I could ask you the same thing. Who are you to tell a person they're not allowed to criticize someone else's public actions?

If committing thousands of lines of unreviewed AI generated code is "doing their best", I'd argue that them not contributing anymore would be a net benefit for the project.

Maybe so, but that becomes irrelevant when you consider that the new, better quality instantly becomes the expected baseline. So the price of the "baseline" quality is going up regardless. Let's look at GPU prices as an examp

Similarly, a few years ago, I would've never expected "my magic code generation machine is doing all my work for me now, I don't even bother looking at what it does anymore!" to reach the Hacker News home page on a regul

"Vibe coding" implies the changes weren't reviewed. That's the most common definition of the term. Even if the developer himself didn't say that, though, it's safe to assume no AI generated commit beyond a very

Yes, he is free to do whatever he wants with it. And others are also free to say that what he's doing is bad and is causing them problems when trying to use this well established software that is known for being stable and reliable.

Why should a random user bother analyzing the code when the "developer" didn't bother doing the same before committing huge chunks of AI generated code? The effort put into the issue was roughly the same as was put into the

Prices have been very obviously trending up, not down. Even open weights models are becoming more expensive with every release. Computer hardware is ballooning in price.

I wonder what went so wrong that "if you don't understand [thing] you shouldn't be building [thing]" is now considered a controversial statement.

The author wanted to thank someone who put real human effort into helping him, and call out Amazon for firing that person and other support staff to replace them with AI. He decided the right way to do this would be to use AI to generate a

As an engineer, it's easy to look at every problem and think to yourself: "There is a perfect solution for this, we just haven't found it yet." Yet, as the years go by, I find myself accepting a less idealistic answer: M

In theory, that can happen, yes, but in practice, it hasn't been a problem for me. Good third party libraries generally don't leave uninitialized properties laying around for you to trip on, and I find the ability to set non-nulla

For me, it's the exact opposite. Every time I work with PHP, I wish I could have TypeScript's properly typed arrays and dictionaries instead of the janky untyped 2-in-1 mess it actually has.

Triple the price of the last Flash model ($3 -> $9 per 1M output). Quickly approaching Sonnet prices. Feels like the AI pricing noose is tightening sooner rather than later.
