We used to get paid to code now we think we need to pay a subscription fee just to write software. They push marketing campaigns saying Manual coding no more, just vibe code, gain 10x speed for $100.
Then they hit you with hourly and weekly limits, you are wondering when you are going to get cut off. Since LLM at probabilistic it often feels like pulling the lever of a slot machine, hoping our prompt is the jackpot.
To make sure we win, we come up with systems, convoluted agents, context pipelines, rags to load . It feels like it's working, then bam you reach weekly limits.
(Just pay more if you want to keep winning).
I think developers need to wake up.
I myself started to use AI like a fancy debugger ,explainer. I make it walk me though every single line of code it writes.
I notice that i run into limits less, if i get cutoff, i can still make changes

- echelon 1mo agoLook at what open source is doing to the market. The sand magic will be free and abundant for all. The only thing you have to worry about is regulatory capture - if Dario and Sam can convince the US government to regulate and outlaw open source AI, then we're in for a world of hurt.
