I think this kind of "hard work" is a perfect fit for AI, and something where the complexity for a human is incorrectly extrapolated to LLMs. Tirelessly wading through heaps of specifications and documentation with very clear goal

The OpenAI moderation endpoint is free and it doesn't count toward the usage limit.

Not the gotcha you think it is considering how common fake loaders are in all application development. They're inserted for a reason, but that's a different topic. We're talking about pure animations here, not loading screens

Setting animations to 0x is famously broken on Android with the UI jumping up and down on transitions. It's a litmus test to spot people falsely claiming they have it disabled without realizing it outs them.

Finally someone not roleplaying. You're the first person who acknowledges the flakiness of the dev options. People are self-reporting when they claim they set it to 0x without realizing it's unusable due to the bugs.

Most people with that opinion keep using apps and devices with animations, but thinking it would be better without them. Very few actually torture themselves like that in practice.

Which the majority of people think is a horrible experience. There's even a sibling comment in this thread pointing that out: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48518721

Play any game with good UI and you will see animations used everywhere. Instant transitions are only good in theory.

That was not my point. Maybe we interpret "can't do their job" differently. That said, outside of HN I don't know anyone writing code by hand anymore except people that can't use it due to compliance or work on PLC

It absolutely damages the argument. Not sure why you think your question is a gotcha.

I think you're in an interesting space where there's a real opportunity to create something fresh. When people are actively looking for alternatives it will be easier to break out of the established norms. What does anti-AI mean?

I responded to a comment about the prose. Why are you not calling out that one instead?

I don't think you know what "gooning" means. It's edgy Gen Z slang and has nothing to do with being British.

I don't see how the publisher is relevant here. It would be the developer saying that.

Yes, but only because it is a translation. Easily the best use case for LLMs.

Not a very deep justification. Probably the easiest thing to grasp for when thinking "how can I make this religious theme fit the narrative?".

Sounds like it doesn't catch everything and they recommend search-and-replace. From their docs: "For example, if you want to replace a variable name with a new name for a large project, use the Replace in path instead of the Renam

That doesn't update documentation or comments referring to the function. I prefer search-and-replace.

I think it's beyond decent. I don't understand how people are not more impressed by this. Just a few years ago the only expectation would be garbled nonsense.

There's no uncertainty here. Every day I ask myself how long something I did would have taken without it. The answer is always crystal clear. It's not hard or difficult at all.
