OP mentioned a local LLM rig plus a rather complex setup from what I understood (I could be wrong). Also, most of the lower end models aren't that good. At this point you can take an experienced dev and start implementing an app using

That's different, though. If 20 other companies can host these models, you still have to trust them. The end result should be cheap hardware that's good enough to large a solid, mature LLM that can code comparably to a fast junior

All the TUI agents are awful at scrolling. I'm on Ubuntu 24.04 and both Claude Code and Gemini CLI absolutely destroy scrolling. I've tested Claude Code in the VS Code and it's better there, but in the Gnome Terminal it'

I was in the same camp until a few months ago. I now think they're valid tools, like compilers. Not in the sense that everyone compares them (compilers made asm development a minuscule niche of development). But in the sense that even

They work better with project context and access to tools, so yeah, the web interface is not their best foot forward. That doesn't mean the agents are amazing, but they can be useful.

Which LLMs have you tried? Claude Code seems to be decent at not hallucinating, Gemini CLI is more eager. I don't think current LLMs take you all the way but a powerful code generator is a useful think, just assemble guardrails and kee

It's not gibberish. More than that, LLMs frequently write comments (some are fluff but some explain the reasoning quite well), variables are frequently named better than cdx, hgv, ti, stuff like that, plus looking at the reasoning whil

Meh. The rest of the world also doesn't have big salaries for software devs. The US is the outlier. It's not just the labor regulations holding Europe back, it's the lack of funding due to not having a unified European digita
