Do you actually consider this neighborhood in Palo Alto a city?

Well "mail in voting" in Washington state pretty much means you drop off your ballot in a drop box in your neighborhood. Which is pretty much the same thing as putting it in a ballot box.

So a proud 2 time Trump voted says that NRP lost America's trust because they attacked Trump too many times to a new outlet founded by Bari Weiss? Then after resigning from NPR goes on to work for that same outlet? Forgive me if I find

That's extremely hopeful and also ignores the fact that new hardware will have incredibly high upfront costs.

So if they want to export all of their data they might have to pay you more money to do so? How exactly does that seem fair when they don't agree to the existing price increase?

Way to argue a sentence out of context that has very little to do with the overall post.

Lol misunderstanding a disclaimer in a readme is not refusing to believe something. But my apologies and appreciate the clarification.

Sorry if I came of as prickly, but it wasn't exactly like your parent comment was much kinder. I mean it's pretty simple - there are a lot of big claims that I read but very few tangible examples that people share where the projec

Thanks, it's quite helpful to hear examples like that. When you say you didn't touch a text editor, do you mean you didn't review the code change or did you just look at the diff in the terminal/git?

I don't care about your workflow, that can be figured out from the 10,000 blog posts all describing the same thing. My issue is with people claiming this huge boost in productivity only to find out that they are working on code bases t

I don't think you understood me at all. I don't care about the actual workflow. I just want an example of of a project that: 1. Would have legal, security, or monetary consequences if bad code was put in production 2. Was develope

Thanks for sharing and that is interesting to read through. But it's still just a demo, not live production code. From the readme: > As of March, 2025, this library is very new, prerelease software. I'm not looking for personal

I appreciate the helpful reply, honestly. One other question - are people currently using the app? I think where I've become very hesitant is a lot of the programs that I touch has customer data belonging to clients with pretty hard-no

What type of software are you building with this workflow? Does it handle PII, need data to be exact, or have any security implications? Because I might just not have a great imagination, but it's very hard for me to see how you basica

But at the same time you basically outsourced your brain and any learning that would come from the exercise. So while you now have an app, you've experienced close to 0 learning or growth along the way.

> until I actually started to use some in the same toy project Thats the key right there. Try to use it in a project that handles PII, needs data to be exact, or has many dependencies/libraries and needs to not break for critical bu

So no human reads the actual code that you push to production? Are you not worried about security risks, spaghetti code, and other issues? Or does Claude magically make all of those concerns go away?

by samtp 1y ago
What type of work do you do and what type of code do you produce? Because I've found it to work pretty amazingly for things that don't need to be exact (like data modeling) or don't have any security implications (public apps

Well your perception of time would certainly be longer at that dose. Probably feel like you've lived for centuries.

I would love to hear some clear use cases that people are actually using AI agents for in production on non-trivial matters. It may just be that I'm out of touch, but I've yet to hear any real business critical applications of age

Yeah but once you break things down into small enough steps you might as well just code it yourself.

It seems to be a mix between hiring an offshore/low level contractor and playing a slot machine. And by that I mean at least with the contractor you can pretty quickly understand their limitations and see a pattern in the mistakes they

This is the exact same issue that I've had trying to use LLMs for anything that needs to be precise such as multi-step data pipelines. The code it produces will look correct and produce a result that seems correct. But when you do qual

Well that's exactly what it does well at the moment. Boilerplate starter templates, landing pages, throwaway apps, etc. But for projects that need precision like data pipelines, security - it code generated has many subtle flaws that c
