this is like ai use in arts to some degree, people don't want to write, they want to 'have written' and collect the social status that they think it confers. People don't want to code or make products better (or even un

tech blogs used to read like actionable readme guides. I couldn't finish it without thinking: what am I supposed to do with this information? The shelf life of the latest and greatest is about 2 weeks in the AI space. I never caught

the feeling of why create anything if it'll just be stolen by AI has to be at least somewhat novel.

reminds me of this woman who had copyright filed against her for playing moonlight sonata. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27004577 if not for the complete hassle and threat to her livelihood, it might be laughable.

with cursor it still feels like coding, all the others are diff checks it seems like.

there's so many apps, I'm sorta where murakami was to filter out novels he'd consider reading. A good app needs to be validated through the sands of time before I consider replacing something that already exists on my machin

Agree that even prior to LLMs those projects weren't terribly welcoming as per Linus' famous email comments (chalk it up to cultural communication differences :) )

the analogy would be that your LLM/agent has a pass at a Spielberg script and peppers his inbox with inane production notes. A system like that would be untenable for all involved.

I - and many, many others - learned flask from his mega-guide that he obviously spent a lot of time working on. I feel bad for people like him who get the brunt of dilettantes who can "code" polluting his time and focus. Reminds

suno produces 7m "professional" songs per day. Can't think of a better example of a slop generator. Many songs that will never get more than a handful of listens if it all.

something to be said for listening to the same cd over and over due to limited options, where you really get to know the tracks inside and out.

I've pretty much avoided it by going to Gmail->Settings and disabling "smart" features: Smart Reply: (Show suggested replies when available.) Smart features: When you turn this setting on, you agree to let Gmail, Chat, and

I feel bad for this generation who will have to listen to prompted eulogies and wedding toasts. And worse for the genuine writers who now will be accused of having done so.

Oh don't me wrong, it's bad and we're going to suffer through terrible web apps for the foreseeable future spat out in the 1000s per day. Like all slop songs, images, videos and articles. Hardly a reward for building someth

Everyone had a chance to learn vanilla js from the mozilla docs but using jquery was much much simpler. Concede that jquery is more difficult than prompting. The issue for me is that prompting a front end and everything looks exactly the

I forget where, but there was a restaurant who locked all phones in a box at your table and if you made it to the end without opening it the table got a free cookie.

at least the lotteries and las vegas publish their odds. Losing to the terrible math is probably better than playing against someone with inside information.

Interesting, would love to see that applied here. Every third ad is about how I can make money on the weather.

these apps should load with this pie chart showing your likelihood of ever making a profit based on what they know about you. "YOU WILL LOSE MONEY ON THIS APP". Like the cigarette packs.

there seems to be great innovation in npm package hacking, but that's about it. Oh yeah, bad uptimes and ruined open source projects. If only AI was left to discrete math brute forcing problems and alphafold.
