He's drunk the kool aid and forgotten that some of us have been working in this industry for decades and got along just fine without AI, while he's busy debugging his technical debt and getting sued for leaking customer data I

Interesting - I'm still making a very liveable wage building projects for small and medium companies, because they don't know their AI from their elbow and don't want to know, they have their own business to run. You forget t

Maybe in your industry but in mine working with small and medium businesses they value reliability above everything else. They don't give a shit whether you use AI or not as long as it's stable and works and are prepared to pay a

Like I said I still use Copilot as needed, I just don't trust Claude to go off on its own and generate a mountain of technical debt that I can't 100% trust. To use your own analogy, there's plenty of carpenters still around f

That's my point - it's great as a tool to talk something through or rubber duck it, but as soon as you just let it loose to slop out thousands of lines a day and never read them all you're really doing is filling your base wi

I tried Claude Code for a week straight recently to see what all the hype was about and while it pumped out a bunch of reasonable looking code and features I ended up feeling completely disconnected from my codebase and uncomfortable. Cance

So if I’m using Tailwibd let’s say, and then I adjust the padding on an element does it update the HTML (or does the agent update my html) with an alternative padding class like p-4 or p-[11px] or something if nothing matches?

I don't think it's that weird. If they sold it as a product then the understanding is that there is a profit motive and profits mean CEO's get paid. If you're asking for donations and holding your cap out, the implicatio

I worked at an ISP way back in the dark ages of 2008 and we were all worried about IP exhaustion then. It's now 17 years later and what do you know, IPv4 is still trucking.

Thing is, if Dave the programmer goes on vacation or calls in sick for the day, hopefully you have a larger team to fall back on and your business doesn't grind to a halt. No one is apparently noticing that if they build their entire b

So true, we’re constantly told that we’re now obsolete, a magic robot can do everything we can do without sleeping and for a fraction of the cost. Except occasionally the robot just doesn’t turn up to work or occasionally he appears drunk o

I’m sorry Dave, the best we can do with this robot is to make it capable of doing your job so you can focus on doing your chores and cooking.
