Apologies - it seems my morning-brain backfired. We’re talking about h.263-era, instead (DivX, Xvid, etc.).

Agreed, it is abolutely an issue. It is quite difficult to find an optimal solution to some problem when every considered new idea is ”definitely the right shape”.

Was the prompt "fuck up my system, please." or how did you manage this? I've used Codex for ages without any of these kinds of issues.

Ahhaha. JBoss, the glorified web-app server that booted for tens of minutes. It was the peak of Java-based over-engineering.

Yep, it is slop. I got 2-3 paragraphs in and closed the tab, as too many LLMisms raised their ugly heads.

> maintaining them In the agentic era, there is no need for maintenance - each artifact is immutable and just-in-time. In case you need a new version, spin up a new artifact. I’m only half-joking.
