> So, again, my question to you, friends, is this: if there were an AGI wiping out humanity as we speak, how would you know?

Nice try AGI, but we won't tell you where the kill switch is

Oooh beautiful! Visual Foxpro was the same, only the language changed but their screen designers were almost identical

Stratego ported to Swift for macOS by DeepSeek in under 10 mins for just $2

"if we get on board now then they will take us to extraordinary new places. And after we have arrived, the new adventure will begin"

This is the thought of an AI optimist and the one I share, new adventures, more tools, better results, and a never ending pool of ideas to work on

The original title was "DeepSeek Harness Desktop app for MacOS and Windows"

This new title says nothing, we already know deepseek harness from before, this is a new product, an installable app worth differentiating from just "DeepSeek Harness"

Do the same as I did, ask it to develop a plugin to increase/decrease font and you will see results in one single task, dsh-zoom as a plugin, restart and done

All LLMs work the same to a certain degree, it's a matter of personal preference, token cost and customization. I asked DSH to build a news aggregator for me and it built a really nice app from 30 news sources via rss feeds for less than 50 cents and presto, reading tech news has never been so gratifying

I just installed DeepSeek Harness for MacOS and it's a beast. The same great harness as before but now is an app you just click on your dock to run

All settings and workspaces are transferred so you don't lose anything, the only thing it lacks is a way to increase/decrease font size with cmd + and cmd - so I'll work on a plugin for that

I can't be happier

Edit: Asked DSH for a plugin to increase/decrease font and it delivered. Love it. Then asked for a plugin to ring a bell on questions and tasks finished, of course it delivered flawlessly. The same plugin architecture, extensible by the same AI

Or one hiroshima bomb. Oh wait, nobody to scare here, move along

Next time you find a bug like that, offer it to the black market, you could make millions instead of measly salty peanuts

Duh, check their utility bills?

The only conclusion I get is that the UN is a joke and if the US keeps printing money to buy oil and political submission there won't be any change in the foreseeable future

It is extremely urgent to push for a new Allied Nations organization not headquartered in the US and for them all to drop the dollar and put USA and Israel in check. For Europe to grow a spine, and for China and Russia to step up and stop being complacent with all the bullying going on

The whole world should say enough is enough

China bad, china virus, china rogue, china nukes

"Governments should conduct safety testing on sufficiently capable AI models" or else...

RSI is way closer to reality than "nanotechnological telepathy distributed as a party drug"

I don't deny climate change. I mock media attempts to manipulate sheeple for what they are, cheap shots to scare the shit out of idiots

Oh no, atomic bombs, we all gonna diiiie!

Why not two volcano eruptions? Or half a solar flare? Oh I see, fear is the point. What do we need to vote for now? Who should we hate? What tax are you going to ram down our throats? Sheez

That's one of the most beautiful readmes I've seen in my whole life. Threshold is stunning. I am so impressed even RSI got overshadowed

Shhh, I have slack, jira and trello in my crosshair

This is just an example related to the post itself about porting old games. AI exceeds all expectations. Personally I've been using AI for the last six months in many different scenarios and in all it just blows me away. The more I use it the less code I write

Do you have an example of what you think AI is not capable of in programming? I can give it a try

Not me, AI was fully aware and used it as reference, the readme explains in detail how the original code, SDLPop and PrinceJS were used to build the fork and exactly in what measure

I ported Prince of Persia to Swift for MacOS [1] over the weekend using DeepSeek Harness, spent three hours in total, $3 in tokens, and got a playable and enjoyable game bringing back good ol' memories

It is a faithful port of Jordan Mechner's 1989 original game and the guiding idea was just one sentence: port the game exactly, rewrite the engine completely

I didn't write a single line of code or test, not even the readme. I don't know if it delivered swift, assembly or brainfvck as directed but the result is spectacular and I would never had done it in ten lifetimes

Coding is solved, human programming is dead, apps will cost close to zero and those who don't see the writing on the wall are hopeless

All public forums have an astroturfing problem including this one

Google, Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Facebook, etc they all have hundreds of thousands employees and even if they are not explicitly paid to astroturf, they try to be subconsciously loyal to their employer, downvoting everything that goes against their subtle wiring, and happily upvoting every new product or feature launched by their org

That's just human nature, proven in 3, 2, 1...

Spectacular!

Just checking help/about Scissors shows how detail oriented you are. As the saying goes, you paint the wall at the back of the dishwasher so the plumber knows you have good taste

I was going to ask the same, perhaps do it myself as a side project. I see value in it, it definitely should be an app. Swift for MacOS, Rust for Linux (no tauri, react, nothing, just plain optimized rust)

DeepSeek can do it in the blink of an eye, here is what I would do:

- Copy the source to scissor-web, create an empty sibling folder scissor-macos and another as scissor-linux

- Run DeepSeek Harness, create a workspace pointing to scissor-macos start a session and tell DeepSeek to port your excellent app located in folder scissor-web using the latest swift for macos 26

- Watch magic performed for your own delight

- Once finished, do the same for scissor-linux

A couple of hours later you will have three beautiful apps for web, macos and linux. Then ask DeepSeek to translate them to chinese, french, german, italian, spanish, portuguese, russian, etc

Then you will see software development with different eyes

If you use windows, I am sorry but you deserve it

As a programmer, today I can confirm with no room for doubt that programming is dead (programming by humans to be precise, the act of typing code on a premise to present a solution to a problem)

We may consider ourselves the last programmers before the AI era

This is the perspective, not code, coding is solved. The wrong input will produce wrong outputs, so a mediocre dev using AI may produce mediocre results. AI can do everything asked for, code, tests, reviews, fixes, etc but still it can not think, for now

Intelligence is the new currency, but it will be short lived

There is absolutely not a single line of code human created, no matter how abstract or esotheric, that an AI model can not code faster, cheaper and better. None, not one, in the whole history of mankind and computing

Now, code generated by AI, of course it takes time to generate by our current models, trillions of parameters analyzed to produce an output takes time and resources. You don't take credit for that, I stopped doing that. It is the model that deserves the credit. We are not writing complicated code, we are delegating that to AI models and they make take time to resolve the problems they may face, but they still will do it a million times faster than the best of us

Coding remains solved

> forcing companies to increase the quality of their developers

Just don't. Fire them! AI is better than a thousand devs. What you need is testers that know what to test that AI can't, not code or UX/UI (not talking about playwright here) but business intelligence if that is testable, the things that produce results (profits) and the reason it was asked for in the first place, to solve a problem

If the problem was asked wrongly, the result will be wrong too. Fire devs, then PMs, then IT Managers if they really don't know how to outperform AI, and that's exactly the point, they won't be able to do it in code or tests or reviews, only in intelligence, for now...
