Just this week I tried doing something similar with a nasty vibe-coded codebase I was trying to organize. I had Gemini Flash 3.6 classify each function/method in a similar way, giving a few plausible classifications for each (one agen

I was a professional glass artist and auctioned all of my work. When you've done it for years, molten glass keeps the hands busy, but seems to leave the mind free - very easy to listen to a podcast or music while working. But... if I

I have V1 Max, and I think they throttled me for using it too much. I was maybe abusing it, by sending out 8 or 16 review agents at a time. I haven't tried it in a few months, but it went from amazing to unusable really fast.

I've built some tools using AI. A custom GUI that has "copy context" and "copy image" buttons, to make prompting easy, and the camera position is persisted to disk on each change so that the agent can run a command

Also best at OpenSCAD, seemingly for the same reason, at least in terms of "iterate on a design, comparing visual output to target".

Django is the only thing I've used where I've vibe-coded an app, then looked at the code and not been appalled.

Right. No good answer, AFAICT. Just a bad problem. Hard to find a solution that's not worse than the problem itself - same as other weapons, IMO.

Gemini Flash 3.6 High was about 10x faster than Luna xhigh for the work that I tested it for, and it got similar results.

The question was meant to illustrate the actual danger of always-user-aligned AI, not to vote for which one we get to keep. So many here get so worried about guns, but don't think twice about how dangerous AI can be.

Software is a machine with thousands or millions of moving parts. It's always complicated, and complexity is the natural state of complicated things.

I'm pretty sure that the last time I used Cursor was the last time I felt "in the loop." I miss programming. I wonder if there's any going back, or if it's worth it. I get so much more done, now.

I'm using Serena-MCP with the IDEA plugin. It opens up more features than the standard IDEA MCP. Now, you can use a standard Codex (and maybe Claude) subscription inside of a sidebar, and get a lot of the features you mentioned. It&#

I feel two ways about it. I've written some algorithms and architectures for motion control that were good, after many years of chewing on the problem through iterations. I don't think I'll replicate that effort or those re

Current Gemini Flash models can take video input. They're not hyper-specialized coders, but they're better than the competition on many tasks. They seem to be better with spacial reasoning, as well - they are the best choice for

It's user-hostile enough to make users hostile toward your site, for sure. It's not annoying, it's enraging.

Ah, well... I can't say that there's any real hope. I dove in in ~2023, and I'm about as deep in it as one can be. The better I get at it, and the better the agents get, the less time I spend even doing what I do - one promp

Make a copy of your codebase. Go to town on it. Have fun. Doesn't have to be stressful. Plan to throw away whatever happens. Do it in a VM if your nerves demand it. No reason it can't be fun.

Django's admin is great. I think iommi is better for a lot of projects. With admin, you basically just write models, and the entire rest of your app is free. Not quite, but, not far off.

It lets you see the position of the motor's shaft. That's used in some motor control algorithms, even if the motor's position isn't exactly the joint's position.

Tabnine has an IDEA plugin. It's not quite as good as Cursor, in my opinion, but it's better to have Tabnine and IDEA than Cursor and VSCode. It started out as just predictive text, but now it has a chatbot window that you can ac
