Looks great, thanks for sharing! Out of interest, how long did this take to get to its current state?

I've had a number of occasions where claude (et al.) have incorrectly carried out a task involving existing code (e.g. create a widget for foo, following bar's example). In these cases the way I would have done it would be to copy

Out of interest, why that extreme? Just out of principle or some other reason?

How many civil engineers or architects know how to put up scaffolding or lay bricks? That was a little tongue in cheek, but I am genuinely curious what you think the correct approach is? I have seen many teams that do need to have someone

Have you had children?

This sounds roughly on-track, but I agree with GP; Postgres would probably be better (also has great JSON(B) support).

> The truth is that design patterns are at best stagnant in quality and quantity over time (GoF is over 30 years old!), but the quantity and quality of problems is infinite. I think once you have spent enough time in a software space, no

I agree with the first half as it echoes my experience, but the second half hasn't been my exp. To talk about design patterns as not as useful, only to then mention big O notation seems strange to me unless you are in a context where p

I think "collapsing" might be hyperbole. It certainly seems clear that a purely upward trajectory of peace and living standards in the West was not supposed to last. History has its ebbs and flows, I'm sure we have a long way

Presumably a lot of large organisations have private versions of this. Are there similar projects for this that are available for private individuals, even if paid/closed-source?

I think the attack vector most are considering are going to be government-sourced mass-targeting of individuals based on data triggers rather than any particular interest in the individual. The current example being many of the 12,000 annua

In my experience, it has the opposite effect. Those who go straight into work are exposed to the real world, people of different ages and life experience. New grads are still children by comparison to a 19/20 year old who has been work

I have little sympathy for the ad business failing to properly track ad fraud. I don't think the world is fundamentally better off for advertising. On the bot traffic, do we not have better ways to do this that don't involve viola

So not really an issue unless you are someone who makes politics your religion. Fortunately for Framework, outside of select US metropolitan areas, that isn't particularly prevalent.

Have you ever used a display running over 60hz refresh rate?

Yes and no, it's a fair criticism to some extent. Inasamuch as I would agree that different models of the same type have superficial differences. However, I also think that models which focus on higher reasoning effort in general are b

The whole point of the term is to convey that you are only looking at the output and not looking under the hood. If vibe coding a UI, you only look at the UI, not the CSS.

This feels like a classic Sonnet issue. From my experience, Opus or GPT-5-high are less likely to do the "narrow instruction following without making sensible wider decisions based on context" than Sonnet.

Out of interest, how does one get out of that scenario?

Not to mention if you have suddenly have 1 million more people a year, many of whom are not in good health, you will suddenly have a lot more demand on that already broken and under-funded system.

You are absolutely right to point this out. However, I don't think many people in this thread are actually confused. It's rather clear that this scheme has about as much to do with immigration as the Online Safety Act has to do wi

And yet people still stare blankly when you explain that the civil service and cronies run the country, not the politicians.

I've typically heard the term "tactics" used to describe the lower level execution as opposed to the higher level "strategy".

Out of genuine curiosity, what about this do you think is bad leadership? And, if I may, what would good look like?

Interesting. Do you really think that? My initial assumption would be that there are a lot, likely a majority, of parents who have had next to no advice on how to raise kids. Furthermore, I would posit that many of them were not raised in p

I doubt many on HN actually use Chrome. Instead preferring Firefox or one of the many Chromium browsers (Brave, Arc etc). I agree that there isn't a reason to use Chrome when Chromium exists, although which Chromium flavour and whether
