It's an illusion of intelligence. Just like when a non technical person saw the TV for the first time, he thought these people must be living inside that box. He didn't know the 40,000 volt electron gun being bombarded on phosphor

Looks like you either have not worked with any human or with an LLM otherwise arriving at such a conclusion is damn impossible. The humans I did work with were very very bright. No software developer in my career ever needed more than a par

A wise man from Google said in an internal memo to the tune of: "We do not have any moat neither does anyone else." Deepseek v4 is good enough, really really good given the price it is offered at. PS: Just to be clear - even the m

Anyone remembers the GitOps thingy called flux? Weave was the company name. Git and Kubetnetes configuration cannot go hand in hand. You cannot go back in past indefinitely because cluster state might not be that reversible. If so, git is u

Docker swarm is good enough for most cases if the black plague called Microservices isn't in your stack. Basecamp is running successfully with Kamal and surely making more money than all the Kubernetes experts combined on this platform

Software is code and code is documentation. Do you know MAME that is documenting the arcade consoles as code? And that they work is just a side effect and is not an intended goal? That doesn't mean that MAME is a trivial project. Far f

Interesting take. We are not going to talk about Office, Windows, Adobe or Autodesk products here. Neither Linux kernel. Just classified ads or e-commerce platforms such as gumroad and shopify are complex enough that a single person cannot

I use claud CLI or OpenCode. The "Regenerate" example is just to illustrate that same prompt would produce different output each time. You're rolling a dice.

A heavily vibe coded CLI would have tons of issues, regularly. LLMs over edit and it's a known problem.
