So I can tell you don’t use these tools, or at least much, because at the speed of development with them you’ll be knee deep in tech debt in a day, not a month, but as a corollary can have the same agentic coding tools undergo the equivalen

Sorry if this is obvious, but are there actually any systems that "choose one over the other"? My impression's always been it was either vision + LIDAR, or vision alone. Are there any examples of LIDAR alone?

lol. Always fun to watch HN remove hightly relevant topics from the top of the front page. To their credit they usually give us about an hour to discuss before doing so. How kind of them.

I think maybe the point they were trying to make is that despite people on HN being very technically experienced, skepticism and distrust of LLM-assisted coding tools may have prevented many of them from exploring the space too deeply yet.
