises and not actually delivering completely has been a very common strategy (not judging) for many companies for some time.

When will people understand that those very opinionated frameworks with enticing tutorials just ruin your life in the long term?

I see someone citing Spring(yikes) elsewhere, that falls in the same category as FastAPI. You don't need Spring most of the times, a simple dependency injection library and small frameworks to handle the web routing or specific features you need are often enough (recent contenders to the throne of default app framework have the same issues).

Is this a reputable source guys? Why this stuff is not getting flagged instantly anymore?

onomatopoeia, fixed spelling :)

Cough cough vibing cough cough

When I saw the idea of using LLMs for the reconciliation process I admit that I gasped in horror a little.

They cannot lose, resistance is futile

> but they basically had it all, factory-line produced music with singers and "stage artists" being entirely different people

Wait, wait, I know the history of that genre, it was on a very small scale... compared to modern k-pop I would still consider that normal independent music production :)

This actually reminds me of the Frozen theme song... was very popular at the time. Same thing.

K-pop is probably the most commercial genre that ever existed, song written by some specialist in a studio like all the other ones targeting a very specific audience. This time there is no band with dances or whatever being used to promote the songs, that's the only difference.

I would have found it more interesting if the song topping the charts was from a VTuber or something completely computer-generated, not much like this.

I just want to point out that restarting the session is not a good workaround considering how much context the current session could have (and storing the current state+recovering optimally in a new session (compacting) is not that easy, I consider it an open problem with Claude too).

Reading your message I couldn't help but wonder how many companies(or maybe sectors) could have continuous need for this kind of projects/prototypes. Sound nice though.
