It was always easy to copy software (but yes, even easier now). The hard part is competing with the software that you're copying. Software does not exist in a vacuum. They usually have an already established user base, relationships with partner businesses, more domain knowledge due to having to actually think about the problems they are solving and so on.
You can start by copying but at some point you'll have to differentiate, and you might not be able to do so if you don't understand how your sloppy vibe-copied software works.
Same here, I do not see the point of herdr if you're already using tmux. It's very easy to add hooks to your favorite harness to display a notification in tmux when it's done working.
Myeah, the first thing I saw when opening it on mobile is that the top logo is not centered and the menu is not displaying properly ("About" item single on a line with some random left margin).
Not that I care but then I was confused by the two comments here praising the design.
At this point it might be easier to point out articles not written by LLM. Most of them are, I just can't bring myself to read them anymore, it feels like a waste of time. I want to read original thoughts and it's almost impossible to know if this kind of content contains any. I'm tired.
That's a good question... => I didn't think about this, I don't know the answer yet.
That's a great question! => I can tell you understood what I explained and used that understanding to reach the next step of reasoning just like I did.
> If I do ask an LLM another question about something small it will offer solutions but doesn’t offer the solution I think makes sense in the architectures I’ve written.
This is my experience as well, and I've been using Claude Code a lot.
Extremely impressive tools, but they're like fast food. They will solve your immediate problems quickly and cheaply, but you're going to have issues on the long term if that's all you use.
It's true for all automation we do get more comfort. We build systems so that we humans have as little struggle as possible, not realising that struggle is the only reason for existence. By eliminating it, we are erasing ourselves from this world.
You're wasting a ton of tokens doing that though. Right now you don't realize it because they're being heavily subsidized, but you will understand the point of have good orchestration and memory files when you will have to pay the real cost of your use.
I think their current goal is to capture as much market as they can while they still have the best models, their only moat. Look at Anthropic, they are clearly trying to lock their users in their ecosystem by refusing to follow conventions (AGENT.md etc) and restricting their tools exclusively to their own services.
While some of the ideas in this do resonate with me (or at least they're entertaining), it's unfortunate that's it's so obviously LLM generated. And some parts of it, like the INTJ exceptionalism, reek of LLM sycophancy, which then turned into to some kind of god complex...
That's really bad... I don't care if people (probably LLM here) do these kind of mistakes in their own personal tooling. But when you're going to distribute it as some sort of library, it becomes unacceptable.
Write public libraries for solving issues of domains you are an expert in. If your library is LLM generated, it is most likely useless and full of errors that will waste other people's time and resources.
I think curing GAD will mean changing your personality. There's always going to be a before/after you, that's the whole point. The important part is being able to reliably know what the "after you" will be so you can be sure that you want that change to happen.
I keep reading this online but never encounter it in real life. People I work with and for like simple solutions that don't add complexity. It saves them time and money. I really wonder how is it that some people seem to encounter this toxic mentality so much that they assume it is universal. Is it a FAANG/US culture thing where everyone acts based on corrupted incentives?
Me too, everyone around me is into board games, video games, nerdy movies etc and they always assume I'm into them too. It always sucks when I reveal I don't like these things and you see the enthusiasm going off their faces :/
