What a shitty reply. You should feel bad you took time to write this.

I like writing things like postgres extensions, implementing research papers in rust, large scale data pipelines. Working on ML research and more!

Please be gone.

Here's an example. My implementation of adaptive radix trees in rust with hot caching for improved query throughput in text search.

I'm not sure he intended it as an insult. Despite not using LLMs for HTML or JavaScript often (if at all), I was under the impression that it was one of their strong areas.

In my experience, at least in circles I've been around, I have found other developers who are a little too high on their own supply so to speak use "hurr durr web dev" as the "easy not real dev" insult.

So I both wanted to shame that in case they were and also categorically show otherwise.

I mean when I was pure SO debugging I would say a solid 70% of the responses did not work. Different stack different bug ect.

LLMs even if they can't guess the right answer can search the documentation really well.
