How can you write any of this when you said you just started liking LLMs with Astra, a model that released two weeks ago. You're whipping out a bunch of made up stats trying to describe large swaths of programmers while admittedly being unfamiliar with the capabilities until two weeks ago? Why are you so antagonistic towards people's skepticism if you used them for years and found no value in them? This sounds more like a comment trying to generate massive amounts of FOMO. "If you REALLY put a lot of your money into them, that's when they shine! Don't believe the haters!"

Maybe you should try building something for more than two weeks before making such big declarations, because this really does read like someone who is excited about a novel they wrote last night at 3 am
- moomoo11 15d agobecause astra was a big jump, and it is a new model. i didn't get these types of results with fable. been building agentic workflows since gpt 3 days, and using AI coding agents since 2023. been building stuff for years, so i'm not just some w2/1099 type guy who bike sheds for a living lol this stuff is new... obviously it is a fast moving space.
- lolakutty 15d agoI think he is someone who got burned by some bad software contractors in the past...
- moomoo11 15d agono i’m just a startup founder who enjoys solving problems. already been through one IPO where i was an early employee so i’ve never really had to work with morons.
